“Box Cutter.” “Face-Off.” For Breaking Bad fans, the episode titles that book-end the outstanding fourth season say it it all. One of the things that’s worked so well for the AMC drama series from the start has been the pacing. Over the course of four seasons, we’ve witnessed Walter White’s slow transformation from a regular man to a meth-cook living a double life that’s barely concealed anymore. He’s taken control of his life and in the process, transformed from a relatively harmless man into a man who’s willing to anything to stay alive, protect and provide for his family.
It’s hard to express how far Parks & Recreation came in 2011. Off the air for the entire 2010 fall season, it returned for its third season in January with two new cast members, Adam Scott and Rob Lowe, and a completely renewed sense of purpose. Gone was the awkward, Office-inspired humor of the first two seasons and the sense that Leslie Knope was a barely competent pain-in-the-ass who drove her coworkers crazy. Instead the show fully embraced its sweeter side, establishing the Parks Department as a strange but loving family, setting up a very real romantic spark between Ben and Leslie, and even softening up the scowling April with her romance and eventual marriage to Andy.
When fall started, Revenge seemed like the ultimate guilty-pleasure drama, however as the weeks went by, the guilt dissolved and the obsession set in. The series, follows the scheming of a young woman named Emily, whose father was wrongfully convicted. Emily’s on a mission to take down the people responsible for framing her father, which means posing as a wealthy girl summering in the Hamptons and immersing herself in society’s elite while she slowly unravels their lives from within.
IFC’s Portlandia has proven to be one of this year’s unexpected comedic treats for television in 2011. Created by Fred Armisen, Carrie Brownstein and Jonathan Krisel, and starring Armisen and Brownstein, the short-based comedy series is an amusing take on the hipster culture of Portland, Oregon. Each episode features Armisen and Brownstein portraying the various fictional inhabitants of Portlandia as they go about their lives, trying to be good (or superior) human beings, listen to the right music, eat the right food, wear the right clothes and converse about the right things.
It won’t be remembered as fondly as Shawn Ryan’s previous clever-and-cancelled Terriers, if remembered at all. Its absence is only slightly less disappointing. After 24, Fox couldn’t seem to create action-dramas that weren’t tethered to high-concepts or gimmicks. The Chicago Code avoids those trappings by keeping it simple with likable characters, a great setting, and shady political corruption. And despite hokey narration, the dialogue remains genuine and amusing.
Although 2011 hasn’t been the kindest year to Community and its fans, there is little doubt that the NBC comedy remains at the top of the class. The series continued to wow with wonderful performances, genre bending direction and probably the smartest writing of any situation comedy. However, these factors that make the show so inspired also make it demanding, and it’s already joining the ranks of other critically acclaimed, cult classics that were not long for this world.
Spartacus: Gods of the Arena was an epic, dramatic event that reveled in the garish and the gory. Creating a prequel for a second cycle in the absence of Andy Whitfield was a bold move, and one that probably shouldn’t have worked as well as it did. Set several years before the events in Vengeance, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena simultaneously manages to bring Crixus to the forefront, allows audiences to identify with morally bankrupt slave owners Lucretia and Batiatus, introduces a new prized warrior in Gannicus, and creates gladiator conflict that is both compelling and feels cut from the same cloth as its sister series.
Anytime you adapt a beloved series you are walking a fine line. Sure, you have a built in audience but also comes the pressure to impress. However, any time HBO is the one adapting the series, there’s always some reassurance that the source material will be handled with the utmost respect and care. D.B. Weiss and David Benioff, co-creators of the television series, have done just that delivering a series with fantastic writing, stunning visuals and an incredible ensemble cast.
If you aren’t a fan of Louis C.K. in his roles as stand-up comedian, writer, actor, director, truth-deliverer, redhead, or chronic masturbator, then there’s a world of disagreement between us. (Well his acting is mug-filled, but always fun to watch.) Louie’s second season continues to subvert tones and presentations for every story or idea. Quite often, these are ideas, surreally realistic moments that don’t need three acts to traverse the emotional spectrum. The first episode combines panic with strangers’ empathy before dive-bombing into carefree juvenility, and the curveballs seldom seem intentionally shocking. This is Louis C.K.’s mind on display. Nobody’s mind is linear.
The first season of Showtime’s Homeland was nothing short of fantastic and is definitely in the running for not just the best new series on television but for the best series period. Few series can come out of the gates running in their freshman year but with only 12 episodes there was simply no time for showrunners Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon to waste. Gansa And Gordon cut their terror television teeth working on 24 and yet, Homeland manages to capture all of the intensity of the often over the top series while still remaining focussed on telling a slower-burning, character based narrative. And they’ve made it one of the most interesting hours of television each week.
