"TV in the streaming era is an endless feast. This year, series like "Barry," "Ms. Marvel," "Pachinko," "Station Eleven" and "This Fool" offered some of the best bites.
TV can be a lot of different things these days. So can a TV episode: It can be a "chapter" of a visual novel, a revelatory stand-up special or a straight-up sitcom installment.
You'll find all of those and more in our choices of some of the best individual pieces we've sampled this year. Television in 2022 may have been all about the binge, but sometimes what you remember most about a feast is simply that one perfect bite.
