Somewhat from a UK perspective and with the top five still to come, this is where we are.
UK shows not yet mentioned include Happy Valley which has to be top 3 at least, and - perhaps randomly - Peaky Blinders which The Guardian has either totally over looked or totally overrated.
Also no mention of Preacher …
Five slots to fill.
Cannot believe The Missing 2 at position 28 - top five for me.
Any thoughts or guesses - they countdown one a day?
Pretty decent list, though some seem a bit too low (Halt and Catch Fire, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) and I don’t know half of the British shows. I’d think that one of the top 5 has to be Aziz Ansari’s “Master of None”. “The Americans” also hasn’t shown up on that list yet either. And I doubt it will be on The Guardian’s, but one of my favorite shows of 2016 is “BoJack Horseman”.
War and Peace pretty much sucked. I’ve read it, too. It was not a good adaptation for the most part. And some of the additions were horrible. Cheap and lazy writing to get ratings.
At best, it was a 6/10. Just adequate, but barely.
Fwiw, I couldn’t invest in that either. The people I know who did were all women - some absolutely loved it, so perhaps the demographics passed us by …
