TV was bizarre this yr.
In 2022, tv output elevated to 599 scripted sequence—essentially the most of all time, in response to FX’s annual tally. However thanks to 2 separate Hollywood strikes delaying productions and suspending airdates, that report is in no hazard this time round.
Nonetheless, because the headline notes, a minimum of 10 reveals have aired new seasons in 2023, so at Adweek, it’s our responsibility to let readers know one of the best ones to look at.
Nevertheless, “greatest” is so subjective. What does “greatest” even imply? As an alternative, we’ve gathered an inventory of essentially the most watchable, binge-able, can’t-look-away content material and streamable reveals, together with every thing from FBoy-filled actuality reveals to Pedro-Pascal-driven zombie dramas.
Whether or not or not our picks are the “greatest,” we will assure they’re objectively, extraordinarily and endlessly watchable.
10. FBoy Island, The CW
There will not be many end-of-year TV lists together with FBoy Island, however these lists are clearly incorrect.
At Adweek, we made certain our checklist was F’d up.
Within the actuality courting/competitors sequence, host Nikki Glaser guides three single girls by means of a deluge of suitors, with some being good guys and others being FBoys. If the ladies select good guys in the long run, they get to separate $100K. In the event that they select FBoys, the fellows can preserve the cash for themselves.
Earlier this yr, The CW saved FBoy Island after its premature cancellation on then-HBO Max, inflicting the lots to scream out a collective “F-Yeah!” And Season 3 doesn’t disappoint, with a former Bachelorette making an look, a lacking cupcake controversy and loads of FBoys saying FBye.
Others could disagree, however all we all know is you possibly can’t begin a TV checklist out a lot stronger than with FBoy Island. And when you did, the FBoys would do shirtless pushups till the stakes had been even. —Invoice Bradley
