The Best TV Shows of the Decade
To say the TV landscape has changed in the past decade is the understatement of a lifetime. With the boom of streaming services and rise of quote/unquote Peak TV, there are literally more TV series being released in 2019 than there are days this year.
But looking back at the last 10 years, it’s easy to see why: The medium of television is delivering some of its best content ever, even rivaling film in terms of quality and execution.
So your friendly neighborhood IGN entertainment team took on the daunting task of narrowing down what we consider to be the best 100 TV shows of the past 10 years. But a few things to keep in mind before we begin: This is not a ranked list, but rather just the 100 TV shows we thought were the best of the decade. As such, we've listed the shows by year, and then by alphabetical order within each year. That said, please be sure to let us know what you think of our picks, and what faves of yours didn't make our list!

The Best Movies of the Decade
And just like that, we're entering a new decade, and one that will hopefully bring us many great movies. But let us not forget the 2010s, and all the excellent films that were made over the past 10 years. Masterpieces from iconic filmmakers, surprise amazing debuts from new talent, superhero sagas that transcended the form, horror films that continue to freak us out, the return of dystopian heroes after a 30-year break... we've had it all.
IGN's entertainment team got together and put together the following list of the best movies of the decade after much deliberation, lots of killing of darlings, and more than one Slack debate. We hope you enjoy reading this list as much as we enjoyed putting it together, and when you're done here, why not go watch a few of these classic flicks too?

NASA’s New Black Hole Simulation Mimics How Gravity Warps Light
Earlier this year, astronomers revealed the first real-life picture of a black hole. A few months ago, NASA also shared computer simulations that further detail how "a black hole warps spacetime like a funhouse mirror - and how that affects the appearance of its glowing accretion disk of infalling material."
As reported by ScienceNews.org, the black hole located in the M87 galaxy's first photo was an incredible albeit blurry and still image. These new computer simulations show so much more detail, including how the black hole's "superstrong gravity bends light emanating from gas in the disk behind the black hole so that the disk’s far side seems to split into arcs above and below the abyss."

The Best Games of the Decade (2010 – 2019)
Spanning two console generations and thousands of game releases, the twenty-teens have been incredible for both game developers and their fans alike. While we thought about putting together a definitive ranking of the best games that came out between 2010 and the end of 2019, it quickly became apparent that there were way too many awesome games to crown just one as the decade’s best.
To that end, here are - with no particular ranking - our favorite games of the last ten years.

Disney CEO Says Disney+ Star Wars Shows Could Become Movies
Disney CEO Bob Iger recently spoke about the benefits of Disney+ as a storytelling platform, particularly when it comes to expanding and broadening the Star Wars universe. On a recent episode of The Star Wars Show (as noticed by Slashfilm), Iger said that fluidity between TV and movies could allow for easy crossovers - with a Disney+ show, like The Mandalorian, possibly getting a movie.
"I don’t look at it as just television, I look at it as an extension of Star Wars storytelling." Iger said. "What Disney+ has given us the ability to do is to do just that, is to bring Star Wars to people in new ways, and to bring new Star Wars to people. It’s not the same places or the same characters. Just look at Mandalorian. While, obviously, there’s a lot shared, there’s a lot that’s really fresh, and I love that."
