TV News: PCR’s Top 5 Favorite Television Shows of 2018!

PopCultureReview’s Top 5 Favorite TV Shows of 2018
Best of 2018 Lists
December 18, 2018

It’s the time of the year when people start thinking about the year that (almost) was and what their favorite things were (and not so favorite if you’re so inclined). PopCultureReview is not immune from these musings.

We’re rolling out our “Best Of 2018” Lists; click here to see our Five Favorite Movies of the Year! Today, we turn our eye towards our favorite medium, television! Why five? Simple. Three seems too little and ten, too many. 

I watch a lot of TV; I could generate a Top 25 list of my favorite shows and still keep things off that I really like. So, I get it – your favorite show isn’t here; chances are I really like said show and agree with you that it’s awesome but, the way numbers work, there can only be five in a Top Five List. 

Now, remember, these are not necessarily the five BEST television shows of 2018 (though, I’d argue, in most cases they are and certainly in the case of my number 1 pick), but rather, our Top Five Favorite.

So, here is the list of PopCultureReview’s Top Five Favorite Television Shows of 2018 … after the jump!

It’s the time of the year when people start thinking about the year that (almost) was and what their favorite things were (and not so favorite if you’re so inclined). PopCultureReview is not immune from these musings.

Over the next few days, we’ll be rolling out our “Best Of 2018” Lists and we are starting with our five favorite movies of 2018. Why five? Well, it really stems from the TV list which I need to physically restrain myself from adding all the ones I love. Three seems too little and ten, too many.  

Now, remember, these are not necessarily the five BEST movies of 2018, but rather, our Top Five Favorite.

So, here is the list of PopCultureReview’s top five favorite movies … after the jump!

Best New Shows of the 2017-18 Season

The end of the year is a great time to take stock of where we are.  Today, I’m letting you know my top new shows of the Fall television season. These shows are weekly installment shows (distinguished from “binge” shows where an entire season is made available at once a la Netflix or Hulu). Why differentiate?  Because, at least for me anyway, I watch “binge” shows very differently from weeklies and the characteristics and criteria for what makes them great isn’t necessarily the same in the two categories.

Anyhoo, read on and let me know what you think.  There are a couple of “obvious” choices here that you’ll see on other critics lists.  There are several that I am sure you will not.  But, hey, I’m me and this is my world so step inside my thinking a bit.  Leave your thoughts and choices in the comments.  I love discussing TV and why you think something is great … or not.

Without further ado, the Best New Show of the Fall Season is …

“Best Of” List – Best New Fall Show on NBC

As the Holidays draw near and new episodes of TV shows become scarce, I’d like to take a moment to step back and see where we stand so far in this 2017-18 television season.

Last week, I took to Twitter to conduct a series of super scientific tests, to gauge the opinions of the masses on what they are enjoying most so far this season.

The question posed for this post: What is the Best New Show on NBC this season? Read on for the not at all surprising results …
