TV in 2016: Very very good

Hoooooly smokes TV in 2016 was so good omg! Here is a list of tv shows made this year that I LOOOOOVED. It feels like there are so many! In a little bit of a particular order:

BASKETS. My god, I love this show. I love everything and everyone in this show. 4EVA.

BrainDead. This one too. Everyone was great. It was so much fun. RIP.

The Night Of. It made me so itchy but it was worth it. Vote #1 John Turturro to be in everything pls.

Stranger Things. Few things are better to me than adventures of kids riding bikes through the 'burbs.

Search Party. Feel like every show I've listed so far I wanna say how much I love the cast. This too.

Love. Oh man this was SO LONG AGO. 

Divorce. Who knew Thomas Haden Church was so great? Oh everyone? Ok.

The Good Place. This is on some dumb break & if it doesn't actually come back I will be MAD.

3%. This Brazilian dystopian thriller series was very enjoyable. How good is Netflix, guys, really.

OJ Made in America. Good and better than the dramatised version for sure.

American Crime Story. Feel like this got a bit TOO much hype? Luv u Sarah Paulson, tho.

Last Chance U. Ahh I forgot about this! Rude. Probably the best 2016 doco series I watched.

Making A Murderer. Ok here's another doco, technically Dec '15 but it deserves a big mention. Oof.

Noooo I didn't get around to Horace & Pete or Atlanta or the new season of Rectify, I am certain they'd be up there if I did.

Special mentions to shows in second+ seasons that were also still great: Catastrophe, Veep, Togetherness (RIP), UnREAL (although... pushing it, guys, pls take a breath and calm down), Another Period, Silicon Valley, Jane the Virgin, Orange Is The New Black (though I feel like most of that season could've been one episode and just get to the last couple of episodes?), Bojack Horseman, Transparent...

And things I just discovered and got all caught up on:

Difficult People & American Crime. Both of those were SO GREAT. They should get a ranking above those 2nd seasoners above. A++ for all their seasons.

Oh oh also Narcos! And Olive Kitteridge! Damnnnnn.

Thumbs down award goes to Westworld which I got through 5 minutes of, and In Treatment which I got through way too many episodes of before realising there was a billion still to go. 11.22.63 was duuuuumb. Oh and The Crown made me develop a napping habit like no other. Pitch started so promising but got disappointingly cheesy and not that great but maybe doesn't deserve a thumbs down I guess. File with Nashville and The Good Wife for easy viewing. There are so many other shows I got through not even a full episode of but there's no need to be so mean about them here.

In conclusion I probably spent too much of 2016 watching tv but what ya gonna do? Recommend some more? Yes please.
