TV show had the ultimate soundtrack?

Since this section is brand new, and love musics, I wanted to kick things off with a huge question. As I mentioned in the Buffy thread, I used to run a fansite back in the 2000s, so I’m absolute trash for TV soundtracks from that era.
It got me thinking: which series actually delivered the best overall soundtrack?In my opinion, it’s Smallville, hands down. Those songs literally defined the entire decade. Remy Zero, Lifehouse, Vonray... if a song was featured in a Clark and Lana scene, it instantly went viral before "going viral" was even a thing. It was peak early 2000s alt-rock perfection. What about you guys? Which show had the tracks that stuck with you forever?
