Or, the last time I wrote about shows that I watched.
American Crime Story (Season 2): The Assassination of Gianni Versace. Tom Ripley true crime, loved it.
Atlanta (Seasons 3-4): I could use one more season of this show. Felt incomplete. Brilliant. Daring. Funny. But incomplete.
Beavis and Butt-Head (Season 9): I didn’t know how much I needed this.
Better Things (Season 5): Easily my favorite show on television at the moment. Absolutely gutted that it is over, even though it left on a high note. I could check in on this family from time to time forever. Always look on the bright side of life, indeed.
Bob’s Burgers (Seasons 10-12): Consistently funny. No pun intended, but comfort food.
Boy Meets World (Seasons 1-7): Still and forever unabashedly love this show.
Bunheads (Season 1): Easy to see why it was cancelled, but I found it enjoyable. Once it gets past its absurd initial premise, it seemed like it was gradually just turning into a Stars Hallow spin-off: Emily is more or less running Miss Patty’s; Sean Gunn’s character becomes more Kirk-like; we also see, among others, Gypsy, Digger, Paris, and Zack in an eyepatch.
Curb Your Enthusiasm (Seasons 10-11): Amusing, but could have ended after season seven.
I Think You Should Leave (Season 2): If you like this sketch, watch this show.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (Season 15): Some funny moments, but its worst season, right?
Hacks (Season 1): Fuck yeah, Jean Smart!
Jeopardy: Love to watch this before bed. There have been some incredible stand-out players as of late. I’ve also watched some random old episodes on Pluto.TV. ’80s Jeopardy is amazing.
Kim’s Convenience (Season 5): It’s a shame this show didn’t get to properly end. I still recommend the show as a whole. It’s funny, lighthearted and charming, and sometimes that is all a show needs to be.
The Mandalorian / The Book of Boba Fett (Seasons 1-2; Season 1): As a whole, my favorite Star Wars thing since the original Star Wars things. Boba Fett dragged, though. Almost think this should have been re-edited as one show.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Season 4): As funny as ever, still love the Lenny Bruce bits, and I am liking the B/C plots more (spin-off about Village Voice in the ’60s starring Chris, please), but it’s still the Midge and Susie show, as it should be.
Only Murders in the Building (Seasons 1-2): I love Martin Short and Steve Martin (and Selena Gomez!), but didn’t hold my interest. There could have been a 90-minute version of this that I likely would have thoroughly enjoyed.
Pen15 (Season 2): Maya and Anna are so committed to this. I really loved how the second half of season two branched out with Maya’s (real life) mother. They did something really special here. And for those that don’t know, Taylor Nichols, who Anna’s father, was in The Dinner Parting.
Rick and Morty (Seasons 1-5): Like most nerdy things, the fan base kinda ruins it, but this show is too funny and too in my wheelhouse not to love. And quite often, it is just as deep as they say it is.
The Righteous Gemstones (Seasons 1-2): Blasphemous dark comedy. I appreciate that they mock religious hypocrisy over religion, period.
Riverdale (Seasons 5-6): Not ashamed to say that I am an Archie Comics fan, but this show should have lost me long ago. Twin Peaks it ain’t.
Saturday Night Live (Seasons 46-47): The show is really embracing the weird. This is the most I’ve liked Sunday Afternoon Not Live in a long time (first few episodes of the new season have been clunkers but I am still holding out hope. The Jack Harlow episode had some great moments).
Single Drunk Female (Season 1): Felt very much like I was watching an ABC Family show about alcoholism. Loved the lead, though, and that they have a trans character that’s actually playing a role, and not just an identity, if that makes sense.
Stranger Things (Season 4): Had its moments, of course, but I am ready to be over this.
Squid Game (Season 1): Didn’t dislike it, but how Netflix manage these phenomenons out of thin air, I don’t think I will ever be able to comprehend.
Ted Lasso (Seasons 1-2): Ted and Roy Kent represent the yin and yang of who I want to be as a person.
Welcome to Wrexham (Season 1): So I like heartwarming shows about soccer, sue me.
Winning Time (Season 1): For how much this show had going for it (the actors, the premise), it too felt very incomplete to me.
