tv journal 2019 - december

i've been logging the movies i've watched on listal every day since 2012, so i have no idea why it didn't occur to me sooner to start sharing the shows i watch and love, as i watch and love them. whether i'm seeing them for the first time, binge-watching, tuning in weekly or diving into reruns, i thought it would be fun to answer to the best of my ability the age-old question: what does a 20something gay man from england watch on tv?

i love reality tv but for your sake i'm only including scripted, narrative series; so no "entertainment" shows or documentaries either.
