Yahoo! TV Blogs

We love TV. You have to when you watch as much of it as we do. And one of the side effects of viewing an unhealthy amount of TV is you become evangelical about anything that stands out from the mind-numbing masses. So pardon us a moment while we get back up on our soapbox to reflect on the shows that impressed us most this year. We believe from the bottom of our hearts to the tips of our remote controls that if you give these TV treats a taste, you'll soon be hungry for more. (And if you disagree, tweet us at @YahooTV and let us know what's missing from our list!)

It's quite a task to choose the craziest moments from the freshman season of FX's "American Horror Story"; this show has been nothing but crazy moments! But we managed to narrow down the highlights of one of the wildest TV seasons we can remember. Just in time for this week's sure-to-be-insane season finale, we're looking back at the creepiest, freakiest, most unforgettable moments of "Horror Story's" first season. (Beware: Many spoilers lurk below.)

You Want Brains With That?
As Vivien's demon seed grew rapidly within her womb, Moira insisted on cooking her some truly disgusting foods to help with the pregnancy. At first, Vivien turned down the maid's fried sweetbreads, but the mom-to-be eventually gave in and chowed down on some cow brains. Like, an entire raw cow's brain. She seemed to enjoy it (she ate up every morsel), but we're still going to leave that dish off our holiday menus.

As the holiday season approaches, we naturally want to celebrate all the great TV shows we've enjoyed this year. But we also can't let the year end without calling the networks to task for some truly awful programming. It's a dirty job, but we're rolling up our sleeves and digging up the ten very worst shows to trudge their way across our flat-screens this year.

First, some dishonorable mentions: "Man Up!" (beware of any show that tries to distract you with unnecessary punctuation); "Famous Food" (we don't want Heidi Montag touching our food, thank you very much); "Last Man Standing" (if they just re-ran old "Home Improvement" episodes instead, do you think anyone would notice?); "The World According to Paris" (we want to thank the American public for rejecting this show and hopefully making Paris Hilton go away forever).

The Chelsea Handler empire continues to expand: The potty-mouthed comedienne has now paired her hit E! talk show with "After Lately," a mockumentary-style comedy that goes behind the scenes with her and her "Chelsea Lately" co-stars. And with Season 2 of "After Lately" in full swing (Sundays at 11pm on E!), you can keep the laughs going off the air as well by entering this week's Yahoo! TV giveaway; we're handing out five copies of Handler's latest bestselling book, "Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang."

"Bang Bang" collects Handler's hilarious essays on everything from her childhood to the perils of fame. She tells of writing a school report on Reaganomics in order to earn a Cabbage Patch Kids doll, playing an epic prank on her boyfriend that involved a fake autopsy, and adopting her adorable dog, Chunk (who shares the book's cover with her).
