Top 20 New Shows of 2012: #15

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 2012 closes out and 2013 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#15: Apartment 23
This show, whose longer title can’t actually be uttered on its network, ABC, is a screwball comedy delightfully detached from reality. Dreama Walker and Krysten Ritter complement each other perfectly as odd couple roommates, and James Van Der Beek is entertaining as a washed-up version of himself. It’s nutty and immensely watchable.

Best Episode: “Parent Trap”
