Top 20 New Shows of 2010: #7

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. But this year, during both the spring and the fall, produced many impressive new television series. As 2010 closes out and 2011 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#7: Parenthood
Peter Krause has found himself a new family drama decently worthy as follow-up to “Six Feet Under,” and he’s surrounded by a fantastic cast, including Mae Whitman, Lauren Graham, Erika Christensen, and Dax Shepard. Complex, believable, relatable storylines and strong writing can be found on this funny, often very light dramedy, and such a large cast affords the story almost infinite directions to explore.

Best Episode: Pilot
