  1. Saved by the Bell: Season 1
    The Saved By The Bell reboot makes the smart decision to be much more about the new kids at Bayside than about the middle-aged versions of the characters who went to the school 30 years ago. Sure, there’s going to be some self-referential jokes on the show, but Wigfield has that aspect under control so it won’t overwhelm the series.
  2. Arnold: Season 1
    Despite the fact that Schwarzenegger isn’t exactly the most introspective person in the world, Arnold is still a fascinating portrait of a person who has was determined to be a success in the United States and has achieved in mostly every field he entered.
  3. The Good Fight: Season 4
    In its triumphant fourth season, The Good Fight remains one of the best, and most insane, shows on television.
  4. Girls5eva: Season 3
    The latest season of Girls5Eva took a risk by making a few significant changes to its formula, but it didn’t suffer for it. The fact is that the talented actresses in the group, along with the show’s funny-because-it’s-so-ridiculous writing and songs are as solid as they’ve ever been and keep the show’s frenetic pace moving.
  5. The Wonder Years (2021): Season 1
    The new version of The Wonder Years doesn’t try to be like the original, and that’s a good thing. It doesn’t have the impact the original one had, but we’re confident that it’ll follow its own comedic path and become one of the better network comedies.
  6. folklore: the long pond studio sessions
    It’s an intimate portrait of artists at work, and stands in stark contrast to the very public, very pop persona that has characterized Swift for much of her career.
  7. The Old Man: Season 2
    The strong performances of Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow continue to make The Old Man a must-watch, but it definitely has enough confidence in its ensemble to give us stories without either of them in front of the camera.
  8. The Hardy Boys (2020): Season 3
    The show is going to have to move at a swift clip to answer for everything but it’s already gotten the ball rolling just one episode in.
  9. The Studio: Season 1
    The fact that Rogen, Goldberg and company manage to give everyone else a chance to be over-the-top funny makes for a good balance, with Matt’s desire to make good films grounding everyone else’s motivations of greed and ambition.
  10. The End: Season 1
    The comedy is so black sometimes you can’t see the funny. But it’s all in the absurdities of life, and this well-written and well-acted show promises to be a satisfying watch to anyone ready for its bleakness.
  11. Nick Kroll: Little Big Boy
    Even if Kroll doesn’t spill the tea on what happened on set here, he’s still more than willing to open his big mouth with embarrassing details from his own life. As he says: “Guys, we are all just doing our best.” His best is better than OK.
  12. The 1619 Project: Season 1
    Whether you’ve read Hannah-Jones’ work or are coming to it for the first time, The 1619 Project is a fascinating look at the Black population’s significant contributions to the building of the U.S., with a nuanced approach that was never in our U.S. History books.
  13. Always Jane: Season 1
    Always Jane shows the life of a 2020s teenager who just happens to be trans, with all the struggles that come with being at that stage of life. What makes it interesting to watch is that her life isn’t being treated as some sort of anomaly, either by the filmmakers or her family.
  14. We Are the Champions: Season 1
    We Are The Champions shows contests that you may have never heard of or seen, but even if you have seen them before, the show treats them with such reverence that you’ll become fans.
  15. Amadeus
    Amadeus works as a series, not just because it looks fantastic, but that the main characters are treated as the nuanced people they were, and there seems to be less filler than one might expect.
  16. The Yogurt Shop Murders
    The makers of The Yogurt Shop Murders are not just curious about the case but how deeply the case affected Austin and the people who were intimately involved with it over the past three decades, an approach that we wish we saw more often in true crime docs.
  17. Curse of the Chippendales: Season 1
    The docuseries is entertaining despite its structural machinations, because it takes the phenomenon of Chippendales as seriously as it should be taken.
  18. Atlanta's Missing and Murdered: The Lost Children: Season 1
    Well-balanced in its voices, clear of narrative and tough as nails — just as it absolutely needs to be.
  19. Power Book III: Raising Kanan: Season 1
    Power Book III: Raising Kanan is a prequel that not only captures a particular place at a particular time but also builds a world that can quickly help the show stand alone from its parent series.
  20. Ghosts (2021): Season 3
    Ghosts has become a true ensemble show in its third season, and it starts its new season with an episode that shows just how much of a family the ghosts and the “livings” have become.
  21. Nuclear Family: Season 1
    Nuclear Family promises to be an engaging 3-hour look at a strong family that withstood a challenge that would tear other families apart.
  22. Doing the Most With Phoebe Robinson: Season 1
    Phoebe Robinson has such a warm and winning presence as host of Doing The Most With Phoebe Robinson that it makes the series a very easy watch.
  23. Young Love: Season 1
    Young Love is funny and heartwarming, and it doesn’t try to do more than show a young family trying their best to build their lives together, despite setbacks.
  24. Baghdad Central: Season 1
    Baghdad Central is well-written, -directed and -acted, and the debut episode sets the table for some potentially vigorous drama.
  25. The Woman in the Wall: Season 1
    The Woman In The Wall succeeds because of the lead performance by Ruth Wilson as well as the grey areas that the tragedy of the Magdalene Laundries caused.
  26. Young Sheldon: Season 7
    Young Sheldon has been evolving into an ensemble family comedy for its entire run, but in its final season that goal is fully realized. And, with Armitage way past his “cute kid” stage, it’s come just in time.
  27. Ginny & Georgia: Season 2
    With so many characters harboring so many secrets, or in some cases, secret feelings toward each other, the tension is already building in episode one. It’ll be a fun ride watching where this season of Ginny & Georgia goes.
  28. Animal: Season 1
    Animal held our interest because of its amazing photography, but the energetic narration and family-centric narratives help move things along.
  29. Hannah Gadsby: Something Special
    If all you knew about Gadsby was hearing comedians debating whether Gadsby was even a comedian, then this might help settle that debate once and for all.
  30. The Big Conn: Season 1
    The Big Conn is one of those docuseries that moves along at a good pace while not leaving out much pertinent information. It’s as intriguing as a good scripted drama, and that should be the goal of any true crime docuseries.
