With each passing year, cataloguing the best TV shows of the previous 365 days becomes harder and harder.
Want the best video game adaptation ever?Boom.
Youre gonna have to try harder than thatto trick the algorithm.
So why even bother with a Best TV Shows of 2023 list?
Same reason we want to go to the moon, asFor All Mankindcould tell you: because its there.
As long as TV is around were going to make the attempt to celebrate the best of it.
With that in mind, hey enjoy our selections for the best TV the year had to offer.
But this description barely scratches the surface of whatMrs.
Davisis about and how good it is.
Trust me, this one is worth the watch.

Here is a show that: 1.
Has seemingly an infinite budget thanks to its trillion-dollar studio.
Is based on one of the Western canons most important sci-fi stories.
Features Lee Pace shirtless extensively.
Actually hes more of a psychohistorian.

None of those resurrections, however, were less likely thanParty Downseason 3.
And that recognition led into this superb third season.
(Only poor Lizzy Caplan had to be left out due to a prior engagement).
But its all still just so, so funny.

A dark comedy, albeit, but a comedy all the same.
Or at least thats what its Wikipedia entry and its classification at awards shows would have you believe.
This was a bleak, dismal, upsetting, and near joyless season of television.
It was also pretty great!

Creators Donald Glover (Atlanta, Childish Gambino, et.

And boy, am I glad I did.
However, what Ronald doesnt realize is that the court case is fake and everyone else is an actor.

Beef
Available on:Netflix (U.S. and U.K.)
Beef.
Its not just whats for dinner.
Its whats the driving force behind Netflixs lean, mean miniseries of the same name.
Ali Wong and Steven Yeun are equally superb as beefers Amy Lau and Danny Cho.
Its a bit long but a great, worthwhile watch.

Its on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ everywhere else.
This is a show about a restaurant, right?
Why is it called The Bear?
Because lead character Carmine Carmy Berzatto sometimes goes by The Bear.
Wait, isnt The Bear also like the name of the restaurant?
Yes, but not for the first 15 or so episodes.
Thankfully, the quality is absolutely there forThe Bear.
Season 2 was more of the same…but even better.
Its quickly becoming the show of the decade.

A simple fact of life is that TV is just better when a great HBO drama is on.
Its no wonder then that they turned in an all-time season of television.
