Television is a medium because anything well done is rare.

The Expanse

The most promising Sci-Fi Epic in years. Finally, a Grand Space Opera with a decent story, realistic physics, and plenty of spaceship porn.

Game of Thrones

A historical retelling of the benevolent and righteous reign of King Joffrey Baratheon before his brutal downfall in 1483.

Death Note

Probably one of the best works of fiction ever, not just anime. Death Note accomplishes a ,kind of complexity that many other shows won't even attempt. Playing out like a game of chess, the two protagonists constantly try to outsmart each other. 10 years down the track this is still one of the most powerful and clever shows I've ever seen.

Family Guy

It seems today, that all we see is violence on movies, and sex on TV. Where are those good old-fashioned values on which we used to rely?
Luckily, there's Family Guy.

Now, this is the story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air

In West Philadelphia, born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool
And all shootin' some B-ball outside of the school

When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said, "You're movin' with your aunty and uncle in Bel Air"

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, nah forget it, yo home to Bel Air

I pulled up to the house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby, "Yo homes, smell you later"
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Air

This show was fantastic! It has a great cast, great story, great pacing. It works perfectly as a 10 episode mini-series.

Modern Family

This spiritual successor to Married with Children is well rounded and consistently funny. Modern Family manages to pull it off ever week, and has something for pretty much everybody.

I have mixed feelings about this show. The mood is spot on, with a decent soundtrack, special effects, and clear visuals to show when the protagonist is on NZT. However the writing often makes it feel like a cookie-cutter cop procedural where each week the solution a little white pill full of Deus Ex Machina.
The show isn't very smart either. There have been multiple episodes where it looks like the NZT isn't working properly, but it's just bad writing.
