What were the best movies of 2014? What 2014 TV shows should you catch up on? What were 2014's biggest songs? And why trust just one outlet for answers when you can try all of them?
Every December for years, Fimoculous' Rex Sorgatz used to keep a rolling list of year-end lists. He's not doing it anymore. But we will! Below, a semi-comprehensive list of year-end lists, updated at least daily. Send suggestions and additions to aleksander@gawker.com
