Welcome to my tenth annual, completely biased, end-of-year list. As always, I watched some critically acclaimed series, some “lowbrow” series, an unhealthy amount of true crime, and a little bit of everything in between. And after consuming 60+ series across 20+ channels and streaming services, here’s my top picks for shows, moments, and more of …
For whatever reason, I did not watch The WB’s Birds of Prey when it initially aired in the fall of 2002.
