Derry Girls (Channel 4) NEW ENTRY 25 Points, 5 nominations Looks like I found my next fun British show to watch now that Catastrophe and Fleabag have left our screens.

Stranger Things (Netflix) RE-ENTRY 33 Points, 7 nominations A consensus bounceback season. The kids might be super old now, but they've done a great job developing a replacement gang of kids and continue to excel with their one-season adult cameos. The less we say about the Hopper/Joyce dynamic the better.

The quality of this series throughout appears to have remained consistent and the has another solid placement on our list.

The Boys (Amazon) NEW ENTRY 45 Points, 8 nominations I was pleasantly surprised with this one and it appears you all agree with me. Whilst it might not have Netflix's volume and cultural footprint, Amazon continues to deliver some strong shows.

Regardless, TVIV seems very high on the show. Video game adaptation curse be damned!
