TV has been more important than ever in 2020. Whether it was an obsession with Connell and Marianne in Normal People or pure disbelief at Tiger King, there’s no doubt that TV has helped us all feel more connected to each other over the past year.

Take a look at what made the top fifteen, and find out how you can catch up.
