  1. Beastars compellingly tangles some of the mundanities of human high school life (Oh no! Drama in drama club!) with some weird world-building within an anthropomorphic reality.
  2. Twenties is definitely light on character development, but Gibbs shines as Hattie and the perspective the show presents is unique.
  3. The Plot Against America is a bleak watch, but full of spectacular performances and masterful craftsmanship.
  4. A fun addition to an already fun series.
  5. The Most Dangerous Animal Of All is intriguing enough to spend three-and-a-half hours on, but you may find yourself wondering why this story couldn’t have been told in half the time.

    If you’re in the mood for a show that prioritizes realistic humor and heart over static connect-the-dots storytelling, you’ll enjoy the subtle charms and overwhelming sincerity of Feel Good.
  6. ZeroZeroZero is surprisingly engaging given just how many locales and characters the viewer needs to keep track of.
  7. This is Maron at his best. He’s calm, cool, collected, a comedic leader for this crazy time in our lives.
  8. We’re not looking for edge with Amazing Stories, but in 2020 even family-oriented shows should have more complex and less Hallmark-Channel-worthy stories than what we saw from the first episode.
  9. Miracle Workers: Dark Ages may not have that satisfying story arc that the show’s first season has, but Viswanathan is a great lead and the characters are well-established by the end of the first episode.
  10. This performance is so raw, director Jason Orley leaves in not just the parts Davidson says he’d cut from the special, but also the aside the comic makes to him from onstage about a joke he wants left in, too.
  11. We’re hoping that some of the quirkiness of Dispatches From Elsewhere meshes better with story as the series goes along, but the ensemble’s initial chemistry compels us to keep watching.
  12. Hillary gives viewers the chance to go beyond soundbites and stereotypes, if they dare.
  13. Dave starts slow but does a good job of introducing (or re-introducing) us to Lil Dicky, and how he became a hip hop star by just being Dave.
  14. Breeders’ stark reality of what it’s like to parent young kids these days hits us right in our exhausted funny bones.
  15. Restaurants On The Edge won’t show you anything about running a successful restaurant, but at least it’ll be easy on the eyes.
  16. Followers moves a little slowly, but it’s visually stunning and is a good illustration of how people’s lives come down to numbers on social media.
  17. Its amazingly crafty kids and Great British Bake-Off positive vibe makes for a fun way to pass 40 or so minutes.
  18. Queen Sono is a fun spy thriller that isn’t trying to answer too many questions about the meaning of life, which is sometimes exactly what you need.
  19. The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez is a very difficult show to watch. But it’s one of those that’s a must watch, because it’ll show you how the government agencies that are supposed to protect children can often fail, often for very stupid reasons.

    Hoggart’s innate comedic timing and natural charisma generate so much fun, awkward humor that you’ll be summarily charmed by the offbeat comedy.
  20. Devs emerges as an indisputably stunning mystery.
  21. Pleasant enough and will only get better once it starts building out its own world.
  22. Just eggheaded enough to engage those of us who want to put a smidgen of math behind the overwhelming flood of emotional sludge we parents feel when we’re being parents, or thinking about being parents, or generally existing as parents.
  23. The entire time I was watching the premiere, I was thinking that the show should have been called Avengers: Nazi Hunters.
  24. A darkly enchanting look at the bleaker side of having superpowers.
  25. What we’re not sure about is if this show is going to take some scary twists or if this is going to become just a standard-grade murder mystery that just has some creepy elements.
  26. STREAM IT if you like watching reality and internet clips and making fun of them with a wink and a nod. SKIP IT if you’re expecting the same kind of snark you saw during Joel McHale’s run.
  27. Year Of The Rabbit has Berry hitting the right comedic notes, helped by a funny supporting cast and a setting that’s always ripe for comedy.
  28. If you liked EMHE the first time around, you’ll like it now. And you’ll also like watching Ferguson fumble his way through these jobs and bringing his comedic touch to a show that can get repetitive after awhile.
