Top 10 TV Shows of 2020
2020 was a very odd year by any standard and the monotony of quarantine made binge-watching a cultural staple. So, here’s a list of the best 2020 TV series that came out at just the right time.
- The Boys
For first place, The Boys takes the spot for its interesting twist on superhero culture. It provides excellent commentary on the modern corporate landscape (which is ironic considering that it streams on Amazon). With well-constructed action scenes and compelling characters, this show always leaves you surprised and looking for more.
Where to Watch: Prime Video, Vudu
2. Away
This show follows a group of astronauts on the first manned mission to Mars. It focuses mainly on the captain of the mission, and her daughter back on Earth, and explores the psychological impact of being separated for so long. By skillfully creating suspense in every episode, Away proves itself to be definitely binge-worthy.
Where to Watch: Netflix
This show swept the world when it was first released at the beginning of quarantine. When all anyone wanted was an escape, it definitely delivered. The show follows Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, Doc Antle, and a huge web of assassination plots, three-way marriages, murder mysteries, and of course, tigers.

During covid and being home the main articles you see are very gloomy and your article “top 10 tv shows of 2020” is very refreshing. It’s perfect the shows in here are also really good I have seen three out of ten so I will be making my way through the list. I also liked how you guys put in the place where you can find and watch the movie. My only thing is I wished you guys put in summaries for the rest of the movies.

Dear editor
I like the way you told us where to watch all the shows. you give us feedback about the shows and it tells us what kinda twists and turns the show has to get us hooked onto the show. one problem I did have is that when I went to read the article I was already at number 1 I think you should’ve shown it from 10 to 1 to build up suspense. otherwise, the article was good. one question I do have is how you picked what shows to put on their list.
