14 Glorious TV Butts We Beheld in 2016

There's one thing we know for sure about 2016: despite the fact that almost everything was a raging dumpster fire, at least we had good TV. This year yielded some truly stellar TV shows, and with that kind of quality, you can bet your ass there's going to be plenty of shirtlessness, more than a fair share of hot kissing scenes, and nudity. Yes, nudity! To celebrate the NSFW side of this year's hottest TV shows, we've rounded up a perky selection of butts that we simply couldn't help but appreciate.
