I did this about 7 months ago using a Flourish datasheet, but it was clumsy. I’ve now retooled it and got a better setup for quicker adding of votes. So as it was then:
Rather than making a Google Survey like r/television does for its yearly vote - that doesn’t capture nuance and possibly provide enough shows to account for taste variety, I’ve decided to simply ask people to list their top 10 favourite shows. Your 10th choice will give the show 1 point, your 9th will give it to 2 points etc with the 1st choice getting 10 points. Eurovision style.
I’ll reply to all comments acknowledging that I’ve recorded them.

- The Twilight Zone (original)
- Community
- The Good Place
- Night Court (original)

Added. Although what Twilight Zone version is that?
Good catch! Both are good but I meant original series, same for Night Court
Edit: added to post
Got it. I was aware of another Night Court, but I did assume that was the original too because the more recent one is hardly on the same tier reputationally lol

1 Twin Peaks 2 Star Trek TNG 3 Star Trek DS9 4 Arrested Development 5 Fleabag 6 Wonderfalls 7 Dead Like Me 8 Farscape 9 House 10 X-Files``` Basically a list of all the series I enjoyed enough to finish and would watch again.Added. I’m assuming Twin Peaks is the original one?
I’d consider the new stuff as an additional season, but if they’re considered separate, original and leave the rest of the list as is for simplicity.
Favorite 10, that are currently airing or all time?
Of all time.
Fiction or non fiction? With sports being in the the non fiction cat.
I do recall some people submitted variety shows and panel shows as part of their top 10 and stuff the last time. I didn’t quibble.
Awesome working on the list now.
This is really hard, but I’ll give it a go. Here’s my list, but in no specific order, it’s just too hard to compare different genres against each other.
X-files, Arcane, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Blue Eye Samurai, The Boys, Castelvania, Futurama, Mr Robot, Pantheon, Severance.
Honarable mentions go to Bodies and Rick and Morty.
I have it set up so its a top ten I put entries in.
