18. Dark Matter
19. Why?

So things have stayed fairly the same at the top. Mr. Robot is making a strong case for no. 1 as it heads into tonight's finale, but Rick and Morty, even after what I thought was their worst episode(still decent), is still the funniest, most inventive show on TV. I'm still only 3 episodes into OitNB. The fact that it's been so good in the past, has kept it on my list and away from the very bottom, but man I have no desire to watch it. 

I added a few new shows (in bold). They are, with the exception of the wonderful Documentary Now!, unimpressive thus far. Survivor's Remorse and The 100 I hear get better, so I'm going to give them some time. Dark Matter, I picked up because I have a soft spot for easy Canadian produced genre shows, but this really isn't doing it for me. 

Speaking of not doing it for me, why? why? am I still watching Why? with Hannibal Burress? I love Hannibal, and he can't help but be funny and charming a couple times an episode, but it just doesn't work as show. It turns out his laid back attitude doesn't translate into a well produced weekly variety show. Only one more left, so I might as well go down with the ship.

What this is

I am an unrepentant television addict, this is a ranking of the shows I'm currently watching. I've been doing this for over a year and I've decided to put it online, in the hopes that it will be my first step towards writing in depth about the thing I love most. But maybe that won't happen and this will forever be just a list of TV shows that I watch. I'm not opposed to that.

So a couple rules. The list is only for non-continuous shows. Something like Last Week Tonight with John Oliver would probably be at the top or near the top of every list. Also, the dates might not be exact, a show may have ended a couple weeks ago and I want to include it. I might throw in older shows that I'm finally deciding to watch(I'm looking at you Deadwood Season 2!) I'm not going to have a strict schedule for these, I'm just going to put them out whenever, but there will probably be at least a couple weeks in between each list.
