The end of 2022 brings with it the end of a truly stellar year for television, both new and returning shows. Each must-watch series has brought with it must-watch episodes, and we've compiled our 20 absolute favorites for you here.
The episodes on this list capture the versatile spread of TV this year, from lavish vampire masquerade balls to tense highway motorcycle chases. They will make you laugh, cry, and, in one case, potentially throw up.
Most importantly, they'll suck you into a dizzying array of new worlds, including a horrifying sci-fi prison, a cramped restaurant kitchen, and a surprisingly musical high school reunion. The saying "there's something for everyone" has never applied more.
Here, from newest episode to oldest, are Mashable's 20 Best TV Episodes of 2022.
