Have there been any actually great TV shows in the last ten years?

I swear every show I've tried to give a chance to has been complete shite or mediocre at best. There's no way most critics aren't paid off by Netflix/Apple/Amazon to give the torrent of complete ass that's been put out over the last decade positive reviews.

The Dark Crystal sequel series, Age Of Resistance.

A curse upon Netflix for not only cancelling it, but also destroying the puppets & sets and hanging on to the IP so no-one else can continue it on-screen until or unless they say so. The story is consigned to rubbish books, comics & games indefinitely, now.



What I love about it is how it's much darker, bleaker and more messed-up than some assume or give credit. not afraid to venture into big complicated uncomfortable themes. At root, it was about an organised authoritarian-ordered genocide, that must have an unhappy ending if the prequel/original movie still makes sense as canon. Not a kids' show, even if it does have cute elfy puppets living in a hippy fantasy land.

Seladon is my favourite character, she's completely insane and she had her reasons.

White Lotus, Righteous Gemstones, Barry, Mare of Easttown, Sharp Objects, Chernobyl, Black Sails, Ozark.

I wouldn't say any of them are close to being as good as The Sopranos. But those are the only 'great' shows of the last decade I can think of. Television is usually 99% trash with one or two good shows per year. And usually those good shows are on HBO and no other network ever makes anything of quality. Apple and Amazon are spending billions making forgettable slop after slop.
