We talk a lot about performances here, so I thought this could be a fun companion to the topic wolfali made the other day. Instead of ranking shows, rank performances! Only criteria is that they must have aired an episode as that character in 2022.

I’ve limited myself to one performance per show, but you don’t have to. (Also, I think putting Nathan Fielder on this list is controversial considering The Rehearsal is a documentary of sorts, but I absolutely consider what he’s doing to be a performance in a way that a person in a normal documentary wouldn’t. If people think that’s unfair though I don’t mind replacing him.)

1. K. Devery Jacobs in Reservation Dogs

2. Rhea Seehorn in Better Call Saul

3. Danielle Deadwyler in Station Eleven

4. Nathan Fielder in The Rehearsal

5. Sheryl Lee Ralph in Abbott Elementary

6. Christina Ricci in Yellowjackets

7. Meghann Fahy in The White Lotus

8. Sam Reid in Interview with the Vampire

9. Margherita Mazzucco in My Brilliant Friend

10. Mo Amer in Mo
