Following the thread on !movies@lemm.ee, here is another one to discuss your favourite TV shows of 2024
Animation shows should probably be discussed on !animation@lemm.ee
Feel free to comment with the shows you liked the most, ideally one comment per show so that other people can chime in and discuss.
Krauerking ( @Krauerking@lemy.lol ) English5•2 months agoMan what a year for shows I actually think. We got the obvious big hits like Fallout and Shogun, but there were some smaller ones that I think were far better than people recognize.
Extraordinary:
Really what a fun show that does a great play on the superpower tropes and does such a fun dance of the cast being terrible people that you want to root for.Scavengers Reign:
Woah what a powerhouse of an emotional animation roller coaster. So fantastic, so alien. Fully took advantage of what the medium could do that no other could and proved why animation is still the truest art can get.Snowpiercer:
Maybe a bit of a controversial pick and especially since it was the last season but it was fun.
I really enjoyed that they took the comic and held themselves true to the sweeping arcs and messages and even each season matched each book as if viewed through a foggy lens to keep it original while recognizable.
Cinematography definitely took a hit first few episodes of the last season but then it balances back out and you can feel a desperate need for a happy ending in a sad story. Still lots of fun and very Snowpiercer the whole time. Gamma ( @GammaGames@beehaw.org ) English4•2 months agoI’m going to have to do some thinking, but currently my favorite is What We Do In the Shadows. It feels like old seasons and constantly makes me laugh, going to miss it (series finale next week!)
Blaze (he/him) ( @Blaze@sopuli.xyz ) English4•2 months agoI just realized I haven’t watched that many shows this year. Probably a down side of rewatching The Office every few months
1984 ( @1984@lemmy.today ) English3•2 months agoI think this year has been awful… Last good show for me was Severance.
edric ( @scytale@lemm.ee ) English3•2 months agoShogun and The Penguin were the standouts for me. I’m in the middle of watching a Korean drama called “The Trunk”, and if it doesn’t shit the bed in the latter half of the series, I would put it as an honorable mention.
yessikg ( @yessikg@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English2•2 months agoSeason 2 of The Devil’s Hour was chef kiss so that would probably be my pick
I have barely watched any new shows but Hazbin Hotel - I can’t believe I never watched the original Youtube version, anyways I’m obsessed (yes, I know it’s animated but I don’t watch that many animated shows, so I’m not joining the animation community)
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@fedia.io ) 2•2 months agoI don’t think I’ve seen anything new this year, felt like a shallow one. Last year I’d say Silo, and Scavenger’s Reign are both worth mentioning and highly underrated.
Blaze (he/him) ( @Blaze@sopuli.xyz ) English1•2 months agoShogun is probably the one new show that was noticed in 2024
DarkThoughts ( @DarkThoughts@fedia.io ) 3•2 months agoShogun was okay, but the last couple episodes kinda ruined it for me. Overall I think its a bit overhyped.
Microw ( @Microw@lemm.ee ) English2•2 months agoI did not watch a lot of shows this year, but I think the one I liked the most was Agatha All Along
