JeetJeet: Favorite TV Shows of 2016

JeetJeet 12.21.16	Give me more shows to watch.
AngryJohnny 12.22.16	props for 2 and 10
JeetJeet 12.22.16	Ya those were really good. What's your favorite show of this year? I wanna know what the sputnikkas watch.
elliootsmeuth 12.22.16	Nice albums for 4 and 5
Satellite 12.22.16	good list. mine would be... westworld s1 rick and morty s2 mr. robot s2 better call saul s2 master of none s1 broad city s3 stranger things s1 horace and pete s1 unbreakable kimmy schmidt s2
Satellite 12.22.16	wait r&m and master of none were '15 nvm
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@ellioit yep I've been listening to both those a lot lately. Got any TV recs?
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@Satellite fuck I forgot Broad City. This was a good year for comedy shows. I've JUST started watching Rick & Morty and its pretty goddamn fun. I have yet to watch Bojack tho.
Satellite 12.22.16	bojack doesn't do it for me. very few animated comedies do tbh. check out f is for family if you haven't already.
Ryus 12.22.16	have you made it past the first couple episodes? it gets quite good
JeetJeet 12.22.16	Yeah the only animated comedies that work for me nowadays are Archer and South Park. Will check out F is For Family tho. Edit: Oh shit its got Bill Burr in it. Definitely watching that.
Rowan5215 12.22.16	needs some bojack s3 but great list, will rep atlanta till I die tbh been rewatching 30 Rock recently, so good
JeetJeet 12.22.16	I've heard lots of praise for Bojack but I'm reluctant when it comes to animated comedies. I'm interested in it tho cause it sounds kinda dark.
Satellite 12.22.16	yeah if you like bill burr you'll love f is for family. he's the creative force behind it. @ryus idk i've seen my brother watching a few episodes here and there. didn't really jibe with me. is there a specific great episode i should check out to change my mind?
Satellite 12.22.16	@rowan do you watch unbreakable kimmy schmidt? probably my favorite thing about it is that it reminds me of 30 rock.
owen 12.22.16	ash vs evil dead s2 before the finale ruined everything
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@Owen I'm putting that on my watchlist. I love horror and comedy so this looks right up my alley.
Rowan5215 12.22.16	@satty check out Let's Find Out from Bojack s2, one of the best episodes of any show I can remember recently. also I haven't seen Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt but I'm pretty sure the lead actress came from Derrick Comedy so I'll have to watch it eventually!
Satellite 12.22.16	yeah, ellie kemper. she was the receptionist on the office in its later years as well. the premise of the show is dark af but it's handled in the most lighthearted way possible. i'll get right on that. need shit to watch for my flight home anyway. edit: **PLEASE EVERYONE WHO HASN'T WATCHED WESTWORLD IGNORE THE REST OF MY COMMENTS ITT, EVEN MORE SO THAN NORMAL. ALSO WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, GO WATCH WESTWORLD.**
Rowan5215 12.22.16	It's one of my favourite underdog stories ever how a weird, cult comedy like 30 Rock managed to snag Alec fuckin' Baldwin for a main character. that's story to tell your grandkids level stuff
JeetJeet 12.22.16	Hmmm...this Horace & Pete show sounds interesting. Has a nice cast too. Putting this on my watchlist. Need a few more show recs guys. If you're reading this give me your top 5 of the year.
ScuroFantasma 12.22.16	I despise Broad City
jtswope 12.22.16	"@satty check out Let's Find Out from Bojack s2, one of the best episodes of any show I can remember recently." Agreed Row
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@Scuro I can understand not liking it. The 2 girls are obnoxious as hell, but I find em funny. You see anything on the list you dig?
tacos n stuff 12.22.16	SPOILERS westword was insanely good apart from meave's plot line. If felix was a host it would have made 7357370x more sense but it turns out felix and the other dude were just straight up dunder heads SPOILERS
Satellite 12.22.16	no it's confirmed that maeve believes felix to be a human. doesn't mean it's true considering her entire escape was itself a narrative and never truly of her own volition. or did you miss that part?
Satellite 12.22.16	oh and spoiler warning
tacos n stuff 12.22.16	good call on spoiler warning SPOILERS nahhh i got that it was part of the narrative and that was cool, its just that the butchers could have stopped meave so many times but didnt. Meaves narrative/scheme in other words went wayyy too smoothly for her. Like, realistically she shouldnt have gotten as far as she did if the two guys actually took action. Not trying to argue here, the show was easily my fav of the year, and possibly my favorite first season of television. Its just that that specific plotline kinda was a bit far fetched. SPOILERS
ScuroFantasma 12.22.16	@Jeet majority of them sound very appealing, I've bookmarked the list to go through the shows later. Only seen the first ep of Atlanta from these, and of course Broad City.
tacos n stuff 12.22.16	Definitely check westworld, black mirror, and planet earth II Scuro!
