Most of them fail, even ones full of female characters. If you have a mixed ensemble cast it’s not unusual for it fail both the Bechdel test and the reverse Bechdel test because it’s rare for only the men or the women to have a conversation without talking about the opposite sex. Remember the test was originally invented to help lesbians find movies they’d like.
Take Game of Thrones for example. It has a lot of well written three dimensional women, but they’re spread far apart from each other. When they do interact it’s usually to talk about their place in society with regards to the men and their plans. A lot of episodes do pass, but not as many as you’d think, and only barely.
I haven’t sat down to do a critical analysis or anything, but I bet 95% of Breaking Bad episodes would fail the test. There’s maybe 3.5 major female characters (Skyler, Marie, Lydia who came in late, arguably Andrea) and they rarely talk to each other. I remember Skyler and Marie in early seasons arguing about Marie’s shop lifting. Other than that every conversation I remember was about Hank or Walter.
I’d think similar reasoning would apply to the Sopranos, the Wire, The Shield, etc. The Wire had a lesbian couple, but they weren’t a focus.
For fun, how about shows that not only regularly pass the normal test but fail the reverse Bechdel Test? I’d guess most Orange is the New Black episodes would fail. Most of the cast is female. Piper’s boyfriend talks to his dad, but usually about Piper. There are a couple guys on the prison staff, but they tend to talk about the prisoners or their boss Fig, who is a woman. The readers of Dykes to Watch Out For (where the test originated) probably love this show.
How about Girls? Never saw it, but I’m to understand it’s woman centric.
Some Western animated shows would fail a reverse. The Legend of Korra might regularly fail both because of the ensemble, but later seasons have a majority female cast. Especially the last season, with its female villain.
