It’s that time of year again, lets see out the dumpster fire of a year by celebrating the less of a dumpster fire year of TV. I'm back for my sophomore year at the helm. I learned a lot from last year so I'll be looking forward to less spreadsheet wrangling this time around. This year has the potential for some really interesting results with previous juggernaut shows not making an appearance in 2020. This has led to the rise of even more streaming services. It will be interesting to see how the results are affected by number of people that were sitting binging TV they otherwise wouldn't have got around to watching. Anyway, lets do it! Deadline is 10PM US EST Tuesday 19th of Jan Results will be revealed at 10PM US EST Thursday 21st of Jan UPDATE: Results have been revealed and begin here VOTING RULES 1. Every show you pick must have had a first time airing in its country of origin in full or in part during 2020. This could be a network show, a cable show, an online show, a TV movie (not movies from streaming services), it could even be a Youtube thing if you're down with what the kids are calling 'it'. 2. The joy of this thread is in getting to shout about your favourites and hear about the hidden gems that you missed and we can only do that if you talk about why you've chosen the shows you have. You can write a sentence, you can write an essay, whatever you like as long as you write something. Any lists posted without reasons for their picks will not be counted in the final vote. 3. If you want to list more than ten shows go for it but I'll only count your top ten. If you want to list less than ten shows then go for that too but I won't count it at all. If you don't want to rank your picks then that's fine as well but again, I won't count it. 4. Don't be a dick about other people's choices. This is a positive thread to celebrate the best of TV, not a place for people to get lost in an argument over which genre show in its third season poo poo the bed worst. If you want to be critical then take it elsewhere. 5. If you want to talk about spoilers in your post then by all means go for it but put a spoiler warning at the start of your list. 6. If you want to go back and edit your list after the fact then go for it, just shoot me a PM or post in the thread to let me know you have or I might not count it. Please ensure you edit your original post, don’t create a new list. I will periodically link user posts in the second comment of this thread. 7. Deadline for submissions is 11th January 00:01AM PST . I'll then do a live countdown of the final results some time after that at a time that suits the thread (that I'm able to do from the other side of the world.) There you have it, it's as simple as that!

Surprisingly, I watched less TV this year than I normally would. I do a lot of my viewing on my commute and that didn't really happen this year. I definitly didn't get to watch every thing I wanted to, but still watched enough to put together a decent list. Here is 44 to 25. 44. Killing Eve 43. Vice 42. Hard Knocks 41. Saturday Night Live 40. Formula 1: Drive To Survive 39. Run 38. High Score 37. Lego Masters: Australia 36. Impractical Jokers 35. Survivor 34. High Maintenance 33. Briarpatch 32. Last Week Tonight 31. AP Bio 30. The Queen's Gambit 29. We Are The Champions 28. The Outsider 27. Better Things 26. Miracle Workers 25 to 11 25. Shameless Last season was a real return to form despite no Emmy Rossum. The first two episodes of the new season have been absolute rippers. They've done an amazing job of weaving COVID, it's economic impacts, weed in Chicago, Evil Amazon and BLM into the storyline. 24. The Good Life The show is an all-timer but if you haven't watched it by this point, I'm not going to bother wasting real estate higher on my list. I gave it the love last year so it goes here this year. 23. I Am Not OK With This Sad to hear this didn't get a second season. Really good performances from the two leads and would have loved to see what happened in Season 2. 22. Sex Education Wow, the first season of this show was good. This second season was fantastic. What a fun show. Where is this magical place in England where it never rains? 21. Vikings It's not the show it was but I still enjoy it greatly. Looking forward to the last handful of episodes. And look forward to checking out Kingdom of Heaven once I'm done with it. 20. Hunters See below: This show was really fun. A great cast of misfits and a pretty cool premise. 