So can we wash away the shame of having chosen Orange is the New Black last year?  :hmm:

True detective or Fargo. I'll give the edge to TD.

I've only watched a couple of episodes of The Knick, but I like it.  True Detective was pretty great though, gotta vote for that one.

The accents in Fargo bother me too much.  I just can't stand it.  :Embarrass:

True Detective.  [spoiler]While the happy ending was a bit more formulaic that I had expected from the buildup, it wasn't enough of a drop to kill the whole effort.   It was still a tremendously done series.[/spoiler]

What part of "new show of 2014" did you not understand? :unsure:
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I'm voting for Transparent because almost no one else will.

Other - That one with the Bigfoot and the aliens hunting wild moose from the Alaskan train while being chased by two naked survivalists.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

I saw maybe an episode and a half of True Detectives, an episode and a half of Penny Dreadful, and about 10 minutes of Fargo.  Didn't care overly much for any of them.  So I guess I'll vote Jaron.

My list:

Fargo
Halt & Catch Fire
Marco Polo(probably inflated because I saw it over last couple weeks)
True Detective
Tyrant
Manhattan
Silicon Valley
Gotham
Salem
The Strain

For 2013 I would probably switch my vote to Brooklyn Nine Nine. Funniest show on tv right now.
