From a hugely entertaining skewering of privilege to a wonderful series that should have been made 40 years ago, here are the shows that made your year

This seemed to fly under everyone’s radar but my husband and I absolutely loved it. It starts out with an (unhappily) married couple celebrating their anniversary at a resort in Mexico. Something in the past has caused their emotional detachment to each other, but we’re given no explanation at first. Then the show starts to transcend genre as the couple become involved in the mysterious disappearance of two teenagers 10 years previously. There is comedy, mystery, mysticism, slapstick, a hurricane and a barnstorming performance by Luis Gerardo Méndez as the wannabe detective Baltasar Frias. We also maybe see time travel. We felt like we went on holiday watching it. Erin Mallory, 41, Worthing
