If we're going year to year, Jessica Jones wins just about everything.

For just 2016, Thrones and Venture Bros have been the best.

Oh, and it will never happen because it isn't high profile, but Aya Cash gave one of the best performances of anyone on TV this season on "You're The Worst" and deserves an Emmy nomination.

Oh, is The Girlfriend Experience not going to return for another season? Shame. The first season plays well as a self-contained story, but I would enjoy more nonetheless.

Starz seemed to set it and Flesh and Bone adrift in a bit of a small-audience netherworld when both could have capitalized on the upscale female viewership they have garnered with Outlander.

It's a limited series, from what I understand if it returns it would follow another character and be a different storyline entirely.