19. Lovecraft Country Certainly had it's floors but the highs of this show were pretty drat high. Some really powerful episodes, some clever riffs on horror tropes and for the most part, a really fun ride. 18. The Boys The introduction of Stormfront was great. Homelander might be the best villain on TV. 17. Rick & Morty God forbid I engage with this show on the internet, but in a vacuum, this show is still pretty magical. 16. Ozark The first season of this show was mediocre prestige-drama at best but I swear the show is getting better each and every season. It's always fun when a new season of this drops. 15. How To With John Wilson This show is pretty brilliant. Has Nathan Fielders magic touch all over it. I would love to read/watch some stuff to figure out how the hell he managed to get all this footage. If you like Nathan For You or Joe Pera Talks With You then check this out. 14. After Life I know Ricky Gervais is hated on these forums, but I'm sorry, he keeps making amazing poo poo and this is no exception. Really sweet, really heartfelt, really funny and executed on the sophomore season really well 13. The Eric Andre Show The first season that I got to watch live. Eric Andre is fascinating individual and the show is amazing to view from an intellectual perspective. It's also hilarious. 12. The Flight Attendant A pleasant surpise. Took the mantle as "awesome fun and funny female led thriller show" from the now awful Killing Eve. Kaley Cuoco kills it. 11. The Crown The first season I got to watch in real time (I caught up this year). If I told my 16 year old self this show was awesome my younger self would hang so much poo poo on me, but now that I'm old and the production is so amazing, I'd scoff at my younger self and keep on watching And now my Top 10 10. Bluey You need to watch this show if you're a parent. I laugh on multiple occasions every episode (and cry on some too). Quite the feat considering episodes are only 7 minutes long. 9. Yellowstone Apparantly this rates gang busters on a network no one knows exist. I'm glad it does because it's awesome. 8. Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet This show could have gone wrong in so many ways considering the premise (a workplace comedy set at a video game studio) but I loved every minute of it. Charlotte Nicdao is a revelation. Easily the best COVID/Zoom episode of any show to air this year. 7. Fargo As with Avenue 5, I delayed watching this a couple of weeks due to the online discourse but I had a ton of fun with it. If you like Hawley, and you like Fargo, you'll like this. I enjoyed it a lot more than last season. 6. Black Monday This show somehow keeps getting better. Cheadle is a pleasure to watch in everything he does and one of the few shows that made me laugh out loud this year (that doesn't mean other shows aren't funny, I just tend to no laugh out loud much) 5. Avenue 5 I was a few weeks late to watching this show due to the lukewarm reception on this forum. But my god, I loved this. So funny, so dark. 4. ZeroZeroZero This show is gorgeous, the action scenes are tense as hell and the story is completely my poo poo (drugs, cartels, mafioso). Done by the people behind Gomorrah ie. "Italian Sopranos" 3. The Last Dance Can't believe this footage went unaired for so long. Fascinating watch and does a great job of explaining the psyche of pro athletes. 2. The Good Lord Bird This was a joy to watch, which was a pleasant surprise considering the subject matter. The performances of Hawke and Caleb Johnson were amazing. 1. Better Call Saul I don't know how this show keeps getting better but it does. The whole cast deserves all the awards. By far the best show on TV, especially in a year with a dearth of prestige TV.

Gather round goons and goonettes. It's finally time to reveal the results of the 9th Annual TVIV awards! I, Looten Plunder will be your host today. It's my second time doing this so I'm hoping things will be a bit smoother, but please forgive me, both, for the the delay in this countdown and any bumps along the way. So....2020 huh?! It's probably an understatement, but that was a lovely year. There was a silver lining though. With everyone stuck at home, there was a lot more eyeballs on the small screen this year. People were starved for content, it's just a shame that not a lot of networks weren't able to make the shows to serve those eyeballs. With that said, there was a lot of good TV this year, and it will be interesting to see how much of a shake up there is as a result of this new climate. Let's all come together to As always, there are some big questions that need to be answered. Including, but not limited to:
