Entertainment enjoyed this year: Character
Every book or movie I loved this year had great characters, cause I don't enjoy something otherwise. But these were the ones where character was the top consideration, over humor, romance, etc.
Beginners Charming tale of a young man, and his father's new lease on life as a gay man.
Bran Nue Day A musical about an Australian Aboriginal kid running away from school. Quite silly and fun.
Special Exits A memoir about the author's father and step-mother. A sweet, touching portrait of aging.
Jeeves and Wooster I rewatch some of this every year. Cheers me.
Michael Tuesdays & Thursdays One of those brilliant little shows that didn't get its audience. Sweet, funny relationship between a therapist and anxiety patient.
Page by Paige Beautifully illustrated graphic novel for teens, about an artist moving to a new city.
The Pursuit of Love Mitford's first memoir about her nutty cousins.
The Miracle Worker One of those movies I'll watch anytime it's on. So funny.
Sherlock I wasn't as blown away with this as everyone else, but still an excellent series.
The Voice Season 2 A better talent show than Idol, but also a much more entertaining judging panel, with heroes, villains and conflict.

I don't know all of these but love J&W, enjoyed Sherlock the few times I watched, and sat glued to the telly every Monday and Tuesday for The Voice. Sad it's over. : (
I like J&W - probably discovered it on your blog.
I've seen Sherlock in the que and wondered if it was good. I might have to give it a go.
@Robena - I didn't watch this latest season... I have trouble keeping up with reality shows that are on more than once per year. But I'll have to try Am idol just for the judges...
@Judie - It's by the same Dr Who writer whom everyone's been raving about, from the past few seasons. It's well done. Sherlock's an asshole, Watson is funny. As should be. ;-)
