My Cat's Top Ten TV Picks for 2023



=1. Succession - the final season :( enthralling and brilliantly acted by the ensemble cast

=1. Slow Horses - Jackson Lamb is the wittiest character on screen

2. Murders in the Building - fun, and great New York scenery

3. Utopia - cannot get enough of this ABC satire on the public service; it is so accurate

4. The Great - final season, not quite as funny as the earlier seasons, but still brilliant

5. The Marvellous Mrs Maisel - also the last season - again, not quite as entertaining as earlier seasons, but still enjoyable

6. Rogue Heroes - hilarious and tragic story of the emergence of the SAS in World War II, including characters based on the actual original SAS members

7. Good Omen (season 2)  David Tenant and Michael Sheen are always great together - if you haven't watched it, try their COVID lockdown series Staged

8. Fargo - still watching the latest season, superb so far

9. Ghosts - also, and sadly, the final season... I'll miss these characters, Robin, Pat...

10. What We Do in the Shadows - amusing take on vampires in the modern era

Honourable mentions

11. Boston Strangler - gripping

12. Miracle Workers - End of Time - best of all the seasons so far - loved the references to the Terminator series, etc

13. Happy Valley - final season also, moving and tragic

14. Annika - Nicola Walker (also brilliant in the crime series The Unforgotten) breaking the fourth wall
