Rules & what counts

IMDb Top 100 TV Series Quiz: Rules & What Counts

Name the 100 highest-rated TV series on IMDb. The board ranks them from 1 to 100, in the order of the IMDb Top 250 TV chart.

Each card shows the rank, the years on air and one key person. You type the title.

The key person is the creator of the series. For a documentary, it is the presenter or the director. For an anime, it is the author of the manga.

IMDb users give each series a score from 1 to 10. IMDb puts the series in order with these scores and the number of votes.

The quiz shows no posters and no stills. TV artwork is not free to publish, so the years and the key person are the hints.

How to play

Just start typing. The quiz checks your answer at every keystroke. There is no submit button.
A correct title flips its card. You can answer in any order.
Short forms count where players use them. You can type a title without "The" at the start, or the first part of a long title.
The original title in the language of the series also counts.
Spelling is forgiving. Capitals, accents, colons and hyphens are ignored.
A famous series that is not in the top 100 clears the input, so you know that the quiz read the guess.
The timer starts at your first keystroke and counts up. Give Up ends the run and shows every series that you missed. Progress saves automatically.

What counts in this quiz

The first 100 series of the IMDb Top 250 TV chart on 29 October 2026.
Series from all countries and in all languages count. Animated series, documentaries and mini series count too.
"From" before a year means that IMDb gives no end year. The series can still be on air.
IMDb lists one anime twice: the original series and its English version. Both cards have the same title, so one correct answer turns over both cards.

What's not included, and why

Movies are not here. IMDb has a different chart for movies.
Single episodes and TV movies are not here.
Series below rank 100 are not here.
The chart changes a little every day, because users vote every day. The quiz updates the ranking from time to time, so a series near rank 100 can come in or go out.

Good to know

IMDb gives the United States as the first country of 43 series, and the United Kingdom as the first country of 25 series.
15 series on the board are anime from Japan.
18 series are documentaries. David Attenborough presents or narrates 8 of them.
26 of the 100 are mini series, with one season only.
The oldest series on the board started in 1959. The newest started in 2025.
