What a great year for television! From epic dramas to comedies to competitions, there was a lot to love this year. I’m not even sure I can truly narrow it down to 10, but I’ll try my best.
One thing that might help will be to separately showcase shows that were on seasons beyond the first this year. It’s amazing that these shows keep getting better–that isn’t easy. Here’s a few of them that I loved:
- For All Mankind (season 4)
- The Great (3 seasons)
- Animal Control (season 2)
- Top Chef (season 21)
- Hacks (3 seasons)
- Girls5Eva (season 3)
- Only Murders in the Building (season 4)
- Survivor (seasons 46 and 47)
- Arcane (season 2)
- Fisk (3 seasons)
- Kevin Can F Himself (2 seasons)
- Shrinking (season 2)
Here are some single-season older shows that I watched for the first time in 2024:
- Anxious People
- Ghosted
- The Devil’s Plan
- Living with Yourself
Here are the shows I loved that debuted this year:
- X-Men ’97
- Fallout
- A Man on the Inside
- Mr. & Mrs. Smith
- Death and Other Details
- Shogun
- Dark Matter
- The Perfect Couple
- Nobody Wants This
- The English Teacher
What were some of your favorite, most memorable, and most bingeworthy shows of 2024?
My TV time is limited to when the kids go to bed and my lunch break, but I got a few good ones in. We watched Survivor and Once Upon a Time, I watched Cowboy Bebop for the first time (and absolutely fell in love with the board game), rewatched MASH, House, and a second watching of Cowboy Bebop, and have begun a rewatch of Fringe!
Nice! I love when shows lead to games (and vice versa). I absolutely love Fringe.
Because of your recommendation we watched A Man on the Inside last week. Really enjoyed that show!
I’m so glad you tried (and enjoyed) it!
