Love this list. I’d add Industry, which I wouldn’t go so far as to say is young Succession, but it is soapy and fun.

ty for the reminder i still need to watch x men 97! i did do a full x men movies rewatch this year, and wow the movies can be so terrible, but i'm still so much more attached to the characters than marvel bc of the constant ambient gayness

I’m so glad I discovered your Substack! Finally a place where I can read about housewives! I’m going to go back and read all of your recaps.

And also Mary Cosby is bringing it! I didn’t really like her gruff bluntness in previous seasons but wow this season she has finally shown us her heart and has won us all over. Her and Angie’s friendship is so great to watch. And her support for her son is an inspiring way to be! Love!

Evil was in my top 10 of the year - I love that show so much and am sad I don’t get to hang out with those 3 forever. What I love is that it is a monster of the week procedural in many ways, but it’s so damn funny! RIP.

Also love slow horses and bad sisters. The last one is so deliciously soapy.

The only other overlap for me was HOTD, which was on my best of list lol. I think they really leveled up in s2.

I haven’t watched s2 of Interview with A Vampire yet but it sounds amazing.

Methinks you haven’t seen Ripley yet Ira - is that possible or do you just not know the best show or the year when you see it? 😂

And do you watch What We Do in the Shadows? What a gift that show was, absolutely perfect.

I wasn’t a fan of Ripley :/ I loved the film of WWDITS but haven’t made it past season one yet

There’s not much better in this world than taking an edible and watching WWDITS. A perfect escape.
