Love Homeland with a passion. Damian Lewis is brilliant. The dud of the year to me would have to be American Horror Story. It's horrible cliched and leaves you not caring what happens. Comments 1.

All scores as of April 29, By a fraction of a point, the Shawn Ryan-produced police drama The Chicago Code earned the best reviews of any new broadcast show this season, edging out fellow Fox newcomer Raising Hope. However, in the season, three new network series scored higher than those shows' 75 , and seven of the top ten programs scored 70 or above, compared to just four this season.

The news was better for cable shows this year, with five shows scoring 81 or higher better than last year's total of two and another two just missing out, at Not all of these shows were hits, however; both of the FX programs on the list were canceled at the conclusion of their seasons, and the reality show Teach: Tony Danza certainly not a program we were expecting to see here was rushed off the air after bombing in the ratings.

Each one is getting a sequel. Best New Shows 1. Game of Thrones 2. The Killing 3. Boardwalk Empire 4. The Walking Dead 5. The Event I enjoyed the Event, but stop watching after it was axed.

The Event was good They each have the potential to get in the discussion with Deadwood and early seasons of Lost. To early to tell if they can reach The Wire or even touch the greatest piece of film work ever The Sopranos. I loved this article. And I have to agree with the people above me that Episodes is comedic brilliance. I hope it gets nominated for many an Emmy this year and am impatiently awaiting its second season.

However, my favorite new show of the year has to be Boardwalk Empire. I'm a sucker for period pieces though and damn, that show is the greatest period piece on TV since Mad Men. The Walking Dead is great, but 6 episodes was not enough for me to make a solid opinion.

It seemed more like a miniseries to me. I'll have a better opinion by its second season. For now, Episodes and Boardwalk Empire are the kings of the season. Haven't seen The Killing yet though. I'll get around to that next week.

I agree with most of the cancellations, but a few very good shows weren't mentioned perhaps because they air on cable. As someone mentioned above Episodes is brilliant in both the English and the American way. It's as if someone realised the world will never see Matt LeBlanc as anything but Joey and has thus brilliantly there's that word again scripted a show around it.

Still this might be the first time in a very long time that there seems to be so much good stuff on TV that there aren't enough hours in the day. Let's keep it up TV execs.

TV should always be a watchers market. It gave us a wonderful set up to the first series and Dustin Clare got a perfect introduction as "Gannicus" and did not disappoint filling Andy Whitfield's, who is still missed terribly, shoes as champion of the House of Batiatus.

John Hannah and Lucy Lawless were fantastic as usual. All three gave this tragic story a new look, these three characters all loved one another and none acted on base impulse and they were all characters the audience rooted for and the performances were wonderful giving the tragic ending so much more weight.
