TV Shows watchlist
All the movies, shows, episodes, specials, and events I've watched.
TV shows are listed when shows are over/cancelled.
Weird year to qualify in the history of television. Really, I think that's because the medium was arriving at this irreversible inflection point where it was a proven pattern that people loved reality television and there was no stuffing the genie back into the disposable bottle. The landscape really reflects that because we're not quite in the Peak TV era yet, but there's a clear reshuffling of the deck where's the ace tier series and everything else competing for the heaps below. MTV is emblematic of this probably!
Honny Menches: Fairly OddParents, Today
2004 marked the end of Friends and Frasier, which was seismic for NBC obviously but also for television. Comedies have rarely been monoliths ever since. This was kind of the death of "Must See TV." But it was also the heyday for me growing up with television. And I don't really recognize the massive Friends phenomenon model anymore anyway.
The Worthies: Jimmy/Timmy Power Hour, Friends finale, Lost pilot, SpongeBob, Deadwood
Obviously, you can probably tell that I'll always regard 2005 as the year when The Office bowed. I'll always be open to remakes because one of my favorite things in the entire world is a remake. The rest of the year is dwarfed by this! Television was splintering like never before when this became the hit instead of Joey.
H! M!: Unwrapped, Peep Show, Drake & Josh
2008 is a year that's obviously marred by the writers' strike. Many shows were clipped at the heels and cut short. Episode counts in binge watches are askew forever! Major crossroads for television here. Practically a miracle anything worthwhile crept through at all.
H.M.: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, The Soup, SportsCenter
This is one of the outlets we've seen kind of fall off in recent years. There's an unimpeachable heyday here with a massive farm of genius comedic talent, rather than just comedic talent. And for that, Comedy Central will always be special. I'll be rooting for them to return to those days. Maybe greenlighting the BriTANick pilot would have helped.
Series que j'aime bien ou que je veux regarder dans l'immédiat
These are shows that I watch occasional episodes but not every one (usually an interview or talk show)
