I feel slightly betrayed that you put Jane the Virgin in the thumbnail and did not talk about it. But oh well. I definitely need to watch season 2 of Dirk Gently. I want to rewatch the first season before though
Christine, a 10 minute ad showed up before this video played, and because I am a fan, I didn't skip it and instead endured all the boring 10 minutes of that ad so you can make that youtube green. You're welcome.
My absolute favourite show is Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It’s one of the most amazing, diverse, feminist shows i’ve ever seen. It discusses homophobia, racism, feminism, different families etc. There is so much representation; 2/6 main characters are jewish, 2/6 are latinx, 2/6 are black, 2/6 are LGBT. The dynamic is amazing at all times and all of their individual friendships are so unique. They’re all lovable and cute and hot
You HAVE to binge watch SKAM!!!! Its my all time favorite show, theres 4 seasons that you can stream on dailymotion, I finished it like 6 months ago and still think about it everyday. Its EVERYHTINGGGG
Oh and now I recommend you Agents of Shield. Seriously the show is so good, it has such good writing, storylines, character development and so many plot twists, its so crazy and the show runners and writers love to mess with out heads and our emotions lol It has 5 seasons and it got renewed for season 7 and season 6 hasnt come out yet, how crazy! Seriously watch it! Sorry not sorry I wrote a lot but I love this show so bad!! 🙌
CHRISTINE you absolutely HAVE TO read The Girl With the Red Balloon if you haven't already! It is such a good book! Not enough people know about it and it's such an amazing book! If I could, I would force everyone to read it! If you made a book talk about it or even just mentioned it in a video I feel that so many more people would read it and be able to know the amazing story! It left me in tears toward the end and is such a wonderful book that makes you think about and question so many things. So READ IT!
Killing Eve! It's a drama about an MI5 agent chasing down an assassin, and on one hand I could argue that the main characters are both kickass women, but on the other I could argue that it's fantastically written show with believable characters. (In Australia you can watch it free on iView too which is pretty cool) Also Great News, which is a sitcom. Completely different vibe but for someone who doesn't laugh out loud watching shows often it had me in tears. BOTH ARE GREAT AND I NEED MORE SEASONS
I watched both The Marvellous Mrs Maisel and Crazy Ex Girlfriend (can't wait to see how it all ends) after you recommended them and I love them both so much, I'm very grateful for the recommendation!
One of my absolute fave shows right now is The Magicians! Based on the book series of the same name by Lev Grossman its like an adult grittier and darker harry potter crossed with chronicles of narnia and its amazing! It has some of the best characters (namely Eliot) on tv right now in my opinion. (book series is also great)
THE FACT THAT YOU USED SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW IN THIS JUST MADE ME REALLY REALLY HAPPY!!! An iconic song from an iconic movie. Highly recommend Eurotrip if you want to watch a trash comedy from the early 2000s...plus it has a Matt Damon cameo so it has to be good lol
Have you watched 'Elite' on Netflix? It's 'Big little lies' meeting 'gossip girl' but in Spain and I binged the whole thing in two days. IT'S SO GOOD. More people need to watch it
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is so good! Also you NEED to watch On My Block. It’s a highly underrated Netflix original that deals with super important issues while also being funny and cute and more people need to watch it I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I feel like you would really like Anne With An E! Heartwarming and makes you feel good but gets you with the feels too. I read Outlander but I need to watch the Tv Series like stat!
Uh, if you like westworld, check out Dollhouse. It's a much more grounded, (and personally, better) realistic approach to westworld. And way more on the emotional side as well compared to westworld which is more plot focused. And also, haven't watched the full video yet but the magicians better be on here. Also, I disagree with season 3 of outlander being the best. Season 3 was the worst from the second Claire stepped foot into Scotland again(other than that bones foreshadowing at the beginning). And thank you for having CXG on the list. Its literally my favourite musical show ever. And I'm excited af for marvelous mrs. Maisel season 2. I'd honestly replace the handmaid's tale with the magicians and this list corresponds pretty well with mine. The magicians is literally one of the best shows I've ever seen. Ever. And that's more than 300+ series including gems like limmy's show, game of thrones, the sopranos, CXG, Outlander and the marvelous mrs Maisel. The show just does everything so well. Sure, the storytelling suffered slightly in the first two episodes of season one because you needed to know a little bit about the characters from the books to be able to understand them more. But other than that, the show is pretty fucking flawless.
