  1. Friday Night Dinner: Season 1
    Even with the cross-pond cultural differences, young adults who are perennially baffled by their aging boomer parents will feel right at home here.
  2. The Hour (UK): Season 1
    An engaging yet taciturn new miniseries.
  3. Sing Your Song: Season 1
    Sing Your Song is broad and complete, but like most biographical documentaries of legendary performers that we've seen of late, it is also hagiographic.
  4. Rock Center with Brian Williams: Season 1
    The result was assured, quick-paced and enjoyably flavored with a few spicy dashes of Brian Williams's dry rub.
  5. Portlandia: Season 2
    The show seems markedly improved from its earlier efforts and somehow more confident in its writing and sense of nuance. It's also funnier.
  6. The Firm (2012): Season 1
    Enough happens to keep you from changing the channel, but there are hints of a show that could get dull fast.
  7. Smash: Season 1
    Smash is a case where not bad is plenty good enough.
  8. Game Change: Season 1
    Tiny flaws come close to undermining the success of Game Change as a mere film.
  9. Bent (2012): Season 1
    The show misses its mark--but not by much and not in any objectionable way.
  10. Scandal: Season 1
    It is stylish, hammy, sexy, dirty, devilish, laughably bad TV, the guiltiest pleasure since the network unveiled "Revenge."
