kinda bummed no one else has rectify on their list, but i get it.
it's not an easy thing to reccomend
I just honestly haven’t watched it
I plan on it! But, That’s the case for most (almost all?) of the shows not on my list, I’ve either seen nothing or only a handful of episodes. Even Bobs Burgers I’ve only seen the first two seasons of and need to catch up on a lot
no lie, i think the most joy i had watching tv week to week was during that run of terriers
I currently have That Feeling. That, "Oh, I guess this is all I'm gonna be thinking about this week" feeling, that, "So THIS is what 'appointment television' feels like" feeling, with Watchmen. But it's the first time I've had That Feeling since Terriers.
Also no particular order, but my ten favorites of the past decade:
Terriers
Atlanta
Lodge 49
Fleabag
Justified
The Americans
The Young Pope
Barry
Succession
Halt & Catch Fire (someday I may even watch season 1)
Honorable mentions to Party Down (which misses out because its first season was in 2009) and Watchmen, which will almost certainly make the list but I'm not counting anything that hasn't at least finished a season yet.

I was talking about the best shows of the decade with a buddy, and we started talking about the best lines from any of these shows, and I narrowed it down to my 3 favorite lines of dialogue from the 2010s:
3) Justified: "Next one's coming faster."
Tied for 1) Halt & Catch Fire: "Most of us in the human race, we don't get to know what comes next. We just feel shit as it's thrown at us."
"I get a little lightheaded sometimes if I shit real big."
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust

That's mostly cribbed from y'all's lists, so I'm assuredly missing something weird that only I watched
Honorable mentions to The Last Man on Earth, Gravity Falls, and What We Do In The Shadows.
American Vandal is reeeeeal close to being on my top 10. The care and attention that went into something so dumb is 100% up my alley. And kayfabe setup for season 2 is my favorite thing ever.

I'm not seeing True Detective or Jessica Jones on many of these lists, so are these shows I've never heard of actually good or are y'all just forgetting?

They are generally both regarded as having a great s1 and an awful s2.

I've never seen Jessica Jones
True Detective season 2 is legitimately one of the worst TV seasons I've ever watched start to finish

JJ season 2 was well regarded with some minor character issues
I guess the 82% RT score was higher than I'd expect, but still a big drop from 94 for s1. I mostly hated it (and think s1 is tremrndous), but probably should give S3 a shot since I watched all the other Netflix Marvel stuff.
I thought JJ S2 was mostly just okay, the main storylines just weren't that interesting. Also I was still pissed off that I watched The Defenders instead of doing literally anything else.

we should rewatch it
Shit! You're right! Remove Fringe and add Bob's Burgers.

But man, those 3 episodes
::Martin eyeroll:: "Jesus wept."
Cue laugh track.
I’m only in season 2, but I think Letterkenny needs to be on my list

There’s a Lot of TV
Steam
Pitter patter.
Hannibal
The Good Place
Over the Garden Wall
Person of Interest
Bob’s Burgers
The Great British Bake-Off
The Fall
Actually that’s about it, there’s a ton I haven’t watched and anything else hasn’t registered enough for me to remember/care about
Barry might be on there except Mori and I both find it a very anxiety-inducing show
(Also it’s anime but Mob Psycho 100 absolutely deserves a place on the list)
I think Letterkenny juuuuuust misses my top ten
By the milk-light of moon
All that was lost is revealed
Our long bygone burdens
Mere echoes of the spring
But where have we come
And where shall we end
If dreams can't come true
Then why not pretend
How the gentle wind
Echoes through the leaves
As autumn colours fall
Dancing in a swirl
Of golden memories
The loveliest...lies...of all...

Is a decade ending?
Is next year 2020?
Fuck I guess it is
Who stole my year
Put that at number 2 for me and we should be good.
preacher i guess
Terriers!
Terriers!!!!