@@crono_digger uh no. Sure, the first five episodes are pretty slow but episode six was swhen fox stopped Intervening and let joss get creative and holy fuck that show got so much better. Believe me, I too dismissed it when it aired the first time even though I was super interested in the concept. I decided to watch it a few years ago. Have done six rewatches of the entire series at this point.
Dirk Gently is one of the most underrated series I’ve watched in a few years. I almost cried when I heard it wasn’t renewed. 😭 Also Troll Hunters was surprisingly enjoyable ❤️👍
Jessica Jones is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE show. It was such a pleasant surprise. Both the seasons were so good. Definitely a bingeworthy show. And the characters are so interesting and awesome.
I wanted to read Outlander first, but I unhauled them, because I just know that I won't read them all, so I'm super excited to finally start the TV show! I do really want to read The Handmaid's Tale first though... but again, so excited to watch that one as well! That intro tho... such good editing!
I am so behind on This is Us but that show is my JAM. My favorite show this year has got to be Anne with an E, it's just so well written and the characters are fantastic.
I don’t know if I’ve ever heard you reference watching Galavant but I tore through it so quickly this summer because it filled a bit of that Crazy Ex Girlfriend hole!
Hi Christine! Not sure if your familiar with Anne with an E? It's a netflix original based on anne of green gables but a little darker than the classic. If you havent seen it yet you can watch on netflix. 😊 pleeease do a review once you do! I love your channel and has been my go to for book and series recommendations! 💛
My Grandmother loves Outlander so much but she only owns the books and the first season, literally every time I go to her house she's watching the show. She first watched it in 2015, GUESS WHAT I'm GETTING HER FOR BIRTHDAY/CHRISTMAS I'm dead inside that CEGf is ending BUT I'm glad they're not forcing it to go on and only doing what they planned!!
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is the best best best!!! I'm so sad this is the last season. I'm not usually into musicals that much, but damn, this show is on another level. I'll never forget some of the musical numbers/songs.
My family has been watching survivor literally since I was born. I haven’t watched the last few seasons but I’m gonna try and watch this season. I also agree with everything you said about dirk gently. I just had so much fun watching it ( and seeing ostric was also a plus) and I was really sad when I found out it was t getting a third season. Marvelous ms maisel was so good and I’m so excited for season 2.
Loved a lot of those, some id never heard about and now I want to watch. But I gotta say handmaids tale, survivor and dirk gently some of my favorites 😍😍
Hey Christine I hope you're good if I'm not mistaken I believe you've watched The Vampire Diaries and maybe hopefully the originals and I'm curious if you're going to watch Legacies which comes out next Thursday on the CW
The Handmaid's Tale is by far my favourite tv show. It was my favourite last year and again this year. I think I cried in basically every episode. It's really heavy and not really something you want to binge watch. I cannot wait for more. Other favourites are: Bojack Horseman, Sharp Objects, Dark and American Horror Story. Yeah I like a lot of dark stuff. I watch anime and kids shows to balance it out
My boyfriend and I binged Dirk Gently's and we loved it!! So sad there aren't going to be more episodes.. I also watched Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: So excited for the last season! It is so great!!
Jessica Jones was great this year!! Also Sharp objects, 9-1-1, Glow and I feel like daredevil season 3 that is still to come is going to be epic. Handmaids tale was disturbing but some of the best TV ever and marvelous mrs. Maisel was is underrated!!
I feel slightly betrayed that you put Jane the Virgin in the thumbnail and did not talk about it. But oh well. I definitely need to watch season 2 of Dirk Gently. I want to rewatch the first season before though

Larkspur Your loyalty is off the charts
Where was Jane the Virgin on the list?
CRAZY EX IS MY FAVORITE SHOW THIS PAST YEAR!! But also Handmaid's Tale!
The Good Place, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Younger, Jane the Virgin, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, all such good shit
DID SOMEONE SAY BROOKLYN NINE-NINE
I would just like to point out that I was watching the Good Place when everyone else was sleeping on it.
Isra Qadri -just came here to say I love your profile picture-
Isra Qadri Can't really say the same 😅 but i regret NOTHING!
Me too! Every single girl at my school acts like it was there show, and I said Bish I’m here from the start
Isra Qadri same I’ve been here since episode one!
Aye me too! Watched season 1 like the day it came out 😂
I heard that season 4 of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is the finale season. I’m excited and sad at the same time!
