I recently rewatched I, Claudius and was just astounded by how good it was. It's the best thing I've ever seen from the BBC. That's got me thinking of all the other great miniseries I've seen, like The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Band of Brothers, and Masada. The miniseries is such an epic format for storytelling; I wish that it was given its due, but it just doesn't seem to be taken as seriously and isn't as popular as it should be. I'm sure there are some really great ones out there that I'm missing. Give me some that I should track down!
Top five TV miniseries, anyone?
