    Unfortunately, I had some technical issues that stopped me from watching a lot of stuff from September to just about now so I'm very behind. But of what I've seen:

    10. Reacher
    9. Hacks
    8. Tokyo Vice
    7. Stranger Things
    6. Minx
    5. Severance
    4. Slow Horses
    3. The Rehearsal
    2. The Bear
    1. We Own This City

    Honorable mentions: The Afterparty, Black Bird, The Terminal List, Winning Time, Cobra Kai, the first episode of Somebody Somewhere, House of the Dragon, Attack on Titan, and probably a few others that i've forgotten

    The literal best show i watched this year was Station Eleven but that was technically released in mid-December 2021.

    Yeah it finished up in December of ‘21. I think it led directly into euphoria which kicked off the first week of ‘22 I believe

    Huge BB fan, watched all BB seasons multiple times. I watched first 2 seasons of Better Call Saul some years back and for some reason never continued.

    Started back at season 1, ep1 tonight. First couple episodes are great.

    Sounds like I'll have to give Minx and White Lotus a try. Neither really piqued my interest at first glance.

    Andor was probably my favorite show of the year. I really enjoyed Wednesday a lot as well.

    Wish it didn’t take them 2 fucking years to put new seasons of Better Call Saul on Netflix.

    1. Severance -- Easy #1 for me. I found this show incredible.

    Others I liked:
    HotD -- after reading how much everyone hated it, I had low expectations and really enjoyed it.
    Welcome to Wrexham -- Fantastic show, can't wait for season 2
    Acapulco -- guilty pleasure show for me, watch at your own peril
    The Bear
    Stranger Things
    -- Great season
    Ozark -- Really liked the final season
    Cobra Kai
    The Dropout


    Watched but meh
    The Old Man
    Girl from Plainview


    Started, might enjoy and plan on finishing, but haven't watched enough to fully recommend:
    Rings of Power -- Literally, just started 2 days ago, but plan to finish
    Shantaram -- Fav book, big actors, but wasn't renewed
    The Rehearsal
    Under the Banner of Heaven


    After looking up some of these recco's, I realize that I now need to watch:
    Winning Time
    We Own the City
    Better Call Saul
    Andor
    Reservation Dogs
    Hacks
    Minx

    Fleishman is in Trouble -- I read this book, so I should watch the show
    Abbott Elementary
    The Staircase -- I've seen so many true crime docs on this that I should watch
    Tell Me Lies

    HOTD has the opposite problem of GOT. If they go too long with HOTD they’ll ruin it. There wasn’t enough time left in the world to flesh out GOT

    I thought the first season of HotD was great. It clearly has better show runners that GoT.
