Who doesn’t love franchises? I know that I do. Even more so, when you are watching movie franchises or even specific genres, you almost start to wonder where they rank among the other films. Because of this, I have decided to take a deep dive into franchises, genres, and even reality TV shows and rank them in the order of which I prefer them. 

Of course, rankings spark conversation because often times one person’s rankings vary from another person’s rankings. Although that may be the case, don’t be throwing stones at these rankings; maybe discuss where you think I may have it wrong. I love the idea of great conversation, especially in the film and TV space. So let’s dive into the rankings and sound off in the comments.
