2. BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman may not be the Netflix series that gets the most attention - it's not really mainstream enough for that, sadly - but after five seasons it has absolutely earned the distinction of being called the best Netflix Original Series going.

There's no other show on Netflix - or TV as a whole, really - that manages to so easily and beautifully combine laugh-out-loud comedy with punched-in-the-stomach emotion. It's not just that it does this, but the many ways it does - from insane visual gags to incredible puns; shocking character deaths to taking its titular figure to the darkest places imaginable - without losing a handle on its great narrative or wide cast of characters.

Constantly surprising and ridiculously clever, Season 6 is in a position to shake up the storytelling once again, and even tell a tale laced with more hope than ever before (and thus, a greater chance of despair too). Watching how they pull it off - because they will pull it off - should be one of the TV highlights of 2019.
