TV.com's Top 100 Everything of 2009: 100-91

Here at TV.com, we take our year-end list-making very seriously. So as another year comes to a close, we present to you our second annual TV.com Top 100, the massive 10-part list of the year's most awesome TV happenings. As always, there were huge, mind-blowing events and tiny, heart-wrenching moments. Phenomenal send-offs and welcome hellos. Incredibly well-written plots and some really great, totally-not-annoying characters. After 365 days of watching TV, here's what we loved the most.

We're posting 10 items each weekday through January 1, so check back often to see what made the cut!

100. Vincent Chase's return to fame on Entourage

Vincent Chase was once a big-shot movie star—until he ended up on the bottom of the Hollywood totem pole. But this season, with the help of his Agent Ari and Lloyd, Vinny and the boys are back on top.

99. The ridiculously good-looking cast and historical accuracy of The Tudors

Where was this show when we were dying in high school history?

98. Craig Ferguson's 1,000th show

Complete with puppets and musical numbers!

97. The way everything always works out on CSI

It's reassuring when we're feeling anxious.

96. Archie Punjabi on The Good Wife

So competent. So deliciously cynical.

95. Tina Fey's hair on 30 Rock

It's so... normal. Does she do her hair and makeup herself?

94. Ronnie getting evicted on Big Brother

Booyakasha! The square root of all evil totally deserved it.


93. Walter Bishop's smoothie obsession on Fringe

It's a cute quirk, don't you think?


92. The campy "men" chorus that accompanies every scene change on Two and a Half Men

It's not new, but it still cracks us up every time.

91. NBC risking its hide with the under-appreciated Kings

Sure the results weren't what we hoped they would be (time slot switches galore, no love from the public, an unceremonious cancellation), but we loved NBC's willingness to take a chance on this very different and engaging series. Too bad the network must have lost millions and won't be doing it again.

    3 things stand out.... CSI is absolutely awesome...no doubt. Walter Bishop on Fringe too good and Archie Punjabi on The Good Wife.... I lack the words coz marvelous seems like an understatement

    okay... Tina Fey's adoration notwithstanding, I don't give a hoot about anything on this page... except the wonderfully delicious Archie... but man it's PanjAbi... you guys should correct that. And if you like her (as you should), where's the love? Where's the coverage? please get us some Archie!

    Yeah...the Tina Fey thing seemed a little weird to put on there. There's nothing about her hair that deserves recognition.

    91-100: I do appreciate NBC's willingness to air Kings. It was really enjoyable & if not for the cost of the show, I'm surprised it didn't at all move over o something like SyFy.

    I was totally in love with Kings, and I was hoping against hope that somebody else would pick it up.Kudos to NBC for airing the series, but I hold them accountable for mishandling the show from the start.

  • joenamherst

    HEY! Shouldn't these top 100 everything ONLY include shows that 'we the people' watch? How can you include anything from ther UNFUNNY, UNWATCHED 30rock? Wait a minute! Maybe I'm mistaken.....Tina Fays hair is funny!

    It's been a while since I last watched CSI, but, yes, everything ends ok. Except for Jorja Fox. I love Jorja Fox.On that love note, Tina Fey is wonderful. Hair, glasses, voice, mind... I love the whole package.Two and a Half Men used to be cute. Still is, in a dirty kind of way; but it's seen better days.The Tudors are on my watchlist. Historical accuracy, you say?

    Loved Kings, sure wish NBC had not dropped the ball on this one. Ian McShane is amazing. He belongs back on HBO. Game of Thrones perhaps?

    Yeah Liz Lemon is very normal so what? I think she's one of the most human characters on the TV nowadays.

    Haha, im glad I'm not the only one who loves Walter's obsession with smoothies on Fringe. He was obsessed with root beer floats for awhile too

  • jjab73

    Hmm.. I haven't watched a single show mentioned so far....but at least there are 90 other spots to go.

  • xixamadeira

    NBC SUCKS they totally screwed up Kings, any other network would have made it a hit. I hate NBC with passion I don't watch anything on it.

  • PopsicalStyks

    I'm glad to see Craig Ferguson finally getting some of the recognition he deserves, although I still would've liked to see him higher up on the list.

    Dec 22, 2009
  • Starprincess13

    I like your CSI and Two and a Half Men items.

    Dec 22, 2009

  • KingofIPirates

    Not a very good list, only three selections that really deserve to be up there

    Dec 22, 2009
  • Shikady

    I have a request. Could you upload the videos in a server without restriction of country please?

    Walter is awesome.
