Hate year-end pop culture same-old lists.

Here’s another one! The 2011 Janies:

-Beyonce, 4: best.
-Billy on the Street: best 2011 show that hasn’t premiered yet
-Blood, Bones & Butter: best non-Bossypants memoir
-Bossypants: best.
-Bridesmaids: best vehicle for us all to fall in love with Melissa McCarthy
-Britney Spears, Femme Fatale: best album that let us breathe a sigh of relief for Britney
-Celebrity Apprentice casting: best in show
-DWTS casting: best stepping it up
-Gabrielle Giffords: best lady
-Happy Endings: best non-30-Rock sitcom
-Kelly Clarkson, Stronger: best non-beyonce album.
-Oprah’s Lifeclass: best everything that changed my life and will remain important forever
-Season 25 Behind the Scenes: best reality show
-Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: best embodiment of what Real Housewives franchise is about

Unless I’m forgetting something, I think it was a really bad year for documentaries and there were no new additions to SNL so that’s my list. Also not a lot of great memoirs. Ebert’s was fine. Honorable mention: Louie

Conclusion: lots of things that start with the letter B
