1. Parks & Recreation (comfort funny show)
2. Sex and the City (perfect, no notes)
3. Avatar the Last Airbender (perfect, no notes)
4. Game of Thrones (it still being talked about to this day makes it the GOAT, sorry)
Honorable Mention: Freaks and Geeks (gone too soon)

Rough list off the top of my head.
1. Mad Men.
Has the best performances ever put to TV, I also feel that the writers were a lot more ambitious and more well read in regards to some of the themes on the show. It kind of loses steam towards the end, they run out of things to do. Perhaps alluding to the inevitablity of McCann?
2. The Sopranos
Everything that can be said about this show has been said. The dream episodes are the best ones.
3. Peep Show
The show should have ended after season 4. Seasons 5-8 are still good, but Seasons 1-4 are the best comedy ever put on TV.
4. Freaks & Geeks
Based on Paul Feig's plans for season 2, perhaps it's best that it ended after 1 season. This show meant so much to me when I was 16.

Over the last few years, I’ve started to purchase DVDs at the thrift store whenever I find a favorite or one I’ve been meaning to watch. They’re always super duper cheap (I’m talking a buck a pop) and it’s easy to check they’re in good condition.
Now I can always have my fave movies and shows on deck because eff’ these greeding streaming services 🖕🏽

My eldest kitty Moose was rescued through a foster network I was volunteering with, he is a very good goofy boy and I love his little “antlers” on his forehead!
My youngest kitty Lady Bug (the space between “Lady” and “Bug” is important as her noble title should always be addressed), is only a few months old but so brave and cuddly! Her little grinch hairs behind her ears are my fave.

In 2024, I experienced grief in all of its stages. Fundamentally it changed me - for better or worse? I’m working on that with my therapist.
I found myself listening to this song *a lot* throughout the year. Maybe it was the vulnerable and relatable lyrics mashed up with a uplifting melody, but something about the final lines…
*“It's that little souvenir of a colorful year
Which makes me smile inside”*
… always got to me. Hopeful, might be the feeling. Especially since it’s the only point in the song that she doesn’t reference it as a terrible year. To me it felt like she wanted autonomy over how she wanted her song, her story on the year to end. She defines it, rather than it defines her.
You can’t control when grief happens to you, but you can control how you decide to navigate through it. Maybe, just maybe, I could look back at my grief and let it go.
