SPOILER ALERT: This should go without saying -- consider the title of this list, for crying out loud! -- but if you're behind on a few of your favorite TV series, stop reading now.
On some series, death is a regular visitor. On others, it arrives so infrequently that the death of even a minor character comes as a shock. In any case, TV viewers know by now that the Grim Reaper can swing by to trim the cast of any series at any time, often without warning. At the time of this writing, at least 40 characters that we know of have journeyed into the mysterious beyond -- far too many to effectively discuss in a Year End list. Instead, here are the 10 most significant character deaths of the 2014, as well as a few runners-up for good measure. (If you'd like to peruse a more comprehensive list of character deaths, check out this one created by IMDb user dogdawgdogdawgdog.)

Here are the top 10 TV shows in production during 2014 that were most consistently popular with IMDb users.

It's a great time to love television. It's also a terrible time to love television, if you're tasked with narrowing all of the episodes you've seen over the last 365 days down to a Top 10 list. Can you remember every episode of television you watched? If you can, congratulations on your photographic memory.
But if you're like me, then you know that's a near-impossible task. Some outstanding hours and half-hours of television episodes simply aren't going to make this list. That doesn't mean they're not worthy; the more likely explanation is that I probably forgot about them. Or, just as likely, I probably haven't seen a few of them.
And remember, this is one person's admittedly too-short list of bests. It doesn't mean that any episodes not mentioned here aren't good or worth seeing; remember, everyone's idea of what is "best" is subjective.
Keep that in mind as you peruse my Top 10, presented in ascending order. Feel free to compile and share your own list of best episodes. - Melanie McFarland, TV Editor

Here's a challenge: Before watching Quentin Tarantino's epics Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and Kill Bill: Vol. 2, view as many of the the films and TV episodes that influenced the filmmaker's creation as you can. Here's a list to get you started, but it is by no means comprehensive. Please note: Nearly all of these titles are only available on DVD, so this binge will take a bit of prepping on your part. Good luck, and remember the advice of Hattori Hanzo:
"For those regarded as binge-viewers, when engaged in binging, the finishing of thine films and shows can be your only concern. Suppress all human emotion and compassion. Hang up on whoever calls or gets in thy way, even if that be Lord God or Buddha himself. This truth lies at the heart of the art of binging."

We may have reached the traditional television season's halfway point, but lots of new series haven't premiered yet. Among these upcoming series debuts are a few destined to have a place on several "Best of 2014" lists at year's end. Others will become guilty pleasures, while some may go as quickly and quietly as they arrive.
The shows listed here fall into all of these categories, and while I can't guarantee all (or any) of them will earn huge ratings or critical acclaim, I am intrigued enough by what I've seen of them to put them on my Watchlist for at least a few episodes.

Undeniably the biggest success story of the 2013-2014 TV season's freshman class, NBC's "The Blacklist" started out ferociously fast-paced and strong, and consistently raised the stakes as the story moved along. Over the course of season one, it became one of the few shows that fans didn't want to fall behind on; conspiracies grew more tangled as the secrets surrounding Raymond Reddington's true agenda began to reveal themselves.
But that's not the only aspect of this show that inspired us to watch each new episode as soon as it premiered. Here are a few of the reasons we can't get enough of it.
