Top TV of 2021

A decent year for streaming, with some gems amongst the mediocrity. Here are my favourites so far.

10. Upload - a murder-mystery technology dystopia. 

9. The Enfield Haunting - true 1970s horror.

8. Behind Her Eyes - schlocky thriller with a twist or two

7. Mr Mercedes - Stephen King's series brought to life by Brendan Gleeson

6. The Great - written to Perth's very own Tony McNamara

5. Locke and Key - yes, it's embarrassing to include a YA show in this list

4. Ghosts - consistently laughy

3. Wasted - the more juvenile successor to Spaced?

2. Only Murders in the Building - clever plotting and witty too, with Steve Martin and Martin Short

1. Bridget and Eamon - ridiculous Irish comedy set in the 80s, my decade. An unhappily married couple with between six and eight children.  

And special mentions to:

Brassic

Inside No 9

Mindhunters

Dr Death 

Succession 

The North Water 

What We Do in the Shadows 

Vigil 

The Marvellous Mrs Maisel 

The Walking Dead 

Fear the Walking Dead

Hopefully the Wheel of Time can be added to this list, once I binge through it.
