TV Show Of 2013

This year alot of TV shows have taken a turn for the worst. 

Grey's Anatomy has been dragging this year. Repetitive and dragged out storylines and lack of a strong original cast. While there have been some engaging storylines they end up being predictable and a copy of something done in its previous 10 year history.


Family Guy had an interesting moment but killing off one of the main characters, only by bringing him back 2 episodes later, so obviously a ratings ploy on a slowly dying show. 

Dexter closed its 8 year run with an awful final season. The whole eighth season was slow, boring and very unrelated to the past Dexter seasons. Like everyone, I was hoping for an all out manhunt on Dexter with everyone finding out his true identity. However we were given a slow catch the killer and spent the entire season finding out about a woman who had never been in a previous season, so it felt a little too little too late. With a very poor, 'easy way out' ending, it left viewers feeling cheated and for me tarnished the entire show. Which is a shame because when it was good back in the days of season 2 and 5, Dexter was one of the best, only to die out slowly and painfully.  


While other shows such as The Big Bang Theory, Game Of Thrones, Fresh Meat and Moaning Of Life supplying pretty decent entertainment one show stood above the rest and showed everyone how it was done. 


Breaking Bad closed its 6 year, 62 episode run with a fantastic final season this year. Keeping every single viewer hooked until the literal last second it has fast become one of the greatest shows ever made. The character development, acting skills and directing stayed fresh and at its best until the very end. This makes it the best show of 2013.
