2023 was undoubtedly a bombshell year for television. From the widely anticipated premieres of shows like The Last of Us and The Boys spinoff Gen V to genre standouts like Foundation, The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Wheel of Time, to the series that had their swan song — pour one out for the Roys on Succession — we were spoiled for choice in terms of what to watch on the small screen. But last year was also a year of reckoning with the conditions under which most of these shows are made, and the fight to ensure that actors and writers are compensated fairly for their talents. Hopefully, now that we're officially in 2024, it'll also mean furthering these conversations about bettering the environment that creates some of our favorite series.
