  1. Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent: Season 1
    Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent is pretty much what you expect from any entry in the L&O franchise, which is a good thing.
  2. From Cradle to Stage: Season 1
    From Cradle To Stage gives viewers a great look at how their favorite music stars became so driven to succeed in what is an impossible business, and the moms who helped make them that way.
  3. Perry Mason: Season 1
    Matthew Rhys’ powerful performance is the main reason to watch this reboot of Perry Mason, but the mystery is intriguing enough to justify watching all of the show’s fine performances.

    Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun: Season 1
    With its vibrant and unique art style, engaging psychological drama, and compelling main character, Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun could very well be a hidden gem of Prime Video’s spring programming slate. Give it a chance.
  5. Lord of the Flies
    Jack Thorne has managed to make the series adaptation of Lord Of The Flies fresh by giving viewers as close to a visceral experience of being in the middle of the chaos as possible, with good performances by the actors playing the main characters.
  6. The Mosquito Coast: Season 1
    A fine lead performance from Justin Theroux, in addition to a story that’s been rejiggered just enough to make it more modern than its source material gives this new version of The Mosquito Coast a real chance to be the next talked-about series.
  7. The Last Dance: Season 1
    The access that the filmmakers have gotten makes this series all the more fascinating to watch.
  8. Eric Andre: Legalize Everything
    It made me laugh. And that kind of involuntary giggle that you can’t help, it’s just your body’s way of reacting, not a polite, calculated chuckle at any point. It’s not light, easy viewing by any means, but this chaotic special is a respite from the other kind of chaos that is 2020 and anything that provides a laugh these days is worth watching.
  9. Shaq: Season 1
    Short of Michael Jordan, there’s no figure in basketball history quite as compelling as Shaquille O’Neal, and SHAQ is a worthy documentary treatment of the man, myth and legend.
  10. Aunty Donna's Big Ol' House of Fun: Season 1
    This is the time to embrace absurdity and silliness, and the six episodes will fly by in under two hours. When the world feels upside down, leave it to three men from Down Under to make you feel right again.
  11. How to Create a Sex Scandal: Season 1
    A three-part docuseries, How To Create A Sex Scandal turns the tables on what a true crime documentary typically is.
  12. Magic City: An American Fantasy
    Magic City: An American Fantasy is a fun look at a club that was integral to making Atlanta one of the country’s most desirable and diverse cities.
  13. The New York Times Presents: Framing Britney Spears
    This doc can and should inspire many important conversations across the legal, music, and media industries. Framing Britney Spears is entertaining to watch, but even more than that, it is shocking and hopefully motivating.
  14. Love, Death & Robots: Season 4
    Volume 4 of Love, Death & Robots again makes tremendous use of its anthology form, allowing space for left-field thematic choices and story adaptations, a rich palette of animation styles, and a streak of mischievousness that keeps the whole thing consistently interesting.

    High School: Season 1
    Whether you’re a fan of Tegan and Sara or looking for a queer, playfully nostalgic teen series, High School’s endearing, admirably restrained take on the genre is worth an afternoon of your time. More 30-minute dramas, please!
  16. The Big Door Prize: Season 2
    The Big Door Prize works because it allows us to spend time with a group of appealing characters that have become a “found family” as they try to figure out just what they want to get out of their lives. That vibe continues in Season 2.
  17. Alex Rider: Season 1
    Alex Rider is definitely an above average entry in TV’s spy genre; it takes its main character seriously and develops him enough that we can actually believe he’ll do a good job as an agent. That’s saying a lot.
  18. Rainn Wilson and the Geography of Bliss: Season 1
    Rainn Wilson And The Geography Of Bliss is aided by Wilson’s history, genial grumpiness and what seems like a true desire to figure out what makes people happy.
  19. The Other Black Girl: Season 1
    The Other Black Girl definitely takes a different approach to demonstrating systemic racism, and combined with the fine performances from Daniel, Murray, Young and others, makes for a show that definitely kept us engaged.
  20. Paradise (2025): Season 2
    The thought-provoking new direction will challenge, confuse, and likely divide viewers, but it will also deepen the show’s sci-fi roots and evoke more comparisons to Silo Season 2, LOST, and The Last of Us than ever before.
  21. Cruel Summer: Season 2
    The talented cast, clever mystery, and ’90s nostalgia are a winning combination. For these summer girls, 1999 might be cruel, but for the rest of us, the show is the perfect summer escape.
  22. Gossip Girl (2021): Season 2
    In its second season, Gossip Girl has morphed into exactly what you want from a reboot. The costumes and directorial work are more refined and swoon-worthy than the original, and even though the drama is new, it feels familiar. There is a real sense that this is a new chapter in a beloved story.
  23. STEVE! (martin) a documentary in 2 pieces: Season 1
    If you don’t consider yourself the biggest Steve Martin fan or you need a refresher course on how he became the most popular comedian of the late 1970s, then by all means STREAM IT to the first episode, but everyone should make sure to watch the second part, which provides a much richer, fuller portrait of the comedian, actor, playwright, art collector, and in his later years, husband, father and comedy partner.
  24. Legends of the Hidden Temple (2021): Season 1
    If you were a fan of the original Legends Of The Hidden Temple, this reboot will bring back fond memories. But even if you weren’t (we were adults when the show came out), it’s still a light, fun watch that leans completely into its goofiness.
  25. Cult Massacre: One Day in Jonestown: Season 1
    While you may know the story of the Jonestown massacre, Cult Massacre: One Day In Jonestown brings it to life in a new way, with lots of vivid recollections by people who were there.
  26. The Muppets Mayhem: Season 1
    The Muppets Mayhem is a funny, fast-paced show which doesn’t sacrifice story or characters for pop culture references and celebrity cameos. And the fact that it’s family friendly is a bonus.
  27. Pretend It's a City: Season 1
    Lebowitz is hilarious, and Scorsese captures her humor, as well as her love of New York City, very well. You may not want to binge Pretend It’s A City, because one can only take so much “New York humor,” even those of us who know the city well. But it’s certainly worth taking in an episode or two at a time.
  28. Master of None: Season 3
    By shifting its focus from Dev to Denise, Master Of None gives us a third season that’s fresh and poignant and makes us want to see more after its first episode. Does it trip over its own pretentiousness at times? Sure. But that’s not a deterrent for us.
  29. The Gilded Age: Season 2
    The Gilded Age Season 2 is a fine, fizzy treat. Julian Fellowes has once again crafted a perfectly elevated soap opera for the masses.
  30. Street Food: Latin America: Season 1
    his series wins when it feels as though we, the audience watching via Netflix, are getting secret insider tips about the coolest most authentic places to check out, like a local whispered it to us. it doesn’t feel exploitative at all or that it’s trying to be a cool Instagram post. Street Food: Latin America isn’t quite changing the game when it comes to food or travel or culture shows, but it’s a pretty solid contribution that will leave you feeling hungry and educated at the same time.
