CJ, The ODI and guest Bradley debate the best and worst of 2013. As usual no one can agree and it leads to some funny arguments about what deserves the awards.
We unfortunately can't watch all TV shows so we have not mentioned some fan favourites however have your say in the comments below on what you think is deserving of awards.
It's our annual review of the year podcast but rather than having a typical "this is what we think was great" we like to argue the case for our favourite shows, what we found didnt live up to expectations and even make up some awards that you wouldn't find on a red carpet. You will also find some very immature and funny behaviour (even if it all just comes from CJ).
We have split the podcast into 2 parts of 1 hour each for easier listening. Keep an eye out for the Spoiler TV staff picks for the best shows of 2013 coming soon.(Update: click here)

Thanks for this guys!
ReplyDeletePART 1:
I have to say, I absolutely agree with you CJ about Amy Acker, she's easily one of my favorites. As much as I loved Taraji in her last episodes, Amy had many more amazing scenes both at the end of last season and at the beginning of this one. And yes to Michael Cerveris! He was brilliant! Then again, so many fantastic performances on Fringe in general (John Noble, Josh Jackson, Anna Torv...).
Also love the episodes you guys mention: Arrow's "Sacrifice", Person Of Interest's "The Crossing", "The Devil's Share", Fringe's "Enemy Of Fate" (!!!) and that HIMYM's scene was amazing.
But, I would definitely give John Noble Award to John Noble for last episodes of Fringe alone, but ALSO for Sleepy Hollow where he's pretty fantastic too. Also worth mentioning: Jensen Ackles, I don't know if any of you watches SPN, but I have to say, no matter what happens on this show, this guy always gives fantastic performances (and so does his co-star, Jared). Those two are brilliant. I so wish they would get more recognition. Maybe after SPN ends... Another one: Michelle Fairley. I can't believe after last season of GOT she's not mentioned more when it comes to awards.
PART 2:
Death scene - Carter or Red Wedding's victims, also worth mentioning Tommy on Arrow and Ryan on Nikita (very recent).
Yeah, I can't choose the worst show. Not good at it. But I feel like I have to say, I do love SHIELD! It gets better every week.
The FBI Award from me goes to Linda on Under The Dome. I can't believe she's a cop. That's just...no words. Don't watch The Following, so I don't know how things are there. I guess not good.
TV highlight of 2013: Doctor Who 50th celebration, Fringe's finale and Person Of Interest.
Best Film: So hard to choose. Haven't seen Hobbit 2 yet. Loved Iron Man 3, Catching Fire, Star Trek 2 and more. I would have to watch some more films and remember the ones I've seen. And then, I could maybe choose.
Same with the shows. I could name a few: Person Of Interest, Arrow, Sleepy Hollow (biggest surprise of the season for me), Doctor Who, Fringe... Some honorable mentions: Teen Wolf, Nikita, Continuum, Psych, The Mentalist. But I could name more ;)
My favorite comedies: new - B99, The Crazy Ones, Trophy Wife, returning - HIMYM, Parks and Rec. Also good: TBBT, Modern Family.

Best / Most shocking Death: Hank (BB) / Carter (POI) --- the slash inspired me to point out two deaths :)

I just realised how awesome this year was.
Love that you picked a Banshee episode. :-) :-)
ReplyDeleteI have to agree it was a great year, but also a sad one with so many good shows ending
ReplyDeleteAHS hasnt hooked me like it has last season, I'm a few episodes behind. Some great picks there :)
ReplyDeleteB99 has been a show that is slowly growing on me. I havent watched any of the other shows. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI totally agree that Mayim is amazing. I think she is becoming one of the best things on BBT
ReplyDeleteHostages deffo didnt live up to what the trailer made it out to be especially with some great actors in it
ReplyDeleteNPH is deffo one of the best comedy actors on screen at the minute.
ReplyDeleteGreat picks , i always love it when people pick person of interest ;)

Love Michael Sheen is a very diverse actor, I think he'll be winning awards next year
ReplyDeleteI think since she joined the show its become even funnier than it was, especially her scenes with Jim parsons they are always quality.
ReplyDeletetotally, they have great chemisty and comic timing
ReplyDeleteI think AHS hooks you when you have a special interest on the subject of the season so I loved the last two but not the first one, maybe that's why.
ReplyDeleteI think it is one of those shows I need to watch as a full season rather than waiting week by week
ReplyDeleteyou're goddamn right :)

Love how you put in the BatB, Castle and SPN tags even though we didn't mention them lol. This whole podcast is still making me laugh thinking about it.
ReplyDeleteits because we didnt mention them and they are popular shows on the site that also need a chance to have their views heard :)
ReplyDeleteJared Padalecki has been outstanding on SPN especially the back half of season 8 and so far this season essentially playing 3 characters. He's probably one of the most underrated and underapreciated actors on tv today. No matter what the show's writers throw at him (which is literally anything and everything) he always delivers amazing performances.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I definitely agree. SPN has such a talented cast :)
ReplyDeleteI will be doing this differently as one is just too little for me. I will give a top 6 for each category as if it were nominations:P
