Probably agree with Argo. The Americans comes to mind but I haven’t gone back and watched it again since it aired. The Wire had three phenomenal seasons and two meh ones, most of the other marquee shows fizzled out or made themselves into Events that nobody really cared about a week later. Twin Peaks is a contender, though. I think the weird way it unfolded (two series separated by two plus decades, movies, etc) might work in its favor. Breaking Bad wasn’t that great.

Twin Peaks is up there for sure. Though that patch mid season two maybe keeps it from "fully realized" status. That and the uncertainty whether it's over yet.
The Americans is also a great call. Like you, I haven't revisited the show yet. But I think this one might also be a fully realized masterpiece. Though I still prefer Mad Men, I think.
