Top 15 Shows and Episodes of 2018
December 27, 2018 by Marisa Roffman
In case you haven’t heard, there’s a lot of TV. A lot. Close to 500 scripted shows, in fact. That’s made these “end of year” lists absolutely brutal.
So here are a few caveats:
1) This is a hybrid list of the best episodes and shows I watched this year. My rules were I could only have one overlap with show and episode (which also happens to be my personal pick for best show/episode of the year) and I couldn’t pick a show if I hadn’t finished every episode that aired in 2018. (That also means shows I really have been enjoying like KIDDING and ESCAPE FROM DANNEMORA aren’t on the list. There just are not enough hours in the day.)
2) Given the sheer amount of TV, it’s quite possible/probable your favorite isn’t represented here. I’m sorry! But feel free to let me know what particularly excited you this year in the comments.
That being said, here is the list (in alphabetical order)…
THE GOOD PLACE
It feels increasingly improbable that this show is good, let alone often flat-out great. The talent behind it is incredible, but this is a show that regular reinvents itself…and it’s a 30-minute comedy. Want to blow up the established timeline and bring four dead people back to life on Earth? Sure! Have an episode where one actress has to portray nearly all of the established characters (thanks to The Void) and she has to act opposite multiple versions of herself? Why not? At this point, THE GOOD PLACE has built up an incredible amount of goodwill and wiggle room to do practically anything. (Photo credit: Colleen Hayes/NBC)