My absolute favourite show is Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It’s one of the most amazing, diverse, feminist shows i’ve ever seen. It discusses homophobia, racism, feminism, different families etc. There is so much representation; 2/6 main characters are jewish, 2/6 are latinx, 2/6 are black, 2/6 are LGBT.

You HAVE to binge watch SKAM!!!! Its my all time favorite show, theres 4 seasons that you can stream on dailymotion, I finished it like 6 months ago and still think about it everyday. Its EVERYHTINGGGG
the way you described the process of watching Dirk Gently is so accurate, so excited to watch season 2.
i now have so many shows i NEED to watch.
SO GLAD YOU'RE ENJOYING DIRK GENTLY!! =D
Oh and now I recommend you Agents of Shield. Seriously the show is so good, it has such good writing, storylines, character development and so many plot twists, its so crazy and the show runners and writers love to mess with out heads and our emotions lol It has 5 seasons and it got renewed for season 7 and season 6 hasnt come out yet, how crazy! Seriously watch it! Sorry not sorry I wrote a lot but I love this show so bad!! 🙌
Christine you should definitely check out Haunting of Hill House on Netflix. I know you’re not a big horror fan but the storytelling is amazing.
Watch Cable Girls on Netflix!! Set in late 1920s Madrid. Jane the Virgin meets Pretty Little Liars but so much more.
Christine watch Money Heist on Netflix. It’s a Spaniard show so if you don’t mind subtitles you should give it a try !
Christine! You should watch Succession and Sharp Objects! They’re both HBO shows and they’re absolutely fantastic.
Sharp Objects has been on my to watch list since it came out! i need to hit that up!!! =D
SHARP OBJECTS IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE SHOWS. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR I LOVED IT
Christine is gonna LOVE Sharp Objects, I can tell:))
100% recommend Silicon Valley, I binged it last month and fell in LOVE!
I was trying to figure out what tv show to start watching so this is right on time!!!
CHRISTINE you absolutely HAVE TO read The Girl With the Red Balloon if you haven't already! It is such a good book! Not enough people know about it and it's such an amazing book! If I could, I would force everyone to read it! If you made a book talk about it or even just mentioned it in a video I feel that so many more people would read it and be able to know the amazing story! It left me in tears toward the end and is such a wonderful book that makes you think about and question so many things. So READ IT!
I discovered Timeless this year and IT'S THE BEST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME, CHRISTINE IT'S SO GOOD
Killing Eve! It's a drama about an MI5 agent chasing down an assassin, and on one hand I could argue that the main characters are both kickass women, but on the other I could argue that it's fantastically written show with believable characters. (In Australia you can watch it free on iView too which is pretty cool)
Also Great News, which is a sitcom. Completely different vibe but for someone who doesn't laugh out loud watching shows often it had me in tears. BOTH ARE GREAT AND I NEED MORE SEASONS
I say this on every video but you gotta watch 3% on Netflix! It’s kinda like a mix between hunger games and Divergent. You’d love it!
I watched both The Marvellous Mrs Maisel and Crazy Ex Girlfriend (can't wait to see how it all ends) after you recommended them and I love them both so much, I'm very grateful for the recommendation!
One of my absolute fave shows right now is The Magicians!

Dirk gently is also on Netflix in the uk anyway. Also it’s a book series by Douglas Adams. I think you might like them.x
Have you watched 'Elite' on Netflix? It's 'Big little lies' meeting 'gossip girl' but in Spain and I binged the whole thing in two days. IT'S SO GOOD. More people need to watch it
Omg same. I've been trying to convince *cough force cough* my friends to watch it. So excited for the next series!
mia e-b Yeah, me too! 😂 I don't know why more people aren't watching it. It's so good!! I can't wait for the new season 🙌🏻
Christine!!! I was just over Dirk Gently's being cancelled and now all the feels are back!!! I love that show SO MUCH!!!!
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is definitely one of my all time favourite shows! I'm so glad to hear you talk about it!
Glad, that This Is Us in #1. Honestly, it deserves it, it's a wonderful, heartwarming television show.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is so good! Also you NEED to watch On My Block. It’s a highly underrated Netflix original that deals with super important issues while also being funny and cute and more people need to watch it I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
You have to watch Schitt's Creek all 4 season are on netflix and season 5 is coming in January. I love it so much.
