TV Moments of 2013: The Americans
ITV doesn't have great track record with US TV series, The Americans was much more suited to the Channel 4 Sunday 9pm slot that Homeland and The Returned thrived in as opposed to following Britain's Got Talent on a Saturday. It's nice to hear that ITV are going to keep the faith with the second series of this Cold War thriller in 2014.
TV Moments of 2013: Brain Hospital - Saving Lives
Channel 5 documentaries are normally gory or gaudy - though Jay Hunt at Channel 4 seems determined to give them a run for their money in those stakes. Brain Hospital was the exception to the rule, a sad and touching look at the work of those at the Walton Centre neurology hospital in Liverpool.
TV Moments of 2013: Catfish - The TV Show
Two series in, Catfish the TV series still manages to shock you with the twists in the stories of online love. It's a guilty but addictive pleasure of TV in 2013.
TV Moments of 2013: David Bowie - 5 Years
It's hard to believe, but somehow the star of this David Bowie documentary ends up being Robert Fripp and his increasingly mental anecdotes - not Bowie himself.
TV Moments of 2013: Game of Thrones Season 3
The most epic season so far of the most epic show on television, The Red Wedding took things to entirely different level.
TV Moments of 2013: Hannibal
Hannibal is the most beautiful show to look at on TV at the moment. Mads Mikkelsen and his cheekbones command every shot he's in but Hugh Dancy's portrayal of a man falling apart at the seams is the real show-stealer.
TV Moments of 2013: Luther
The slithering serial killer under the bed from the likely to be last series of Luther still gives me the creeps
TV Moments of 2013: Regular Show
Adventure Time seems to be everywhere these days, but the other half of Cartoon Network's double bill of kid's shows that aren't really for kids is my favourite.
TV Moments of 2013: The Returned (Les Revenants)
The end of the first series was worryingly Lost-esque, but the haunting atmosphere and incredible soundtrack by Mogwai were amongst the things that made The Returned not only the best Zombie show, but also one of the best TV Programmes of 2013.
