TV may not be peaking quite the way it was a few years back, but there are still more than enough shows out there to keep you busy. After Netflix emerged on the scene and revolutionized how we all watched TV, it was joined by a huge swath of competitors determined to take advantage of the streaming boom. All of those competitors have great stuff to watch, but Netflix is still many people’s hub for all things TV. Even within the streamer, though, it can be difficult to figure out what the best shows on Netflix are.

Thankfully, that’s where this list comes in. We’ve compiled a rundown of what to watch on Netflix, and these Netflix shows should add up to days and days of endless binging. You can also check out our list of the best Hulu series, best Amazon Prime series, best Disney Plus series, and best Netflix movies after you’ve made it through the series listed below.

Band of Brothers (2001)

Band of Brothers
tv-ma 1 Season
Genre Drama, War & Politics
Cast Damian Lewis, Donnie Wahlberg, David Schwimmer
Another HBO classic that’s making its Netflix debut, Band of Brothers chronicles the history of World War II from the perspective of a single American company. The show follows these soldiers through training camp and into the trenches, and it’s a riveting look at what it meant to be a soldier at that time. Thanks to Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks’s work producing the series, the show feels epic in scope and deeply emotional. On top of all that, the show’s cast features a number of future stars.

Insecure (2016)

Insecure
tv-ma 5 Seasons
Genre Comedy, Drama
Cast Issa Rae, Yvonne Orji, Jay Ellis
Created by Larry Wilmore, Issa Rae
HBO is now putting some of its premiere shows on Netflix, which means you can watch Insecure in its entirety as a new show on Netflix. The show stars Issa Rae as an unfamous version of herself who is regularly confronted with the awkwardness of everyday life. Alongside her best friend Molly, the two explore everything it means to be a Black woman in America in the late 2010s. Insecure is consistently funny, and proves that Issa Rae could be just as funny writing jokes as she is delivering them on screen.

The Diplomat (2023)

The Diplomat
tv-ma 1 Season
Genre Drama
Cast Keri Russell, Rufus Sewell, David Gyasi
Created by Debora Cahn
Following a career diplomat who suddenly finds herself in the spotlight, The Diplomat is a zippy show that combines everything you loved about The West Wing with the soapiness of Grey’s Anatomy. It’s not high art, exactly, but thanks to excellent central performances from Keri Russell and Rufus Sewell, who plays her defiant, loose-cannon husband, everything comes together beautifully. Is this a great way to learn about how foreign policy actually works? No. Is it thoroughly absorbing in its own, slightly silly way? Absolutely.

Better Call Saul (2015)

Better Call Saul
tv-ma 6 Seasons
Genre Crime, Drama
Cast Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seehorn
Created by Peter Gould, Vince Gilligan
On paper, there are few TV shows that seem like worse ideas than Better Call Saul. Designed as a prequel series to Breaking Bad, and focused on Walter White’s attorney Saul Goodman, the show seemed like it would undoubtedly mar the legacy of its predecessor. Instead, Better Call Saul was so brilliantly written, performed, and directed, that there are some who think it actually eclipses Breaking Bad. Wherever you rank each show, Saul is undoubtedly worthy of its predecessor and also managed to run for one more episode than Breaking Bad did.

BEEF (2023)

BEEF
tv-ma 1 Season
Genre Comedy, Drama
Cast Steven Yeun, Ali Wong, Joseph Lee
Created by Lee Sung-jin
Telling the story of two angry thirty-somethings who, fueled by their rage, have an ongoing battle with one another, BEEF is one of the more original series you’re likely to see on Netflix or any other streaming service. Featuring stellar lead performances from Stephen Yeun and Ali Wong, the show is about how hard it can be to find happiness, no matter what circumstances you find yourself in. Thanks to sharp writing and a solid supporting cast, BEEF is both funny and deeply moving, a reminder that battling your own rage can be exhausting in and of itself.

You (2018)

You
tv-ma 4 Seasons
Genre Mystery, Crime, Drama
Cast Penn Badgley, Charlotte Ritchie, Tilly Keeper
Created by Greg Berlanti, Sera Gamble
Although You didn’t originally air on Netflix, the show became a phenomenon after it was ported to the streamer after airing its first season on Lifetime. From there, it became genuinely beloved thanks to its demented combination of morbidity and humor. Penn Badgley’s central performance as Joe Goldberg has kept us anchored the entire time, and even as the show has gotten more deranged with each passing season, it’s hard to deny that it’s also deeply effective.

Derry Girls (2018)

Derry Girls
tv-ma 3 Seasons
Genre Comedy
Cast Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Louisa Harland, Nicola Coughlan
Created by Lisa McGee
Set against the backdrop of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, Derry Girls follows a group of teens as they navigate their personal lives and live through turmoil. Throughout its run, Derry Girls has stood out from other Netflix comedies in part thanks to its wonderful young cast, who all prove to be remarkably gifted young actors even though they are largely unknown. The show also has an ideal mix of acerbic wit and grounded, emotional stories that will hook viewers episode after episode, and keep them coming back for more.

