A Bonus List: Best of the Blog (2019)

Welcome to a new Wildcard Wednesday — and Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! Before we dive back into the fabulous ’50s, I want to honor our recent work by giving you one extra list — a selection of my 65 favorite episodes that we’ve covered here on Sitcom Tuesdays over the course of 2019. Why 65? Well, 60 was too few and 70 was too many. (Also, note that because the eighth and final season of Will & Grace is yet to be featured, I’ve decided to exclude its contents from contention for this list and instead consider the final Sitcom Tuesday post of 2018 — the first season of Just Shoot Me!) Let this be a resource to those who wonder what I think the ultimate showings are from the five long-running series we looked at this year: Just Shoot Me!, Everybody Loves Raymond, The King Of Queens, That ’70s Show, and Will & Grace.
