    NPR's Favorite TV Shows Of 2018

    This year we say goodbye to The Americans, but we also celebrate new gems like Queer Eye, Killing Eve and Homecoming.
    by Linda Holmes Dec 17, 2018 6 minutes
    <em>Queer Eye, Homecoming, Killing Eve, Vida, The Good Place </em>and <em>Big Mouth</em> all made NPR's top list.

    Hundreds and hundreds of series air every year. They are good and they are lousy; they are new and they are old. There's too much television for a comprehensive ranking, so Glen Weldon, Linda Holmes and Eric Deggans round up 16 of their favorite shows from 2018.

    The Americans (FX)

    The final season of this slow-burn, serious-minded series about a pair of KGB agents planted in the U.S. to raise a family and spy on government officials had its fans worried. Could the show, which so intricately examined the world of '80s spycraft through the lens of a thrillingly intense domestic drama, nail the dismount? Would Philip and Elizabeth (Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell) survive? Would their daughter, Paige (Holly Taylor), follow in their footsteps? Would their son, Henry (Keidrich Sellati) ... um, OK, no one wondered about Henry. The series finale managed to feel both surprising and inevitable, in a hugely satisfying way. — Glen Weldon
