It's been a bustling year in the TV universe — which is presently a considerable measure greater with the appearance of spilling administrations (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon et al.).
In this way, right away, here are our "2016 TV Yearbook" picks enveloping the best, brightest and, well, most noticeably awful snapshots of the year.
Best breakout: Issa Rae, "Shaky," HBO
Not at all like a portion of the more youthful female characters on premium link, Issa Rae struck a positive note immediately: She was a grown-up. Her character on "Uncertain" has a vocation. Furthermore, a soul. She has a face that can't lie and one of the best TV grins we've found in quite a while. It's addictive amusing to watch her chaos up, separate and make up with the youthful strivers in her circle. So we'll be back when "Uncertain" returns for Season 2.
Best Episode: "Home," "Round of Thrones," HBO
At the point when Jon Snow was wounded in this epic dramatization's Season 5 finale, diehard fans did not trust he was truly gone. In the second scene of Season 6, Ser Davos inevitably inquired as to whether she could resuscitate the Lord Commander. The Red Woman gave it a spin, droning and asking over Snow's showered carcass with Davos, Tormund and Edd seeking after a marvel. Not a chance. Vanquished, the gathering left the chamber. One moment: Suddenly Jon opened his eyes and relaxed.
Vindicated, the fans went crazy. What's more, the season was headed toward a running begin.
The Mr. TV Award: Steve Harvey
On the off chance that it appears that Harvey is here ("Family Feud"), there ("Showtime at the Apollo") and all over ("Little Big Shots"), this is on the grounds that he is. The uber-have has now supplanted Ryan Seacrest, whose "American Idol" gig finished, as the busiest man on the tube. Before long he'll have enough shows to have a Steve Harvey logbook — one for every month.
Best Sendoff: "Downton Abbey," PBS
Everyone adores a glad completion and the cherished "Downton Abbey" took care of the greater part of its potential issues with elegance and diversion. Woman Mary at long last remarried (to a normal person, however she got over the class contrast). Woman Edith quit crying and wedded a man who wouldn't fret that she had an unwanted youngster (noticing salts, please!). Bates and Anna respected an infant kid. Et cetera. Sins were excused, notorieties reestablished and as usual, the Dowager Countess had the last line. At the point when her companion Isobel Crawley asked at Edith's wedding, "What else would we be able to toast? We're going ahead into the future, not once more into the past," her answer was to the point: "If just we had the decision."
Best Slap: "The Good Wife," CBS
Diane Lockhart (Christine Baranski) truly handled a decent one against the disrespectful Alicia Florrick's (Julianna Margulies) frightened puss in this present dramatization's arrangement finale.
Greatest bother: "The Walking Dead," AMC
Who knew a zombie end times could be so exhausting? Season 7 bookended its first half by noting a cliffhanger in the most abhorrent conceivable design and a somewhat fulfilling gathering to send us off into break. The rest was just filler, bouncing among areas and the now-sprawling cast — entire scenes pass by without seeing fan top choices like Rick (Andrew Lincoln), Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) — with just peripheral headway of story.
Best Party Crasher: Samantha Bee
Samantha Bee may have been disregarded to have "The Daily Show," yet regardless: Her "Full Frontal" on TBS conclusively upset the late-night young men club with its brutal and gladly female perspective. Who's snickering now?
Best Revival: "Gilmore Girls," Netflix
That polarizing finishing aside, "Gilmore Girls" did the spin-off ideal, with a forcefully composed love letter to its fans that figured out how to impeccably reproduce that antiquated Stars Hollow ethos while, significantly, developing its center characters of Lorelai (Lauren Graham), Rory (Alexis Bledel) and Emily (Kelly Bishop).
