Switching Channels: 2021 TV Beyond the Watercooler (Patreon)

Even more so than film, television is a vast, varied, and ever-shifting landscape through which any given viewer will chart their own unique path. So rather than attempt any sort of definitive list of the best television of last year, Genevieve, Keith, and Tasha decided to highlight some of the 2021 series, both new and returning, that didn't receive the level of attention and/or discussion we feel they deserved. Please note that at least one of the series mentioned in this episode, which was recorded at the tail end of December, has picked up major buzz (buzz buzz) and become the very definition of a watercooler show (or whatever qualifies as such in the digital age), but that does not affect the enthusiasm with which Genevieve recommends it!

Of course, the dozen or shows discussed here represent just the tiniest sliver of worthwhile televisual programming that's out there, so please sound off in the comments about other shows from the last year you want to champion, or respond to our choices and give us some of the discussion about these shows we've been craving!
