SPOILER ALERT: This video contains details of some very good TV series that aired in 2020.As you can see in the video above, the first part of Deadline’s Top 10 New TV Shows of the year has a different tone from the past. Going through my picks for number 10 to 6 this year became much more an appreciation than a celebration.However, I will tell you that if you are looking forYes, I know it was a touchstone for millions in the early weeks of the coronavirus pandemic.
made clear – I hated the Red State porn and exploitation of the blockbuster docuseries from directors Rebecca Chaikin and Eric Goode., the fact is it was the small screen that provided a lifeline to the world for many of us in 2020. Cut off from each other in trying to contain a virus that is now spreading faster and deadlier than ever before, TV in all its variants and platforms was both confessor and comfort in what seems like a terrible dystopian drama we are all still trapped in.
As well, this year of a bitterly fought election saw the rules of game literally change as political fact and fiction merged and went virtual towards a deepflake future. The Olympics was postponed as live sport disappeared for a while internationally and at home under Covid-19 lockdowns. Production on films and TV came to a halt in mid-March too. One of many results was that suddenly hours of programming was left empty. The equally suddenly, outliners and newcomers flooded in to fill the void.
As today’s list reveals, all of which led to some ambitious faceplants, some blasts from the past and some wonderful surprises. Keeping with past Top 10 traditions, there’ll be more to come on January 1 with Part 2 of our best New TV Shows of 2020. Before that the Top 5 lands and the number No. 1 is revealed, send me some suggestions you have if you feel like it.
