Top 16 New Shows of 2016: #8

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. It’s always nice to reflect midway through the television season to reflect back on all the calendar year introduced us to. As 2016 closes out and 2017 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#8: People of Earth

TBS is killing it this year with three new comedies that are all totally different from each other. This one is my favorite, and I never expected that a show about a support group for alien abductees (they prefer the term “experiencers”) would be one of the shows I most looked forward to watching each week. A great cast and a wonderful sweetness to balance its clever if not always mature humor makes this show an all-around winner.
