Best TV Shows of 2015
Ranked by our critic's grades, best first.
Better Call SaulA prequel with no business being better constructed than the series it descends from, and it is.Read the review
NarcosA bilingual crime epic that refuses to soften Colombia for anyone, undercut only by its narrator.
Mr. RobotThe best-composed frames on television, around paranoia the technical detail genuinely earns.
Show Me a HeroSix episodes about council votes, court orders and 200 units of public housing that add up to one of HBO's most gripping political dramas.
Master of NoneAziz Ansari and Alan Yang's comedy grew bolder every season, from an observant New York sitcom to a Bergman homage on 16mm, and most risks paid off.
Schitt's CreekA show that begins as a sneer at rich people and turns into the kindest comedy of its decade.
Jessica JonesOne of the great first seasons about coercive control, followed by two that never find another reason to exist.
DaredevilThe hallway fight rewired television action and D'Onofrio's Kingpin is Marvel's best villain, but thirteen-episode seasons stretch every story thin.
The ExpanseThe best hard science fiction plotting on television, wearing a budget it cannot always hide.
The Last KingdomGame of Thrones without dragons or budget, and better at the history than either.
