I think that coming up with a top ten list of TV shows has been much harder than I originally thought. Movies seem to be easier because they do not have the longevity or life-span that TV shows do. My early “cut” of the list featured only one half hour show on it and it felt out of place. It also managed to exclude many great half hour shows that I thought were deserving of being on the list so, as I announced via Twitter, I will also be posting a top ten half hour long TV shows of the decade because I believe that hour long and half hour long deserve their own separate categories.

Well I think My Top Ten Of The Decade attracted many people to the website and now it’s a matter of keeping people’s interest. Therefore I will be doing three more lists in the upcoming days/weeks. There will be two TV show lists, one that focuses on the best shows of 2009 and another that focuses on the top ten shows of the decade. The last list will be the top ten films of 2009, which may take some time because there are three more films that I want to see that may make it on the list (Broken Embraces, The Hurt Locker, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus). In other words, the two television lists will be out soon and the top ten films of 2009 list will be at least a week or two.

As far as the the best television shows of 2009 is concerned, I may or may not reduce that list from a top ten to a top five. Frankly there are just not that many GOOD shows on the air right now. I have been playing catch-up with some shows to try and improve the list but five may be all I need right now. The other two will stay at ten, unless I find an excuse to reduce those as well.

So please stay tuned and check back often. I am trying like hell to keep up with new reviews, news and announcements so that all of you can remain well informed.

More soon…
