It’s weird watching TV these days.
There’s so much great content around that getting to it all, or honestly, just some of it because realistically that’s all you can manage, that you pretty much have to schedule time to watch what you want.
Easy enough I guess if your sole focus is watching all the great streaming content out there, but I, rather over-ambitiously, also trying to cram in watching movies at the cinema and streaming, and reading books and graphic novels all around a demanding full-time job.
I’m a Type A- extrovert so that makes sense I guess but it means I had to dial down what I got to TV-wise this year otherwise it was going to feel like another job which, really, is not the point of losing yourself in good televisual storytelling.
Still, even if it was a struggle to fit it all in, and it meant it felt like I was on a timer, I did manage to watch some wonderful TV, most notably the shows in this list but also some favourites that I watched just too watch them like Gardening Australia, Escape to the Country and a slew of history and real life documentaries which are just a delight to watch and make me feel gorgeously chilled and yes, informed.