Sex Education (2019)

Sex Education
81 %
8.4/10
tv-ma 4 Seasons
Genre Comedy, Drama
Cast Asa Butterfield, Gillian Anderson, Ncuti Gatwa
Created by Laurie Nunn
One of the major benefits of Netflix has been the way it exposes American audiences to shows that were produced in the U.K., and there may be no better example of that trend than Sex Education. The show follows a group of teenagers living in a small British town who are experiencing a wide variety of normal sexual awakenings. From its very first scene, Sex Education is remarkably frank about sex, and what it means for people of all ages. It’s also smart, blisteringly funny, and features one of the best ensembles of young talent on either side of the pond.

Cast Christian Convery, Nonso Anozie
Created by Jim Mickle
Sweet Tooth begins in the midst of an apocalyptic pandemic, when children are suddenly born as hybrids, somewhere between human and animal. A little boy known as “Sweet Tooth” or Gus (Christian Convery) is the show’s totally winsome main character, and we get a first-hand look at the kinds of discrimination he experiences as a hybrid. In addition to the stunning outdoor expanses that serve as the show’s setting, Sweet Tooth also features a pair of highly endearing central performances that will keep you watching until the very end.

The Queen’s Gambit (2020)

The Queen’s Gambit
8.0/10
tv-ma 1 Season
Genre Drama

Created by Scott Frank, Allan Scott
One of the most popular limited series to hit Netflix, The Queen’s Gambit is also one of the streamer’s best. The show follows introvert Beth Harmon, an orphan from the age of 9, (Anya Taylor-Joy) as she discovers her love for and mastery over chess thanks to her relationship with the chess-loving janitor at her school. After becoming a child prodigy, she goes on to break gender norms and defeat grandmasters. Child stardom comes at a price, though, as she struggles with alcoholism and substance abuse on her way to the top.

Arrested Development (2003)

Arrested Development
78 %
8.7/10
tv-14 5 Seasons
Genre Comedy
Cast Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, Portia De Rossi
Created by Mitchell Hurwitz
Following the largely despicable Bluths, a very wealthy family who finally discover that their wealth has been founded on lies and deceit after their patriarch is arrested, Arrested Development is one of the best comedies in TV history. Seemingly the only sane one in the family, Michael Bluth must attempt to keep everyone else above water as their way of life crumbles around them. This shows features some of the most quotable lines in comedy history, and Netflix even revived it for a more recent, albeit less successful, run.

Peaky Blinders (2013)

Peaky Blinders
8.8/10
tv-ma 6 Seasons
Genre Drama, Crime, Historical Fiction
Cast Cillian Murphy, Paul Anderson, Helen McCrory
Created by Steven Knight
Incredibly acted and shockingly graphic, Peaky Blinders is a period-piece crime drama loosely based on the real Shelby crime family. Shortly after World War I, an infamous Irish crime family infiltrated and uprooted high-class society during the peak of its riches and splendor. The show is focused primarily on Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy), the leader of Peaky Blinders, who must establish and maintain power by means of fear and brutality. Disclaimer: This is not at all a show for kids.

Big Mouth
7.9/10
tv-ma 7 Seasons
Genre Animation, Comedy, Romance
Cast Nick Kroll, John Mulaney, Jesse Klein
Created by Jennifer Flackett, Andrew Goldberg, Nick Kroll
One of Netflix’s longest running animated shows, Big Mouth pushes the envelope in graphic, often hilarious ways. Following a group of confused adolescents and their individual journeys through the process of growing up, we are subject to their strange, dark fantasies and mythical creatures such as “hormone monsters,” a “shame wizard,” and a “depression kitty” that prove to be remarkably apt metaphors for much of what young people go through.

In this sci-fi anthology series on Netflix, you never know what you’re going to get. Episodes range from six to 18 minutes, and each is a totally distinct mind-bending spectacle.

The Great British Baking Show (2010)

The Great British Baking Show
8.5/10
tv-pg 13 Seasons
Genre Reality-TV
Cast Mel Giedroyc, Sue Perkins, Sandi Toksvig, Noel Fielding, Matt Lucas
Created by Andy Devonshire
Many competitive food shows tend to feature intense, cut-throat culinary challenges, but The Great British Baking Show is the exact opposite of that. This lovely Netflix cooking show is full of sweet treats and calming British accents, all set amid the beautiful English countryside.

