Top 2020 New TV Shows

TV is huge. There is so much to watch. Where do we start? Apple TV, Hulu, Disney+, Netflix, Starz, HBO, Showtime, ABC, NBC, Fox- come on, the options are endless. There are so many ways to go with this. We can argue about what’s better. Or we can look at the ratings, which only tell half of the story. We can talk about the best show on Hulu and Netflix. Is The Handmaid’s Tale Hulu’s best?


The Show Must Go On


The year is almost over; and, now is a good time to do some reflection. Saying the best TV is behind us is a matter of opinion. The best TV could be in front of us. So what there is no more Game of Thrones and Big Bang Theory, there are still other choices. Here are the top 2020 TV shows, along with commentary. Here’s to watching and binge-watching only the best episodes!


Out with the old, in with the new. For this list, we only will discuss the top 2020 shows. We start with the Lovecraft Country. What is there to say about a book-based show? You know that it is going to be good. Jurnee Smollett is making a name for herself in the drama series. Beginning in August with six episodes and counting, the HBO show is becoming very popular.


This show makes our cut because the algorithms dictate it. The Fox TV show about artificial intelligence is the definition of brand new. Fox aired the pilot episode on October 6, 2020. They have high hopes for the science-fiction show as Next has a big budget, fine cast, and top crew. 


Creating this list is hard because we decide what we write about and what we discard–that’s power. Choosing Ghost is a no-brainer because the Starz crime drama is a spin-off of one of the most successful shows on TV ever (Power). Created by Courtney A. Kemp, this series is in it for the long haul. Plus, Michael Rainey has potential as the lead actor. Coming back in December, fans can’t wait to see how season 1 concludes.


There is something for everybody on TV. Those with a dark sense of humor will find watching The Great enjoyable. Based loosely on Russian history, Elle Fanning plays a fictional Catherine II. Debuting in May 2020, this Hulu show received an Emmy nomination. It ultimately lost to Schitt$ Creek. 


This Hulu drama series is novel-based. There is a lot to say about a show based on a book. It is simply the best. Little Fires Everywhere is an honorable mention in this category.


This Netflix original is all about Hollywood. What could go wrong? We can choose to watch or binge-watch everything. There are a total of 7 episodes in the miniseries. Plus, it is high-budget.


Ridley Scott does a fine job producing Raised by Wolves. His credit as an executive producer helps drive the show to success.  Recently, HBO renewed the show. Created by Aaron Guzikowski, HBO just renewed Raised by Wolves for a second season. There are great things in store for this science fiction show. Wait and see.


Another Netflix original, Away, is about humans exploring Mars. The cast, especially Hilary Swank, is exceptional. Debuting in September 2020, Away is not too far off the mark. The cinematography of the series is incredible. Hopefully, another season is in the works.


Starring Ethan Hawke, The Good Lord Bird is taking over Showtime. The pilot episode debuted on October 4, 2020. Expect another episode soon. It shouldn’t get canceled because the show has all the right ingredients. What more could we want?


Last but not least, this show makes the final cut. Netflix released this brand new show last week. Motion pictures set in Paris have a good reputation. The highly-rated Emily in Paris is taking on the world. How long will the excitement last?


There are a lot of new TV shows to discuss. Some of them will get canceled for multiple reasons. Fortunately, there are enough TV shows to keep us happy. We could have mentioned more, but ten is a wholesome number. Let’s keep watching and binge-watching only the best because our time is valuable.
