Not only do they provide an excuse to look back and organize your thoughts on the year that was, but they help audiences find more, better TV - whether it’s by discovering diamonds in the rough or giving hastily labeled pebbles a second look. If your picks are too predictable, did you dig deep enough? If they’re too obscure, are you too far removed from popular culture? And can any one person really have seen every top-tier series released over a 365-day span?īut lists, especially Top 10 lists, are also a gift.
Indignation is the only rational response to being asked to weigh your personal subjective opinions against professional objective analysis in order to winnow 500 new programs into a hierarchical list of the 10 “best “shows. Plenty of critics bemoan their annual duty of ranking the year’s best TV shows - and rightfully so.