The Crown (2016)

The Crown
84 %
8.6/10
tv-ma 5 Seasons
Genre Biography, Drama, History
Cast Claire Foy, Olivia Colman, Imelda Staunton
Created by Peter Morgan
Chronicling a dramatized portrayal of the recent history of the British royal family, The Crown freely speculates about the way they may have handled the political and personal turmoil around them, with some real-life historical details added for emphasis. Wonderfully acted and dazzlingly realized, The Crown is ultimately about what it means to be the monarch in an age when that title is largely ceremonial. Queen Elizabeth’s power is in what she doesn’t do, and yet the show is somehow riveting anyway.

Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj (2018)

78 %
8.2/10

Cast Hasan Minhaj, Joyelle Johnson, Arnab Goswami
Created by Hasan Minhaj, Prashanth Venkataramanujam
If you’ve seen and enjoyed Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj should be your next stop. The show is a bit more harshly pointed at the corporations and politicians of today’s world, but it’s often just as funny. Minhaj wanted to create a show that was “timely and timeless.” Unfortunately, this show seemed to bite a bit too hard as Netflix canceled it after six seasons, despite it winning an Emmy, a Peabody Award, and two Webby Awards.

Cobra Kai
8.6/10

Created by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg
Picking up where the iconic ’80s trilogy that started with The Karate Kid left off, Cobra Kai revives all the old rivalries and fighting styles that made it so memorable. Plagued by his embarrassing loss in the All Valley Karate Tournament against Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) half-drunkenly revives the once-dead Cobra Kai karate studio in an attempt to take his life back.

Norsemen
7.8/10

Genre Comedy
Cast Kåre Conradi, Nils Jørgen Kaalstad, Jon Øigarden
Created by Jon Iver Helgaker, Jonas Torgersen
According to Viking experts, Norsemen is one of the most accurate depictions of what life might have been like in that time. On top of that, the show is absolutely hilarious. It’s a good series to watch even if it’s never cracked Netflix’s top 10.

More than 10 years after the original series went off the air, Netflix decided to reboot Queer Eye with an entirely new Fab Five in Atlanta. Rather than just offering fashion tips, recipes, and a makeover, however, the style experts provide apt social commentary to everyone they work with. All in all, it’s an easy show to binge and will likely leave you with a good feeling that lasts long after the credits roll. We’ve also found even more fashion documentaries on Netflix if you’re interested.

Throughout the series, the lighthearted food duo travels around the country cooking with celebrities, famous chefs, and more. They also showcase a variety of delicious recipes, taking you step-by-step through the creative process. The Chef Show is also one of our top picks for the best cooking shows on Netflix right now.

Cast Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany, Anna Torv
Created by Joe Penhall
True-crime podcasts and true-crime shows are great, but crafting them into compelling dramas can be tricky. Mindhunter is a Netflix show based on the true story of the people at the forefront of the then-emerging science of profiling serial killers. The show follows FBI agent Holden Ford (Jonathan Groff) as he and his team interview serial killers across the U.S. in an attempt to understand why they do what they do. Tragically, this great series was cut short after just two seasons on the air.

Created by Baran bo Odar, Jantje Friese
When a young boy in a small German town goes missing, his family and the people of the town start to notice some strange coincidences and patterns in the town’s history. Dark has some incredible performances and a well-written plot, but it requires a lot of attention to understand what is going because of its sprawling ensemble cast and its complicated narrative conceit.

Black Mirror

Genre Sci-fi, Psychological Thriller, Dystopia
Cast Daniel Kaluuya, Wyatt Russell, Bryce Dallas Howard, Daniel Lapaine
Created by Charlie Brooker
In a wild mix of sci-fi themes and terrifyingly not-so-distant-future technology, Black Mirror will thrill, entice, and possibly scare you. Each episode is entirely different, which means you can watch them completely out of order and still enjoy a gripping short film with high-profile guest stars and terrifyingly real conceits. With each new season, Black Mirror continues to shine a light on the dystopic qualities behind our technology, qualities that are only feeling more and more real with each passing day.

Created by Liz Feldman
Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini are both legends, and with good reason. The two teamed up for Dead to Me, which follows their characters as they become friends and decide to try to solve the hit-and-run death of one of their husbands. Over the course of its three seasons, Dead to Me takes a number of twists and turns, but the real reason to keep watching is because both Cardellini and Applegate remain excellent throughout, and especially so in the third and final season.

Heartstopper
tv-14 2 Seasons
Genre Drama
Cast Joe Locke, Kit Connor, William Gao
Created by Alice Oseman
Following a pair of British teenagers who discover that their friendship may actually be something more, one of the chief joys of Heartstopper is the way that the central relationship is allowed to naturally progress. Few shows are more delicate or lovely about young gay romance, and few have managed to make such a lasting impact so quickly. The British exports are some of the best shows on Netflix, and Heartstopper is definitely among them.

