Early this week, following the batshit season finale of The White Lotus—which, yes, is absolutely on this list—Esquire's editors convened to deem the best 10 TV series of the year. You should know: It wasn't easy. 2022 was the year Ozark made its big Netflix return, Amazon offered us a beautiful look into the lives of three young adults on the autism spectrum, and ABC (yes, A-B-C, the network) turned out the best comedy of the year. Apple TV+ also muscled its way into the streaming game with two of the year's biggest hits, Pachinko and Severance. But not all of them made our final cut. That's showbiz.
Without further ado, folks: Here are Esquire's 10 best TV shows of 2022.Watch Next
