979 recorded names on October 21, 2026, 738 at 85 or higher. The highest recorded score on this question is 100.

High scores tend to hide in catalogues rather than in headlines, so sweep through many countries, decades and formats instead of recalling the biggest hits. Anything with its own series entry counts if it holds at least 8.5 from a thousand or more voters, while feature films, standalone episodes and titles below either threshold are excluded.

How to approach it

Begin with a wide recall sweep rather than one narrow genre: list acclaimed dramas, comedies, miniseries, animated shows, documentary strands and reality formats you can name from any decade or country. Then verify every candidate against its own ratings page, reading the average score and the vote total together, because clearing one threshold does not guarantee the other. Build the shortlist in groups so gaps become visible and you can hunt for a title to fill each gap. Weigh obscurity against certainty: a household name is safe but will be shared with thousands of players, while a title you know well and few others will recall pays far more. Never submit a guess you have not checked.

Get a hint

Start wide: the band is crowded with series from every region and era, including animation, documentary strands, miniseries and long-running dramas that never travelled far beyond their home audience.

A little more

Sort candidates by format and by how widely they were distributed: a single-season drama, a niche comedy or a non-fiction series shown mainly at home is far likelier to sit in this band than a global blockbuster.

One step further

Before submitting, check both numbers on the title's own page: a score sitting exactly at the cut-off is accepted, but a famous name with a huge vote count can still fall short if the average is a notch lower.

Why these answers count

Rarity decided the payout far more than reputation did. Familiar, heavily discussed series were named by so many players that they clustered in the lower band, while titles with a small but devoted following filled the 85-point tier: regional dramas, single-season miniseries, documentary strands and animation from beyond the usual export markets. The single 100-point answer, Dekalog, shows the ceiling, since a celebrated but comparatively niche European miniseries was remembered by almost nobody else. Read the rest of the top-scoring list, for example 1 Litre of Tears, Alif or Aspirants, and the pattern repeats: productions that rarely crossed borders and non-fiction series are over-represented because competition for them is thin. The practical lesson is to trade a little certainty for obscurity. A verified unfamiliar pick pays around twenty-five points more than an obvious one, and the gap between 85 and 100 is simply how few other people remembered the same title.
