    The Penguin.

    I never expected much from it, but it is excellent. A show about a villain that doesn’t say away from him being a villain.

    Only Murders in the Building (season 4).

    Every season of this show has been fun and this season was no different. So many fun characters this season, but Paul Rudd was my favorite.

      The acting in that show is great all over. One of my favorites too! Richard Kind is such a hilarious actor. It was cool to see him in a more serious role.

    Man what a year for shows I actually think. We got the obvious big hits like Fallout and Shogun, but there were some smaller ones that I think were far better than people recognize.

    Extraordinary:
    Really what a fun show that does a great play on the superpower tropes and does such a fun dance of the cast being terrible people that you want to root for.

    Scavengers Reign:
    Woah what a powerhouse of an emotional animation roller coaster. So fantastic, so alien. Fully took advantage of what the medium could do that no other could and proved why animation is still the truest art can get.

    Snowpiercer:
    Maybe a bit of a controversial pick and especially since it was the last season but it was fun.
    I really enjoyed that they took the comic and held themselves true to the sweeping arcs and messages and even each season matched each book as if viewed through a foggy lens to keep it original while recognizable.
    Cinematography definitely took a hit first few episodes of the last season but then it balances back out and you can feel a desperate need for a happy ending in a sad story. Still lots of fun and very Snowpiercer the whole time.

        What’s on netflix is all there is. The stuff introduced early in the session gets wrapped up. The stuff introduced late in the season intended for season 2 won’t get resolved. It’s still worth watching imo.

    Shogun is the best TV I’ve seen in many, many, years. Maybe the best.

      Holy shit you’re right. I wanted so bad for it to continue and it’s so good that it leaves me wanting more and doesn’t oversaturate. Great show

    Shogun and The Penguin were the standouts for me. I’m in the middle of watching a Korean drama called “The Trunk”, and if it doesn’t shit the bed in the latter half of the series, I would put it as an honorable mention.

    Shrinking. We’re on season 2 now. Such a good show. Great character development. Harrison Ford is excellent as a cantankerous psychologist.

    Slow horses. Gary oldman is hilarious. Spy show thriller series.

      This is my vote. I usually don’t go through a show that quickly, and they’re already filming the next few seasons

      Who is X-Men 97 for? Is it for kids? For nostalgic adults? I don’t know. I bounced off of it real hard.

    I did not watch a lot of shows this year, but I think the one I liked the most was Agatha All Along

    Season 2 of The Devil’s Hour was chef kiss so that would probably be my pick

    I have barely watched any new shows but Hazbin Hotel - I can’t believe I never watched the original Youtube version, anyways I’m obsessed (yes, I know it’s animated but I don’t watch that many animated shows, so I’m not joining the animation community)

    I watched a few good ones this year. Shogun has already been mentioned and it’s phenomenal!

    The penguin has started out really gripping my attention. (I’m on episode 4)

    Misfits and Magic 2 was fun, energetic and well made.

    I just realized I haven’t watched that many shows this year. Probably a down side of rewatching The Office every few months
