Given I've only seen all of Saul, I'll say Saul.
Still got Bear and Andor to finish. Everything feels a slog these days and I always just end up throwing an old Trek or Simpsons on.

Mini series and half hour long episodes are a slog to get through too?

It’s not out for a few days yet, but it’ll probably be Emily in Paris Ahh I’m going to have to wait till the new year to watch it as I’m flying tonight. Love that show. Cobra Kai is great, too. I try to do top threes for these lists, but if I were to extend it to five, these two would probably round it out for me.

Forgot about We Own This City too, very good. Can see The Wire influence with it. Agreed. I think Wayne Jenkins Day should be an actual bank holiday.

Easy to spot the people who don’t have Apple TV with some of these lists.
Only just resubscribed this past week. Bad Sisters: done. Severance: started

Oh shit, totally forgot Peacemaker.
If we're doing seasons of existing shows, then Top Boy too.

I just realised I forgot all about Station Eleven.
That’s my SOTY. It was a beautiful thing.

I haven't watched anything new this year, to my eternal shame.
The latest seasons of The Orville and Rick and Morty were both excellent.

Does everyone agree that in The Bear it was a horrible tease that we got the riff from New Noize by Refused multiple times but it never hit the ‘can I scream?!’ breakdown

Mini series and half hour long episodes are a slog to get through too? It's rare I actively sit down and watch really and I'm normally not doing a series on my own, so have to coordinate with people. I can count on one hand the big TV shows I've seen in the last few years.

You could try watching TikTok videos, they're pretty short

Blimey Peacemaker was indeed this year.
That's not just SOTY. That's show of the century that is. Can't remember last time I had so much fun watching something. Probably the A Team when I was 8.

Yeah Peacemaker probably number 2 for me after HotD.

Post by simple on Dec 22, 2022 16:16:31 GMT
I loved Devs.
I know its not a prestige brand and its a small sample but I’m pretty sure everything I’ve seen branded as FX has been great

Just finished The Bear, so finally able to vote:
This Is Going To Hurt Andor Industry S2
I had to double check if TIGTH came out this year, because it feels like years since I watched it, yet it also feels like it was only yesterday given how much of it stuck. Grim, bloody, tragic, and absolutely fucking hysterical.

No way was This Is Going To Hurt this year. It feels like two maybe three ago.
Fantastic show though.

Another vote for TIGTH. Brilliant, gut-wrenching show.

I'd forgotten about that. I gave it a swerve as it seemed too traumatic and likely to really piss me off.
