Favorite "Pure" TV Show

What's your favorite pure* TV show? Break it down into as many genres as you like

*for this thread I'm talking live-action shows not based on something from another medium like books or comics

Here's some of mine

Comedy: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
This is my show that I could just keep cycling through on Netflix (until they took it off

) The Gang gets themselves into so many absurd situations that lead to the funniest exchanges and lines of dialogue. Classic show, probably my all time fave.

Sci-Fi: The X-Files
This show still holds up pretty well, but I feel the longer it went on the more it was bogged down by its own mythology, which kept getting more and more convoluted. I wouldn't be against a reboot with a more streamlined story and a stronger vision of where it wanted to go at the outset. I appreciate the fact that they revived the series for another couple seasons but honestly they waited a bit too long, and they're still building on the rocky foundation that is the built-up continuity.

Procedural Crime Show: Law & Order: SVU
The best of all the L&Os, undoubtedly. If I turn on a TV and this is on I'll probably just watch it until something else comes on.

Drama: Breaking Bad
I was surprised by how much I liked this show right off the bat. I was too young to get into The Sopranos and I still haven't checked out The Wire so this show kind wins in the drama category by default, but it's still a great show. The showrunners did a great job of creating tension in each episode. A lot of humor in the show too, which I appreciate.

Anyways that's all I have for now, I've been putting off some paperwork so I should probably get back to that
