The Orville really should be on that list. Season 3 was fantastic.
I haven't watched all of those shows, but the ones I have were all great. Interesting that Rings of Power didn't make the cut - I agree with that. The writing just wasn't there.

Ok so get back to me when Disney, HBO, Prime, etc, are all perfect and aren't exploiting anyone anymore and have not ever ruined or cancelled anything.
Do you seriously think Netflix is the only company that is bad? That's adorable.

Outer Range I thought was pretty solid on Prime.

I loved the sandman as well and consider it slept on but did it get great reviews? I remember people not enjoying it but that diner episode alone to me was one of the most engaging episodes of tv I’ve seen in awhile.

mainstreetmark t1_j226iw8 wrote
I watched some shows but an issue I seem to have is forgetting what streaming channel they were on.
It seems like an easily solved problem, but even Netflix hides the “continue” list.
It is stupid to have to check multiple services to see if your show was there. And when you do, they don’t make it apparent.
TV is hard to watch.

I love using my appletv because of this, there is a unified watchlist across apps, so every time a new episode pops up it appears there and just loads the right app for me.

edgerunners is one of the best videogame adaptations ever, along with arcane
lordmorpheus2000 t1_j24p72q wrote
In my personal opinion- arcane is the much better show out of the two but edgerunners is easily the best video game adaptation if you get what I mean.
DarkenedOtaku t1_j24qepc wrote
arcane easily surpassed edgerunners in terms of character development and story and worldbuilding(and having a season 2) but edgerunners is definitely more accurate to the game, honestly i still kinda prefer edgerunners to arcane

This is a great list. The Offer was one of the great shows that I always forget to recommend. Glad it was on there.
If Primal and Arcane were on this list, it would have been perfect.

if your football team have more loss than win, you can't really claim that your team had a 'Ridiculously Good Year of Football'
ItsAmerico t1_j220fla wrote
That’s a pretty moronic analogy.
Your football team is the same team. All tv shows are not made by the same people. So if your team does shit, that’s your team constantly doing poorly. Bad tv shows don’t diminish the good ones cause they’re generally not made by the same people.
MannerAlarming6150 t1_j21npbs wrote
TV isnt the team though, it's more like the league. And TV this year was amazing. Individual shows may have sucked, but overall an incredible year for TV

Sturgeon's Law, friend. 90% of everything is shit. One cannot judge a year based solely on there being more bad content than good content; I doubt any year in the history of television would pass muster by that measure.

Once I saw the overrated Wednesday and House of Dragon, I knew that list was bogus lol
lordmorpheus2000 t1_j24n0na wrote
Haven’t seen Wednesday so can’t comment on that but HOTD isn’t overrated. Its not a masterpiece or anything like GoT S1-4 but its easily ten times better than anything in S5-8 and easily the best fantasy shows out of all the plethora of fantasy shows these days. Its pretty good imo. And a mostly faithful and respectful adaptation.
SilverSuferNorr t1_j24vru3 wrote
I think HoTD easily beats Wednesday but the 2nd half drag. Wish they stayed with the beginning a little longer.
lordmorpheus2000 t1_j24wrqe wrote
Second half drag? Bro they gave us so much backstory from like 20 pages! The first eight episodes before >!viserys’ death!< is like the prologue in dance of dragons and probably only like 20 pages. Its like a layout of the events leading up to it. And they translated it to screen pretty nicely. The real story of the dance of dragons begins after that and its pretty good we got the prologue since ryan and grrm wanted to do it and convinced hbo to. Hbo reportedly wanted to start the show right after >!viserys’ death!<
SilverSuferNorr t1_j24yp0a wrote
Yup it drag. The best performances was of course Paddy. The rest was predictable. And I hate using that word but it was.
Predictable doesn't mean bad btw it was just things were literally falling into place with characters doing the most weirdest things seemingly to get themselves killed.
For instance, the one guy berating the King daughter in open court and not expecting to be killed? Wtf lol
So many instances of that nonsense. Nah first half was better and could had more development had they stuck with it more.

Wednesday was so fucking dull !!
SilverSuferNorr t1_j24kx5t wrote
So true. What's funny is how people are down voting my comment about Wednesday, instead of saying why it's not boring.
I'm not trolling but it's like Riverdale and Sabrina. If anyone seen those shows they know it's true.
No way Wednesday should be one of the best shows on tv. That quite embarrassing. It's beyond overhype
skaomatic t1_j24mnz3 wrote
Totally agree , I really wanted to like Sabrina but also terrible . I found both shows really geared towards teens . Ultra cringy jokes .
SilverSuferNorr t1_j24vhc6 wrote
I don't mind cringe jokes but Wednesday just went overboard with it.
I can see that getting full after the 2nd season.
Sabrina was pretty interesting the 1st season but midway in 2nd season it just became unrecognizable. I st

why was 2019 ridiculously good
only got into tv during lockdown
pm_me_reason_to_livx t1_j21cqua wrote
because the good shows were reeeeeeaaally fucking good and left an impact.
that year we had Demon Slayer, Euphoria, Crash Landing on You etc. also personal hidden gems like Too Old to Die Young etc. And a whole lot more I'm forgetting. TV just went into creative overdrive.
As someone who've been watchin' shows religiously for like a decade now, trust me 2014 and 2019 are the best years in television over the past decade.
edit: why the downvotes? 😐
static_func t1_j21mm7x wrote
Bro you can't say all that and then start with Demon Slayer. It's pretty but just generic shonen anime
Meanwhile Vince Gilligan managed to stick the landing on over 10 years of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul this year. For the 3rd time.

> Bro you can't say all that and then start with Demon Slayer. It's pretty but just generic shonen anime
you wildin' 😅 but whatever you think about demon slayer... you can't deny its impact.
Better Call Saul is just one show though... when i implied 2019 being a much better year than 2022, it's about how many good shows there were and how good those good shows were.
2019 was fuckin' great dawg. I'm just remembering everything, but to add more: The 2nd seasons of both The OA and Succession dropped that year (arguably their best seasons). Looking For Alaska was fucking great too. The Promised Neverland was incredible (before it fell off in season 2). etc. etc.

I can't deny any "impact" I'm unaware of. And I only listed 1 show because this article already lists plenty of examples.

> I can't deny any "impact" I'm unaware of.
don't you watch the show, or are you just not linked to the anime fandom like that? i'm not either as im just a casual, but even i know there hasn't been a bigger anime than demon slayer since demon slayer. it's one that really broke out mainstream. even the Japanese prime minister cosigned it.
> And I only listed 1 show because this article already lists plenty of examples.
i mean yea there'll always be plenty of examples in any given year, but my point is i could list even more and better examples for 2019. 😅
bruh i've been watching close to 100, sometimes 100+ shows a year since 2016 - 2017. and believe me... 2019 is a strong fucking year! I forgot to mention Watchmen came out that year. Fuck... The Boys came out that year too! It was a solid year whether you like anime, k-drama, prestige drama or even avant-garde television. solid year.
static_func t1_j21w14q wrote
You sure are starting to list a bunch of shows that are significantly better TV than Demon Slayer and would have made much better examples

what's your beef with Demon Slayer?? 😂 it's a widely beloved show.
But yea Demon Slayer and the 3 others I said in that first reply were just the first ones I thought of in the moment. I knew there were plenty other options I could've chose (thus why i put "etc").

What do you mean? Under the banner of heaven has some impeccable acting performances. Wyatt russell absolutely kills it in his supporting role.
