Top 22 New Shows of 2022: #7

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. It’s always nice to check in midway through the television season to reflect back on all the calendar year introduced us to. As 2022 closes out and 2023 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#7: Minx

This fictionalized show about the creation of the first erotic magazine for women was a lot of fun, but it also went deeper than that, navigating the rampant sexism present in the business and other challenges that got in the way of true unchecked productivity. Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson were also a fantastic duo supported by a great cast. Unfortunately, you can’t watch this one on HBO Max because the streaming service pulled it, but season two is finished and hopefully both seasons will be available somewhere else soon. In the meantime, check out my interviews with the cast and creator.
