The Runners Up: More of 2010's Very Good, Pretty Good and Decent TV Shows

Filed under: Reality-Free, Stay Tuned

And now, may I present: The Runners Up.

These are shows that, for whatever reason, didn't make my Top TV of 2010 list. Some were in contention for that roster, but below, you'll actually see a few different categories:

• * The Best of the Rest (shows that were, at one point or another, in contention for my Top TV of 2010 list)
• * Honorable Mentions (shows that weren't in contention for my Top TV list yet have much to recommend them)
• * Shows that were on my Top 10 lists in previous years but which didn't make the cut this year
• * Shows with good elements, episodes and/or casts which were, at times, intensely frustrating
• * Shows I occasionally watch and enjoy to some degree but don't seek out every week

Hopefully this doesn't come off as a case of "Everybody gets a trophy" gone amuck, but rather, a way to commemorate a wide range of shows that had my attention at various times in 2010. Quite a few of you, in the comment area of my Top TV post, shared your own Top 10 lists (thanks for that!), and also wanted to know why certain shows weren't on my list.
