Best of 2018 in Television
It has been some years since I have done my annual "Best of..." the past year in Entertainment. These are my recommendations and for Television, I have listed 31 programs (instead of the usual 25). My original "short list" was 54. LOL. With so many choices: not just TV, but cable, premium, streaming services - it is really hard to narrow it down - and this is just based on what I actually saw.
There have been so many programs that caught my eye; that were either critically acclaimed and/or awarded (and a few of my 'guilty pleasure' shows). So, yes, MTVs Ridiculousness finally made the list - it is in it's 11th, 12th and 13th season this year, I have seen every episode of this series at least twice. It may not be an Emmy winner like The Assassination of Gianni Versace or the drama feast of This Is Us, but in my eyes shows like it can stand alongside these critical faves. It is, after all, entertainment. If I could give an Emmy to all of these shows I would. They are my best of the best recommendations from 2018. Listed in alphabetical order. Enjoy and be entertained.
Next Sunday will be my list for the Best in Music and Recordings of 2018.
