Reply to comment by Westeros in 2022 was an great year for TV. I can easily recommend 25 quality TV shows/seasons by DJ_JibaJabba
Tokyo Vice isn't really a cop show, if that helps. The protagonist does interact with cops sometimes but it's not the main focus.

He’s made the joke that he’s being tricked into doing a talk show again (add cameras to the studio, do some tapings with a live audience)

The slow horses. Both the TV show and the books are fantastic. Also recommend the audiobook

It's just a stacked year in general. On the comedy side, we have the final seasons of comedy heavy hitters, Ted Lasso, Barry, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Atlanta. Plus, newcomers The Bear, Wednesday, and Poker Face, and the Disney owned returnees Only Murders in the Building, Abbott Elementary and What We Do In the Shadows.
On the drama side you have the final season of Succession, Better Call Saul, Yellowstone, with newcomers Andor, The Last of Us, House of the Dragon, and The White Lotus first time in drama.
It does seem right now like the table is pretty open for The Crown to run the table next year for its final season. But with so many huge shows ending, it's kind of an exciting turning of the tides for popular TV.
HBO will be fine, they still have new seasons of House of the Dragon, The White Lotus, Hacks, Euphoria, The Penguin, The Rehearsal , Winning Time, Curb, The Righteous Gemstones, Last Week Tonight, Harley Quinn, The White House Plumbers (as well as several other limited series) just in the next year alone, not to mention at least two other Thrones spinoffs, a Parasite adaptation, a Hellraiser series from Danny McBride and Jody Hill, a tv adaptation of multiple seasons of Serial, a miniseries based off of Kubrick's unmade Napoleon script, a horror series from Alfonso Cuaron, a vampire series based off of a popular book series from JJ Abrams and Issa Rae, a new Alec Berg show post Barry, an ISIS miniseries from Bradley Cooper and Todd Phillips, The Gotham PD show, the Green Lantern Corps show, the Themyscira show all in development for the next few years. HBO is doing just fine.

Its very much worth it, probably one of the best ongoing tv shows at the moment. Pachinko is also pretty solid. If you get a chance to sub for a month then for sure do it. Adam Scott is a treat!

If you want to plug Apple+ shows, why don’t you even mention Severance?

The problem is the NBA got paided a fuckton the last time they sold the tv license. They are gonna work to repeat that again with the rights being up in the next couple of years.
It's crazy to say but maybe Apple or Amazon will swoop in and save us from blackouts. I canceled my League Pass last month because it's annoying that I can't watch my home team and I remembered that it's useless during the playoffs.

I’m so sick of all the gambling shit in your face. I don’t care about odds or the money line or parlays. It’s so predatory, I just want to watch sports.

Absolutely. I think it’s not that’s he’s too busy to pursue the show but rather he wants to take his time an do something special since Team Coco is doing fine now.

I remember, back in the fall when Conan struck his deal with Sirius/XM, it was brought up in an interview. That was also when HBO Max started cancelling everything left and right. The interviewer asked if it had been cancelled, to which Conan said, "I haven't even put together my pitch yet. Can't cancel what hasn't been pitched."
But, based on the other comments here, looks like something is now being filmed.

The heat death of the universe will occur before that book is released. It was supposed to released nine years ago now.

Same. The only reason I'm sticking around is to see just how bad the show's conclusion is compared to the books.

You also need to see Ted Lasso, The Afterparty, Shrinking, Schmigadoon! and Black Bird. Oh and "The Greatest Beer Run in History" is a pretty great film.

The trailer for the Tom Cruise 'Jack Reacher' film got me to read the novels. I still can't believe how well it was adapted for Amazon, that first season is very close to the book. Even some of the stuff they added was from a different book.
