I know you half-apologized for not being able to cover everything out there, but for me at least, the next few months are LOADED with all the shows I'm looking forward to most. Special props to Zack for falling on that photon grenade one last time.
On a more personal note, I can join so many others in noting the AV Club's importance in my life. I liked plenty of TV and movies over the years, but I never thought about it that deeply until I got WRECKED by a buddy discussing The Last Jedi. I decided that would not happen to me again, so I dove into Film Crit Hulk and the AV Club - even old shows I had finished a decade before - to understand the art and science of filmmaking. It's probably debatable how successful I was, and I don't NEED the AV Club to exist. I'm just glad all the brilliant writers and thinkers from that site have a place to inspire the next generation to think about the visual arts a little more deeply.
That's also true of the community you spoke of. I've finally trained myself to read the comments on this site because they are always so thoughtful, articulate, and made in good faith. That particular list of comment sections is a damn short one...