Satellite 12.22.16	SPOILERS they didn't stop her because they were programmed not to. the entire point of her escape was to smuggle data out of the park (although we don't know what exactly or who for: charlotte? ford? elsie? bernard?). that's why she was carrying a bag when she got on the train and wasn't when she got off. SPOILERS
tacos n stuff 12.22.16	SPOILERS woahhhh so felix and sylvester are confirmed hosts? Cause that changes like everything lol SPOILERS
ScuroFantasma 12.22.16	Will do Tacos, Westworld's concept sounds awesome
Satellite 12.22.16	SPOILERS i mean to be fair it's not fully confirmed and i'm basically submitting my opinions as fact here. i just definitely think there's more happening than has been revealed. but your opinion is as valid as mine. SPOILERS
Satellite 12.22.16	SPOILERS this is kind of out there a bit, but i think it's possible that every single character we've met (and maybe even the entire world's population) is a host. SPOILERS
tacos n stuff 12.22.16	i get you satellite anyway, yeah people watch westworld. Hopkins and ed harris are at the top of their games and its insanely rewatchable bc of the things revealed at the end of the show.
Satellite 12.22.16	PLEASE EVERYONE WHO HASN'T WATCHED WESTWORLD IGNORE MY COMMENTS ITT, EVEN MORE SO THAN NORMAL. ALSO WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, GO WATCH WESTWORLD.
JeetJeet 12.22.16	Yea go watch Westworld if you haven't. If I had to recommend 3 shows on this list, Westworld is #1, with Quarry and Atlanta close behind.
klap 12.22.16	If you're not watching the Americans at this point u r a pleb
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@klap I watched the first season of that a long time ago and thought it was really good. Never seen the other seasons tho. I really gotta get back into it.
klap 12.22.16	u gotta do it. second season is aces and it only gets better from there
Dewinged 12.22.16	Stranger Things S1 is awesome. Was Fargo S1 this year? Enjoyed that too. Having watched Westworld yet.
theacademy 12.22.16	1. 12 monkeys 2. all other shows
theacademy 12.22.16	1.5 bojack horseman
Satellite 12.22.16	fargo s2 was 2015, the first the year before. new season next year. will rule.
theacademy 12.22.16	fuck i forgot stranger things 0.5 stranger things
theacademy 12.22.16	really dug myself into a hole here
Sinternet 12.22.16	I think the only shows I watched this year were Atlanta and Yuri on Ice but both fucking rule
Satellite 12.22.16	watch westworld and mr. robot you fucking idiot
Rowan5215 12.22.16	stranger things was spectacular. also was the second season of fargo good? I didn't watch it cos different cast
Satellite 12.22.16	i prefer it over s1 (just barely) tbh. it's spectacular.
Emim 12.22.16	Seinfeld
Rowan5215 12.22.16	ah goddamn gotta watch it then. s1 was so fucking good
Chortles 12.22.16	americans is the best show on rn tbh
klap 12.22.16	fargo s2 is GOAT westworld was overrated af imo but very entertaining
JeetJeet 12.22.16	Second season of Fargo is godly. The cast for season 3 looks incredible.
Chortles 12.22.16	s1 fargo was dooope but i haven't seen s2 either
grindcorecore 12.22.16	is black mirror that show with 80s lesbians in it? i've never seen it, idk what the show is even about
jagride 12.22.16	sci-fi anthology with lots of bitter heavy handed satirical hot takes on our relationship with tech. pretty shit agree w/ op on quarry though, that was good
Egarran 12.22.16	What show filled you guys with joy and optimism for the future?
Evreaia 12.22.16	Anyone seen The OA? Was pretty good too.
JeetJeet 12.22.16	@Egarran Planet Earth 2 filled me with joy and optimism. @jagride Quarry was soooo good. Ep 4 was my favorite one. @Ev someone spoiled the ending of that show for me before I could even watch the pilot. I was pissed not only cause the ending sounds terrible, but because the show actually looks dope as hell.
jagride 12.23.16	yea i'm a sucker for that grimy 70s vibe and it achieved it without beating you over the head with cliches. looks like they did their homework on the better crime movies from that era
EyesWideShut 12.23.16	yall stay sleeping on Rectify
JeetJeet 12.23.16	From what I've seen from Rectify its pretty good. I need to finish that show though. I have a bad habit of starting shows and not finishing them.
Faraudo 12.23.16	I loved Mr. Robot, but the fucking plot ran in circles for the whole season. The first 2 episodes are fucking terrible, and nothing really happened. I feel like it definitely jumped the shark.
Insurrection 12.23.16	quarry was really surprising. especially since it's on cinemax and it feels like an HBO show
JeetJeet 12.23.16	@Insurrection yea I wish it actually was on HBO. That way more people would watch it. That show seriously hits hard. Idk if it'll get a season 2 but if it does I'll be shocked. @Faraudo other than Elliot's battle with Mr. Robot, I'm failing to see how the plot ran in circles. If anything it felt like Elliot's arc ran in a circle while everyone else's took off in crazy directions. Well at least that's how I saw it.
sempiturtle 12.23.16	Stranger Things is the best thing I watched this year.
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.23.16	yall stay sleeping on Rectify [2] YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS. Only 4 episodes left till the end for me. Gonna have it wrapped by Christmas.
