Top 10 TV Shows of 20167 of 10
4. "Westworld" (HBO)
In this sci-fi western thriller, based on Michael Crichton's 1973 film of the same name, HBO found a certifiable hit. The show, which focuses on a cutting-edge amusement park teeming with android "hosts" debuted to record-setting numbers -- it was the the network's most notable premiere since "True Detective" -- and continued to build momentum with critics, viewers, and commentators as the season rolled on. In fact, it's one of only two first-year shows on our list this year. The series also served up a slew of familiar faces in new and surprising roles: Luke Hemsworth, Evan Rachel Wood, Thandie Newton, James Marsden, Ed Harris, and Anthony Hopkins, to name a few.
