That was a review of the current season. The "Best Of" articles are all tagged with "best of," and you can find the complete list of links in the article in Newswire.

Because if a show airs just one episode, but it's one of the greatest episodes of all time, then shouldn't it be number one? We need to draw this line because of weird flukes like that. I loved the final season of 30 Rock, too, but the reason you're not seeing it on a lot of critics' lists for this very reason: Airing…

It is literally number one because it won a number of polls within our voting body, first placing in the top 15 in an overall survey, then handily defeating both Bob's and Breaking Bad in one-on-one matches.

As always, British stuff will make our list in the year it makes its American debut.

Even Mike White admits the fact that the ending was so perfect is probably why the show was canceled.

Bunheads was one of the very last shows we cut from the top 15. Alas.

It's playing a very, very long game. But I've always said if you don't have a smidgen of feeling for Amy after her final monologue in episode four (which reveals what the show is really up to to me), then it's probably not a show for you.

Really glad Phil and Kevin and Josh kept pushing this one. It really had a wonderful year.

We actually briefly talked about this season of The Killing, and if we had had an episodes list still, that would have made it, I'll bet.

The exact number is 7 or more than half of one's season, so… yes. (For instance, Treme only produced five episodes, but that was the entirety of its season, and it all aired in 2013.) It's a completely arbitrary distinction, but it's one we need to have.

I think just not enough people watched it. I really don't blame them either, because we got swamped with year-end screeners there in early November, and it naturally fell toward the bottom of the pile for a lot of people. But I hope it gets a season two and people discover it.

Kind of sort of, kind of sort of. But the other four series we singled out had to jump through far more hoops than it did, so I don't feel comfortable saying it would have landed there if we had subjected it to the same kind of voting process the other four were.

I honestly didn't think I was being snippy (nor did I intend to be), but I guess people are still a little raw about the whole thing.

We ran a bunch of Enlightened articles, but we never had an Enlightened Week.

Probably about the same. I don't really like New Disqus, but it hasn't appreciably decreased TV Club comments traffic.

We had a vote. If Breaking Bad had won it, it would have been number one.

There wasn't. We did an unranked list, then our top three shows of the year.

I have no doubt that it is confusing for some of you. Hell, that first week, it was confusing for me, and I work here. But the readership numbers do not suggest it is confusing for the vast majority of everybody. I'm not trying to be belligerent here.

Even if I thought that (and I don't), it's so not my decision.

That's because they weren't ranked.
