TV Show Themes and Color Palettes for 'ggplot2' Graphics.

tvthemes 1.3.1

Ryo Nakagawara | Twitter: @R_by_Ryo

The tvthemes package is a collection of various ggplot2 themes and color/fill palettes based on everybody’s favorite TV shows. What kick-started this whole package was my blogpost looking at simple TV stats on my current favorite TV show, Brooklyn Nine-Nine. I got a lot of good feedback on the colors I used for the custom ggplot2 theme and color palettes so I decided to expand it to other shows that I love! Suggestions and Pull Requests for palettes/themes are welcome!
