My Top 25 Shows of 2018
1. Brooklyn Nine-Nine- This comedy has remained great in its fifth season, allowing the characters to grow and have romance. It's my favorite comedy on television.
2. One Day At A Time- This show had a very strong second season. It took on a lot of real issues like always but allowed the characters to have fun, be happy and know what they mean to each other.
3. The Good Place- This show is also still funny as the seasons progress and manages to take more narrative leaps.
4. Sense 8- The finale managed to wrap up the storylines and allowed everyone to live happily and sexily ever after.
5. GLOW- This show had a strong second season, embracing it's premise in new ways. It allowed the characters to work out their issues while still being funny. Listen to “Don't Kidnap” if you haven't already.
6. The Magicians- This show had a lot of fun with its writing and storytelling this season. It made the most of its cast.
7. Legends of Tomorrow- This show is funny, romantic and about team building. It does the craziest things it can think of and has fun doing it.
8. Wynonna Earp- This season said goodbye to some characters while strengthening the bond with the remaining. It was heartbreaking and hilarious.
9. Killing Eve- Though based on a book, this was a breath of fresh air for television. It allowed for a cat and mouse game with two women at the center.
10. Sorry For Your Loss- This was an impressive series that just took a look at a family as it processed grief. It had an impressive cast.
11. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend- This show is allowing its characters to grow while maintaining musical hilarity.
12. Pose- This was a family drama centered on the found family in a trans community. It was dramatic, funny and groundbreaking.
13. The Last Man On Earth- This funny series ended letting its characters reach some milestones and finding a lot more survivors. It was fun while it lasted.
14. The Flash- The show is better than it has been in awhile. It has some new plotlines, some humor and Barry and Iris at its center.
15. Corporate- This was a comedy about the boredom and soullessness of corporate life. Very funny.
16. American Vandal- This show was very brilliant. It was a parody of true crime that had empathy for the young people it was built around. There was a lot more it could do. It will be missed.
17. A.P. Bio- This was a good comedy. It was a show about someone in a job they hated and that job happened to be shaping the minds of impressionable young people. It went into a couple of not so great places but for the most part remained funny.
18. Ash vs. Evil Dead- This season gave Ash a kid and took us to post apocalyptic times. It was funny and it a loss.
19. Doctor Who- I enjoy our new Doctor and our new companions. I don't know if the stories are as consistent or strong but it's good.
20. Elementary- This season finally got Sherlock and Watson to Bakers Street. Partners forever. It anticipated its characters growing up.
21. Single Parents- I like this new comedy about parents working together to help each other. The kids cast was also strong.
22. Vida- I like this new show about a family working with their trauma, their community and their own hang ups.
23. Mom- This was a strong year for the show. It expanded the cast and moved the characters into new phases of their lives with new setbacks.
24. The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina- This was an interesting new take on old premise that separated itself from the original.
25. The Neighborhood- This was a solid new comedy about a culture clash.
