I must confess that only until a couple of years ago, I was never really taken away with TV. It wasn't nearly until the end of college that I discovered this medium and boy I am all the more thankful for it. In the last few years, I've binge watched a number of shows, whether it be
Lost or
Battlestar Gallactica and goddammit, I love everything about Television. We've come to a point where people get just about as excited if not more so for TV shows than movies. I mean,
Breaking Bad, Mad Men, Games of Thrones, now these are superbly crafted shows and all had high points this year.
Breaking Bad came to a predictable but very solid close, and well
Dexter....uh let's just say is thankfully over. TV welcomed some new shoes, I got to see a few of these, but there's still a lot I haven't seen.
The Americans is a great new show on FX and shows that's this network ain't messing around, they make great TV. Also, Netflix proved it could do some good, break some ground and brought us some seriously high-caliber shows. You've heard all about it, but yeah,
House of Cards is damn good and it in no way disgraces the original English version. Didn't see that one coming, ehh? You hate politics, well this show makes it so damn entertaining that you'll hate it even more (and I mean that in the best way possible). So, without further ado, here's a list of some of my favorites:
1) The Americans
2) Boardwalk Empire
3) Breaking Bad
4) Eastbound & Down
5) Game of Thrones
6) Hannibal
7) House of Cards
8) Justified
9) The Newsroom
10) Shameless
Honorable Mentions: Arrested Development, Covert Affairs, Totally Biased with W. Kamau, Bell, 30 Rock & It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
