Nashville
The story of a veteran country singer battling egos with a younger counterpart is really just a vehicle for stars Connie Britton and Hayden Panettiere to display some epic b*tch faces and one-liners. And the music! The music on the show is crazy catchy.
The New Normal
Glee creator Ryan Murphy struck gold again with this show, the story of a gay couple getting to know their surrogate mother. Post Will & Grace, the show has been groundbreaking in its portrayal of a gay couple's (occasionally insane) domestic life.

This show, released exclusively on Netflix, was the first of its kind and signals a bit of a TV revolution. Netflix allowed viewers to stream all 13 episodes of the first season at once, allowing people to binge on polticial scheming all at once. Kevin Spacey is the king of the scary creeps (and this is the highest of compliments).
The Mindy Project
Mindy Kaling, please be my best friend. The best writer on The Office (okay, in my humble opinion) finally broke out this year with her own show, which she writes and stars in. Mindy's alter ego, Dr. Mindy Lahiri, makes you laugh with horror or recognition, and is involved in the year's best new will-they-won't-they with Danny Castellano.
The Americans
Things that are generally awesome: spies. Shows set in the 1980s. Prolific use of wigs. Keri Russell. All of these items come together on FX's new show The Americans, which is the story of a pair of Soviet spies pretending to be a normal American married couple circa 1981.
