We Got This Covered’s Top 10 TV Shows Of 2016

Each and every year, television just gets better and better. At least, that's how it seems. With the rise of subscription-based streaming services like Netflix and bigger budgets being afforded to TV shows, we're seeing some truly tremendous work being done on the small screen. It used to be that A-list stars turned their nose up at the medium, but in 2016 we've seen talent like Sir Anthony Hopkins, Tom Hardy, Ed Harris, Kevin Spacey and many more all grace our screens.

8) Peaky Blinders

I wholeheartedly believe that Steven Knight’s Peaky Blinders is the best show you’re not watching right now. Based on the real-life exploits of the Peaky Blinders gang which operated out of Birmingham, England post-WWI, this BBC crime drama has subtly gained a devout following over its first three seasons, thanks in large part to a formidable cast that includes Cillian Murphy, Sam Neill, Annabelle Wallis and Tom Hardy, just to name a few of the heavyweights.

Delivering sex, drugs and violence in abundance, you’ll find it’s the idiosyncrasies of each character and their outlandish, headstrong, and in their own way unbreakable relationships with one another that are the most rewarding aspects of what’s sure to be your new obsession. Recently renewed for a fourth and fifth season simultaneously, once you’re past the show’s sluggish first couple of episodes, Peaky Blinders will have you aching for more of the Shelby clan and their tyrannical endeavors. Just make sure that wherever you choose to watch, the subtitle feature is an option.
