I'm a snob when it comes to tv, and openly admit it to family and friends. Before I commit to a show, I usually listen to or read a review from a few critics I respect; guys like Alan Sepinwall at Hitfix TV, Chris Ryan and Andy Greenwald over at the Watch Podcast or Matt Zoller Seitz at Vulture. I don't always agree with them, but our tastes are inline on most shows.
Here's my list of the 10 best shows airing on tv right now. This ever-evolving list is updated weekly on the Ventipop Lists Page.
