Top Ten TV Shows of 2014 According to the TBL Staff
The end of the year approaches! Thus all websites are required to count down various things. One of those various things is television! We here at The Big Lead often watch television in between sporting events. Some of us watch more than others. Some of us watch with our children. Some of us watch in dimly lit rooms. Some of us mostly read.
So keep that in mind as you look at the non-consensus TBL Top Ten TV Shows of 2014. We have compiled everyone’s individual top 10 lists, did some simple addition and found some YouTube clips. Some people were only able to come up with a handful of shows they would admit to watching. Some people appear to never have control of their own remote controls. Before we get to the top 10, here are the shows that people mentioned that didn’t make the cut.
