Which are the best miniseries ever?

Posted on 07/27/2014 7:40:44 PM PDT by MNDude

I don't watch TV much these days, so I can't say what have been popular miniseries in the past decade or so, but I remember there used to be big budget miniseries on TV all the time (A.D., The Winds of War, Roots. Etc). In your opinion, what were the greatest miniseries of all time?

Roots is great, especially if you watch it backwards so it has a happy ending.
