"Among the thousands of hours of television that came out this year, episodes of "Call My Agent," "For All Mankind," "Mythic Quest," "Pose" and "WandaVision," among others, stood out.
Television today comes in big portions, as anyone who spent seven-plus hours with the Beatles over Thanksgiving weekend can attest. But just as a marathon jam session can yield a few tight singles, the most memorable TV is still often the well-crafted individual episode. As Mike Hale, Margaret Lyons and I end another year's binge as TV critics for The New York Times, here are a few of the installments from 2021 that topped our personal hit parades."
