I think the only one of my list that's already gone is The Americans. And if I'm honest, as much as I love the show it was not a lock for my list this year. Too much strong competition. Kind of crazy to see Veep fall so far. I fell off it myself this year, guess I wasn't the only one.

Is there like a “reveal on Discord” thing happening or is it just all in this thread? I don’t actually know if that’s happened for a few years now but I always liked it

I'll be experimenting with the pacing a little bit though, I'm hoping it'll be exciting for you all  5.5 hours to go...

BROOKLYN NINE NINE (FOX) DOWN 5 14 points, listed 4 times Yes Brooklyn Nine Nine returns to our chart once more. The wacky hijinks never fail to entertain.

Rarity, thank you for going to all this trouble. I looked forward to this poll the last few years, enjoy contributing, and really appreciate everything you put into it. I hate awards shows, but this is a real kick, and I realize it's no small undertaking.

I don't watch the show, but I'm amazed nobody brought up Errol Morris's praise for the finale. That's like...John Ford calling Blazing Saddles one of the best westerns he's ever seen.

Yep, Cartoon Network are really loving up their major shows right now. It’s especially annoying for SU because each mini-arc follows on so closely from the last.

THE HANDMAID'S TALE (HULU) NEW ENTRY 21 points, listed 4 times, #1 spot 1 time I gave The Handmaid's Tale a shot and I got through the first three episodes but I couldn't watch any more. It is without a doubt a really important show and the construction of it all is done so well. The relentless misery just didn't hook me in and I don't know why. Did anyone else have this experience?

Tiggum posted:It's got this faux-grim tone that really appeals to me.  32. LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS (NETFLIX) NEW ENTRY 22 points, listed 4 times Yes, do not spend your time on this. Netflix have ill-advisedly commissioned a second season but it is not worth your time. Spend it on happier pursuits such as holding hands with a loved one under the blossoming trees of spring. Or alternatively, ice cream.