I just realized I get most of my tv show recommendations from you!
Also, I love The 100, The Fosters, and Jane the Virgin.
okay, but the Scotty Doesn't Know at the beginning. ICONIC song from an even more ICONIC movie.
THE HANDMAID'S TALE SEASON 2 WAS BOMBBBBB. Also I recommend that you watch Sharp Objects, it's amazing!
It’s been a while since a window shade vid, it’s so comforting
I don't really watch TV but I still want to watch all of these shows just because you seem so excited about them!
YOU SHOULD WATCH BROOKLYN NINE NINE ITS MY FAVOURITE
I feel like you would really like Anne With An E! Heartwarming and makes you feel good but gets you with the feels too. I read Outlander but I need to watch the Tv Series like stat!
Uh, if you like westworld, check out Dollhouse. It's a much more grounded, (and personally, better) realistic approach to westworld.

Aditya Upadhye dollhouse fell a part real quick. But the premise was amazing
@@crono_digger uh no. Sure, the first five episodes are pretty slow but episode six was swhen fox stopped Intervening and let joss get creative and holy fuck that show got so much better. Believe me, I too dismissed it when it aired the first time even though I was super interested in the concept. I decided to watch it a few years ago. Have done six rewatches of the entire series at this point.
@@crono_digger I agree Dollhouse could have been so good and was a let down.
I just rewatched your top ten for 2017 and was asking myself when the list for this year was going to be here and now it's here! Jaaaay! :)
Watch Call the Midwife! I just finished season 7 and it is such a wonderful, heartfelt, sometimes heart wrenching, show.
The Handmaid's Tale was the only show I watched in June, week to week, it was SO GOOD! Thank you for recommending Parenthood I'm loving it!
You MUST watch Brooklyn Nine Nine! You’ll laugh out loud! You’ll fall in love with every single character!
Nat F your comment convinced me
Dirk Gently is one of the most underrated series I’ve watched in a few years. I almost cried when I heard it wasn’t renewed. 😭 Also Troll Hunters was surprisingly enjoyable ❤️👍
Omg yessss I'm so happy This is us is in your 1st position! It's my favorite show ever, and I watched it thanks to your recommendations 🙌❤️
THIS IS US SAISON ONE IS LIFE. I loved it so so so much. And the pointes you talked about were excellent. *waintingforyourbook*
Jessica Jones is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE show. It was such a pleasant surprise. Both the seasons were so good. Definitely a bingeworthy show. And the characters are so interesting and awesome.
I wanted to read Outlander first, but I unhauled them, because I just know that I won't read them all, so I'm super excited to finally start the TV show!
I do really want to read The Handmaid's Tale first though... but again, so excited to watch that one as well!
That intro tho... such good editing!
I highly recommend you check out Brooklyn Nine-Nine! The producer of the show also created The Good Place so they're both similar in some ways ❤️
OMG someone that watched The Man In the High Castle, it is so good and the third season finale was the best so far.
I'd love to know what you think about Lucifer if you've seen it - it has really interesting characters so I'd be interested to hear your take on it!
I am so behind on This is Us but that show is my JAM. My favorite show this year has got to be Anne with an E, it's just so well written and the characters are fantastic.
Christine! Have you watched Brooklyn 99? I'm REALLY into it right now.
I don’t know if I’ve ever heard you reference watching Galavant but I tore through it so quickly this summer because it filled a bit of that Crazy Ex Girlfriend hole!
If you haven't seen them already, I recommend: The Gifted, iZombie, and Lucifer
Jane the Virgin in the thumbnail but not in the honorable mentions or top 10?!?! I loved this past season and can't wait for it to come back!
I was literally rooting for This Is Us to be on top of the list! It's so amazing and well done and my God, season 2 ripped my heart out.
YES MRS. MAISEL!
Hi Christine! Not sure if your familiar with Anne with an E? It's a netflix original based on anne of green gables but a little darker than the classic. If you havent seen it yet you can watch on netflix. 😊 pleeease do a review once you do! I love your channel and has been my go to for book and series recommendations! 💛
Why do you have to post around the same time as Shane I can't decide 😭
Abba Maria
The true struggle
WATCH THE DRAGON PRINCE, ITS ABSOLUTE PERFECTION I LOVE IT SO MUCH!
The Little Readers Corner I agree! I’m hooked.
