Top 19 New Shows of 2019: #3

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. It’s always nice to check inn midway through the television season to reflect back on all the calendar year introduced us to. As 2019 closes out and 2020 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#3: Doom Patrol

Superhero shows are so common these days that this could have easily been dismissed as just another entry in a never-ending sea of the same. But this DC Universe series presented antiheroes who couldn’t control their mostly unhelpful powers and then repeatedly ripped apart their realities so that they could never quite be clear on what was real. It’s a mind-bending experience to watch this admittedly quite weird show, and one that will fortunately continue when it returns for a second season.
