I have never read Troilus and Cressida or Cymbeline, but King Lear is my favorite of the tragedies, followed closely by Hamlet. He's one of the best writers ever, for sure, but that doesn't mean all of his plays make for compelling reading.
--Blame Jared--
Macbeth is still my favorite, and Troilus and Cressida is my least favorite by far.
