Honorable mention – Tulsa King – Taylor Sheridan keeps the drama coming.

5. Peacemaker. James Gunn made the “Skip Intro” button obsolete.

4. Black Bird. Larry Hall has to be the most underrated actor working.

3. House of the Dragon. Season one is character-building, but it brings the familiarity of GOT.

2. Severance. – I am not sure if I am smart enough to understand this show, but I enjoyed it.

1. Andor. I don’t know all of the Star Wars lore, but I loved the spy aspect of this show.

James Gunn has to be the only director in the world that can make us care for a Tree, a Shark, and now an Eagle.  Eagly, Peacemaker’s sidekick is by far the scene stealer of this show.

Cena was a stand-out in The Suicide Squad, an impressive feat considering the cast, and what is crazier yet, he is even better in Peacemaker.  I wasn’t sure what we were in for after watching the first opening dance montage, but Gunn made the “Skip Intro” button obsolete with this series.

I cannot say enough good things about Peacemaker.  It is loud, raunch, gory, heartwarming, and hilarious.  Peacemaker feels perfectly in sync with the spirit and tone of The Suicide Squad, and offers another reason why Gunn’s incredible talents might be the one thing Marvel and DC fans can both agree on.  If you are a fan of superheros or great storying telling, Peacemaker is a must watch.

Honorable Mention – “Invincible.”  The only reason this did not crack the top five, its an animated series.  I really enjoyed this series, and the voice talent is amazing.  J.K. Simmons is fantastic as Omni-Man.  If you are a fan of the Walking Dead, you will recognize almost all of the voices in this series.  If you can look past this being animated, give it a shot.

5-“Only Murders in the Building.” Nothing new from Steve Martin or Martin Short, but they deliver on the laughs.  You can tell the two of them were having fun throughout the entire series.  Selena Gomez gives an outstanding performance as Mabel.  She almost steals scenes away from Martin.  If you need a laugh, Only Murders in the Building is available on Hulu.

4- “Dopesick.”  Like the drug at the center of the drama, Dopesick is, in the most positive sense of the word, addictive.  I was hooked within the first 20 minutes.  Dopesick depicts the rise and fall of Oxycontin and the Sackler family.  Very informative, yet you will be upset with pharmaceutical industry after watching.

3- “Hawkeye.”  Definitely the most grounded of all the Marvel series this year.  I am a sucker for New York City at Christmas.  The city adds to the charm of the show.  A fun, free-wheeling action show energized by scene-stealing Hailee Steinfeld.

2- “WandaVision.”  It is a slow burn to start.  Once you get past the first three episodes, the action picks up.  Elizabeth Olsen is a powerhouse, it required guts to start the MCU television history with a sitcom mashup. Marvel took their best female character and developed the hell out of it.  A must watch for all Marvel fans.

1- “Ted Lasso” The rare series which appeals to almost everyone. I have yet to find a person who has said they haven’t enjoyed it.  Ted Lasso might be the best feel-good show I have ever watched.  It is a must watch for everyone.

Like the drug at the center of the drama, Dopesick is, in the most positive sense of the word, addictive.I was hooked within the first 20 minutes.  Dopesick depicts the rise and fall of Oxycotin and the Sackler family.

Dopesick has an incredible lineup of actors including Michael Keaton, Kaitlyn Dever, Will Poulter, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Peter Sarsgard to name a few.  All who deliver stellar performances.  If you are looking for an informative but not preachy mini series, Dopesick is worth a try.

In an over saturated genre of superhero shows, Invincible manages to rise above them as a bloody good time. It delivers a new take on classic superhero cartoons, with spectacular gory action and a mature storyline. The animation itself is great, for the most part, and the voice acting is exceptional. Invincible has some incredible voice talent from J.K. Simmons to Zachary Quinto, and even Mark Hamill.

The story is filled with great mysteries and the finale is emotionally impactful. The show does slow down in the middle and the teen drama tends to feel at odds with the colossal superhero storyline around it.  If you’re a fan of animated shows with adult themes, I would highly recommend Invincible.  (Season 2 & 3 have been greenlit)

This miniseries is interesting, gripping, and accomplished what it set out to achieve which is making the viewer continuously question “did he do it?”  Defending Jacob is a compelling story about a boy charged for murder as his bully is found murdered a park near his house. The show focuses on how everything changes immensely for family once their child becomes main suspect in a murder case.

Chris Evans, Michelle Dockery and Jaeden Martell giving us very realistic performances.  It is difficult to see Chris Evans as any character other than Captain America, and there is a bit of Cap in his performance.  I will say this: Was Defending Jacob worth Watching?  Absolutely.