TDP IS MY NEW OBSESSION
Thanks for the recommendations, I had already some on the ones you mentioned on my list and I'm adding more now!
started a 30 day trial of amazon prime yesterday just to binge the marvelous mrs maisel
Can I just say that your editing is so so cool!!
Christine, you need to watch Timeless on NBC! It only has 2 seasons but it's getting a movie in the next couple of months!
The man in the high castle ❤️❤️ it’s so amazing, just watched season 3 !
I think you should try watching "The Flash" or "Supergirl" or "American Vandal" or "The Rain" or "The Sinner".
My Grandmother loves Outlander so much but she only owns the books and the first season, literally every time I go to her house she's watching the show. She first watched it in 2015, GUESS WHAT I'm GETTING HER FOR BIRTHDAY/CHRISTMAS
I'm dead inside that CEGf is ending BUT I'm glad they're not forcing it to go on and only doing what they planned!!
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is the best best best!!! I'm so sad this is the last season. I'm not usually into musicals that much, but damn, this show is on another level. I'll never forget some of the musical numbers/songs.

Oh my gosh, I love Jessica Jones. And your make up is fantastic as always.
Loved a lot of those, some id never heard about and now I want to watch. But I gotta say handmaids tale, survivor and dirk gently some of my favorites 😍😍
So many new ones on the list this year! I loved the past season of Jane the Virgin. Gina is amazing!
Hey Christine I hope you're good if I'm not mistaken I believe you've watched The Vampire Diaries and maybe hopefully the originals and I'm curious if you're going to watch Legacies which comes out next Thursday on the CW
Christine, please watch Search Party. I keep telling everyone in my life to watch it AND NO ONE WILL! BUT IT'S SO GOOD!
The Magicians and iZombie are still my faves. They’re just excellently told!
The Handmaid's Tale is by far my favourite tv show. It was my favourite last year and again this year. I think I cried in basically every episode. It's really heavy and not really something you want to binge watch. I cannot wait for more.
Other favourites are: Bojack Horseman, Sharp Objects, Dark and American Horror Story. Yeah I like a lot of dark stuff. I watch anime and kids shows to balance it out
Jane the virgin is my favorite show I've rewatched both seasons and now I'm waiting for the new season!!!💗💗💗
YES DIRK GENTLY I AM SO SAD IT GOT CANCELED I CANT EVEN DEAL WITH IT, someone needs to bring that show back right now!
My boyfriend and I binged Dirk Gently's and we loved it!! So sad there aren't going to be more episodes..
I also watched Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: So excited for the last season! It is so great!!
I love This Is Us and Outlander, thanks for the other recommendations!
I recently watched last year's video of your top ten tv shows again. I LOVE THE GOOD PLACE AND THE BOLD TYPE. Also really obsessed with Riverdale
lol yay!! i'm also super on board with Riverdale now, there's just too many other great shows, it didnt make the list XD
I literally look forward to this every year
You need to watch Cable Girls, I watch it until 3AM, I couldn't stop. Highly recommend it!
The editing is on point.. this video is a masterpiece. Good job 👏 ❤️
If you liked parenthood you should check out brothers and sisters which hulu is streaming. It's so good and so similar to parenthood!!!
I'm getting my mom The Handmaid's Tale for Christmas! Survivor is the best reality show. I'm glad the David v Goliath theme is ended on Weds.
I started watching The Crown on Netflix and it's actually pretty good!
You should watch Netflix’s new show Maniac
was the song at the honorable mentions Scotty doesn't Know or does it just sound similar?
The man in a high castle is such an underrated show.
I would recommend everyone to o watch orphan black, it’s just kinda the most incredible show you’ll ever watch
Ugh yes Crazy Ex Girlfriend ❤️❤️ also what lipstick are you wearing? It'd so pretty!
The good place omg love it and the Alienist so so good
I cry every episode of this is us too. 😭❤️
I'm so glad The Handmaid's Tale was on this list!!!! It's my favourite show
You love character driven shows so much I hope you watch The Haunting of Hill House. Don’t let the horror scare you off it’s SO GOOD
Have you watched broad city?
I love the format, or whatever you call it, of your list videos.
Jessica Jones was great this year!! Also Sharp objects, 9-1-1, Glow and I feel like daredevil season 3 that is still to come is going to be epic. Handmaids tale was disturbing but some of the best TV ever and marvelous mrs. Maisel was is underrated!!
