There's an inherent problem with the standard "Best of" year-in-review list: Most of the stuff they highlight are things you already know about. Yes, it might be nice to get a definitive ruling from critics that, yes, Breaking Bad is in fact better than Game of Thrones, but it's not going to do anything for you. You don't need any more people telling you to listen to Yeezus (If you won't listen to Lou Reed, you're probably beyond reason.) You already know about this year's Oscar contenders.

So here are few amazing things that came out of 2013. They are not the most profound, nor are they incredibly obscure. In fact, these shows/movies/games are best categorized as overlooked. Maybe they popped up on your pop culture radar. Maybe you even heard they were good, but you never got around to checking them out. You should make sure you should get back to these before they get lost with the rest of last year's news.