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.23.16	Also watch Halt & Catch Fire you plebs.
JeetJeet 12.23.16	Last season of H&CF was great. That show really went from just being ok to pretty dope imo.
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.23.16	"Nothing happened at Comdex." Sure thing, Cameron. Sure thing.
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.23.16	I liked it from S1 tho. Lezzie haircut Cameron was hot af and I liked the whole original gang building the Giant.
JeetJeet 12.23.16	@ghost Yea the earlier seasons were nice too when you look at everyone's progression, especially Ryan's. Is the next season the last one?
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.23.16	Yeah S4 is the final season (which is good cause they know in advance and get to end it on their own terms). What'chu mean Ryan tho cause he only was in S3?
JeetJeet 12.23.16	lol my b I had a totally different show on my mind and got mixed up. I'm hoping they stick the landing next season tho.
Storm In A Teacup 12.23.16	I've seen none of these and I'm pretty sure I'd only heard of one of them before reading this list.
JeetJeet 12.23.16	@Storm Well if you're into science fiction, check 1& 2. If you want something more realistic and gritty check out 4. #3 is filled with over the top action. If you want to laugh tho I'd suggest 5 & 9. 12 is a surrealist rom-com. Its weird as shit but extremely relatable when it comes to romance.
Egarran 12.23.16	" Planet Earth 2 filled me with joy and optimism." Ehhh thanks, but I want fiction. Also it has plenty of tension. I want just one tv show without death or crime or war or suffering or existentialst identity crises. After Walking Dead and Westworld I'm pretty sure I have filled my quote for watching people get shot for the next 1000 years. I can't take more desensitization!
JeetJeet 12.23.16	Hmmm....17 is pretty tension filled but doesn't have a lot of crime or war. 10 is great too. Also try Halt & Catch Fire. OR you could try The Girlfriend Experience, which is a very moody slowburn type of show without any violence/death.
Deez 12.23.16	Just checked out first few episodes of Quarry, Feeling it. Good shout.
JeetJeet 12.23.16	Hope you enjoy. The 4th episode & the finale are real gems in particular.
Asdfp277 12.23.16	RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars 2
Evreaia 12.23.16	RuPaul's Drag Race Saw like a couple of episodes because a friend of mine is a big fan of it. Was fucking hilarious.
Faraudo 12.27.16	@JeetJeet Well, for starters, Elliot's the main character, so he shouldn't be running in circles, narrative-wise it's a pretty stupid decision, and he should be going along with the plot in some form. The only real interesting arc was Angela's, her character developed greatly, and some crazy shit happened with her. Third, Tyrell. I'm not gonna say anything because I don't want to spoil it, but fuck.
Faraudo 12.27.16	And also, there are some HUGE plot holes.
Storm In A Teacup 12.27.16	@jeet: I don't know man. the last tv series i actively watched was prison break and that was such a good show it's been almost ten years and I'm still satisfied with what I got out of prison break and the thought of watching tv again seems silly because there's nothing to get out of it. I won the lottery with prison break (and 24, but prison break is GOAT)
tre 12.27.16	No Game of Thrones?
Storm In A Teacup 12.27.16	no.
Avagantamos 12.27.16	12 monkeys is my favorite movie I may have to check it out. how does it compare?
brainmelter 12.27.16	thasa a lota shows
JeetJeet 12.28.16	@tre nah I really don't care for that show tbh. @Storm I get what you're saying. I'd still recommend Black Mirror though since every episode is different and is like a mini-movie. You'd probably enjoy one ep of BM more than anything else you'd see on TV. @Avag The show is dope IMO. The first season is a lil shaky but mostly good. S2 is where the show really comes into its own and gets really fun.
Chortles 12.28.16	black mirror is kind of stupid but i still like it for some reason
Funeralopolis 12.28.16	really been meaning to get around to westworld and black mirror, sounds super cool
dbizzles 12.28.16	Westworld and Better Call Saul were both fantastic for the most part (Fuck Chuck[2]) and Always Sunny was great. Only other show I watched on here was Preacher and I thought it was absolute dog shit, with very few redeeming qualities. Real interested in Black Mirror.
JeetJeet 12.28.16	@Funeral yea check WW and BM. @Dbizzle I know you hate Preacher but I'm optimistic about the next season. S1 was just the prequel to s2, or so i hear.
dbizzles 12.28.16	Yeah, I hear that too. It's nice that they might be able to do it right from here on out, but I don't know if it will be redeemed for me. I want to like it. Most of the casting is good, they just did some really bad shit in the first season and it seemed to get worse and worse throughout.
GhostOfSarcasticBtrd 12.28.16	I guess I'm in the minority here since I have been unimpressed with Black Mirror. Just watched another one last night and again, was pretty meh. Seen like 50% of 'em so far and don't really want to keep going.
runaways 12.28.16	Just going to assume you're not into cartoons but Steven Universe's third season is one of the best seasons any cartoon has ever had. That's a fact.
parksungjoon 12.12.20	i dont watch tv
Get Low 02.10.21	13 reasons y