Mo (2022)

Mo
tv-ma 1 Season
Genre Comedy, Drama
Cast Mo Amer, Teresa Ruiz, Farah Bsieso
Created by Mo Amer, Ramy Youssef
Telling the story of a Palestinian refugee who’s hoping to make America his permanent home, Mo is not nearly as heavy as that premise may make it sound. The series stars Mo Amer, a comedian whose life has plenty in common with the character he’s playing. Mo is light on its feet and incredibly funny, and gives non-Palestinian viewers a window into that culture that never feels overly broad or unspecific. Mo is a delight, and one that Netflix just debuted in 2022.

Although there’s been some behind-the-scenes drama around the show, it’s remained as compelling as ever on-screen through it all.

Adapting an Edgar Alan Poe story with a distinctly modern bent, The Fall of the House of Usher follows a powerful pharmaceutical dynasty that is forced to reckon with its past after members of the family start dying. The series comes from Mike Flanagan, perhaps the most famous horror mind working at Netflix. The Fall of the House of Usher features some of Flanagan’s usual players, and while it can be a bit talky at times, it remains thoroughly engaging and genuinely terrifying, from beginning to end.

Can Sony’s Madame Web avoid the backlash from The Marvels?
Sony doesn't exactly have a good track record with superheoes unless they're Spider-Man
Sydney Sweeney as Julia Carpenter in Madame Web.

Not too long ago, a comic book movie associated with Marvel was about the closest thing to a sure bet in Hollywood. But as The Marvels' lackluster $48.5 million opening weekend proved, not even Marvel Studios is immune from superhero fatigue in a year with comic book movie flops that included The Flash, Blue Beetle, and Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Suddenly, being the next Marvel-related movie on deck isn't necessarily as enviable as it used to be. Sony's Madame Web movie is a continuation of the non-Spider-Man films using characters from Peter Parker's supporting cast as movie stars. In this case, the leading character, Madame Web, is bringing together a team of three different Spider-Women: Spider-Girl, Araña, and of course, Spider-Woman.

It's hard not to see the parallels between The Marvels and Madame Web, as both films feature nearly all female leads. The key difference between them is that The Marvels had established heroines who have headlined their own comics or even their own movies and Disney+ shows. Madame Web has never starred in a comic, and her Marvel counterpart is an elderly woman who has only ever been a supporting player in Spider-Man's world. The three Spider-Women in the cast have had short-lived comics, but never anything with long-term success. Given that pedigree, it would be very surprising if Madame Web does much better than The Marvels.
Is there a trailer for Madame Web?
Yes! And it reveals just how far away from the source material it's willing to go.

What If? season 2 Disney Plus release suggests that Marvel is burning off shows
This latest move from Marvel and Disney Plus is a head-scratcher
An unlikely team of Avengers in What If? season 2.

After a two-year gap between seasons, Marvel has announced that What If? season 2 will premiere on Disney+ on Friday, December 22. Although the first season of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first animated series was serialized weekly in 2021, What If? season 2 will be releasing an episode per day until the ninth episode (which serves as the season finale) arrives on December 30. That would be strange in of itself, but Marvel is also dropping every episode of its next MCU live-action series, Echo, on January 10 on both Disney+ and Hulu. That's also a first for a Marvel Studios show.

What's behind this sudden shift in strategy? The writers' and actors' strikes kept Hollywood on hold for over six months this year, and that means new shows and movies are facing severe delays in 2024. Surely Disney+ could have used those Marvel TV shows to shore up some of the driest periods ahead. Instead, Marvel and Disney are burning them off as if they have no confidence in them.

Apple TV Plus’ Masters of the Air: Everything we know about Austin Butler, Steven Spielberg’s follow-up to Band of Brothers
This WW2 epic may be the best one yet
Austin Butler in Masters of the Air.

In addition to being one of the greatest directors in movie history, Steven Spielberg has also had an illustrious career as a producer. One of the director's favorite subjects, both in his own work and in the work he produces, has always been World War 2. Now, the director is set to produce another WW2 series to go right alongside The Pacific and Band of Brothers, two of the most acclaimed miniseries in history. Just as he did for Band of Brothers, Spielberg is reteaming with producers Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman for Masters of the Air, which will take a more aviation-oriented perspective to the war. Unlike those projects, though, this miniseries is headed for a streaming service: Apple TV Plus.

Now that the new miniseries is only a couple of months away, many are understandably curious about the details behind the series, including who's in the cast, when the series is set to start streaming, and what the story is about.
Who is in the cast of Masters of the Air?
Masters of the Air is set to be led by Austin Butler, who has had a meteoric rise to stardom after earning an Oscar nomination for his work in last year's Elvis. Butler already has several more movies in the hopper, including Dune: Part 2 and The Bikeriders, and now he's teaming up with Spielberg to lead this miniseries.
