New TV watched this last TV-type year:

Great:

Hannibal 3
Adventure Time 6
Better Call Saul 1

Maybe great:

The Walking Dead 5
Mad Men 7B
Community 6
The Leftovers 1

On the whole quite good:

Rick and Morty 2 (still a couple left)
Mr. Robot 1
Louie 5

Good at times:

Penny Dreadful 2

Some thing I watched:

Game of Thrones 5

True Detective 2:

True Detective 2

Can't remember what older stuff we might have watched. At least a couple: Nathan for You 1 & 2 were lots of fun. Black Mirror was a lot better than I'd've expected, though understandably uneven.

I loved Mr. Robot.

How Mr. Robot from the beginning in many different ways told us it was aping Fight Club. Interesting strategy, to announce its spoiler early so you frustrate yourself looking at all the details trying to prove it to yourself. It wouldn't work in a movie, but after eight or so hours I can't say "I knew it all along" anymore. I have to say I knew it all along but then I convinced myself I didn't.

Christian Slater was still the most annoying part of it.

I'm still in disbelief at how bad True Detective was. Almost the same level of disbelief, but inverted, at how good the first season was.
