Hulu's catalog is constantly being updated with new TV shows. Here are the 100 best, including Lost, High Fidelity, and Freaks and Geeks

30 Rock Tina Fey’s razor-sharp look behind the scenes at a late-night comedy show looks even smarter over a decade after its premiere. Who hasn’t wondered how this show would skewer changes in the world since it went off the air, from social media influencers to Donald Trump? Looking back on the entirety of one of the best network comedies of the modern age, we really miss Liz Lemon, Tracy Jordan, Jenna Maroney, and, yes, even Jack Donaghy.
Angel Spin-offs of critically acclaimed shows typically fail. You can use the old axiom that lightning doesn’t strike twice, but it’s truly difficult to get out of the shadow of a major hit. It feels like Angel never quite did escape the legacy of Buffy, which is a shame given how excellent this show became. David Boreanaz’s first star vehicles ran from 1999-2004 and produced over 100 episodes.
Atlanta The only place you can watch one of the ’10s best shows with a streaming subscription is Hulu. Over only two seasons, Donald Glover’s creative vision of life as a young black man in America has been as critically acclaimed as anything on television for a reason. It is daring, brilliant, hysterical TV, the kind of thing that is difficult to capture in words. Just see what all the buzz is about for yourself.
Broad City Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer’s Comedy Central hit just finished its 5-season run, so it’s a good time to look back over what the show accomplished while it was on the air. Based on their real friendship and struggles in New York City, Broad City is an honest, daring piece of TV comedy that feels like something people will find on services like Hulu. We can’t wait to see what Jacobson and Glazer do next.
Castle Rock The first season of Hulu’s series inspired by the universe of Stephen King was a bit rocky, but ambitious enough for it to make this list, and not only for fans of one of the most successful writers of all time.
Community We got six seasons, now where’s our movie!? Fans of this NBC hit will get that reference, and those who don’t should check out this Dan Harmon-created laugher that struggled due to low ratings but stayed afloat and on the air due to its incredibly loyal fan base. Much smarter than critics ever gave it credit for being, this was a show that matched NBC darlings like 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation at its creative peak.
Devs The writer/director of Ex Machina and Annihilation helped launch the new ‘FX on Hulu’ section of the service with this masterful sci-fi show about a tech company that discovers something breathtaking that redefines human existence. It’s smart, complex, foreboding material that fits with his previous work and Garland wrote and directed all eight episodes. Don’t miss this one.
Firefly The top of almost every list of “shows canceled too soon,” Joss Whedon’s FOX sci-fi show had a brief run that almost seems to have cemented its legacy. Would we still be talking about it so much if it had been on for years? The fact that FOX couldn’t see what they had in Firefly actually had a greater impact — illustrating how creatively naïve the networks were at a time when companies like HBO were stealing talent away. See for yourself how big a mistake they made.
Futurama Fry, Bender, and Co. always seemed to live in the shadow of Matt Groening’s other little Fox hit, especially when this animated sci-fi comedy didn’t find an audience as quickly as the network wanted. However, there’s something ironic about how a show that features cryogenically preserved life has kind of refused to die, coming back in TV films and even a revival on Comedy Central. It’s a testament to the diehard fans. Don’t be surprised if it comes back for another reboot.
The Great Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult star in this razor-sharp comedy period piece from the writer of the Oscar-winning The Favourite. Much like that feature film, this series reveals the general insanity of the rich and powerful with witty writing and great performances from top to bottom. High Fidelity Hulu pulls a gender-swap on the Nick Hornby novel and beloved 2000 John Cusack film of the same name, casting Zoe Kravitz as a record store owner obsessed with top five lists and collecting pop culture. Kravitz is the main reason to watch this one, as she holds together this romantic dramedy with her notable charisma. The tunes are pretty good too.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia FX’s longest-running show also has one of the network’s most devoted fan bases.
Killing Eve Right now, only the first season of BBC America’s hit show is on Hulu, although it’s likely to be joined soon by the Emmy-nominated sophomore year. Watch whatever you can while you can or you’ll be behind when people talk about one of the most-buzzed shows in years, a whip-smart hybrid of thriller and character study with two phenomenal performances from Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer.
Legion With the possible exception of Twin Peaks: The Return, there’s no more WTF show of the modern era of Peak TV than this very loose adaptation of the Marvel series starring Dan Stevens. This is a show that’s nearly impossible to describe to people who haven’t seen it, which is one of the reasons it’s great. It’s an absolute mindfuck of a program that just got weirder in each of its three seasons. Check it out and try and explain it all to us.
Lost ABC’s last great drama premiered in 2004 and became an overnight sensation. The road over the next six seasons would be rocky, although history is starting to come around to remember the peaks of this brilliant show more than its valleys. If you haven’t seen it, we’re jealous of what you’re about to experience. Just watch the pilot, still one of the best ever made, and try not being hooked immediately.
Normal People Hulu and BBC Three adapted Sally Rooney’s hit novel of the same name into this Emmy-nominated mini-series. The story is simple enough as it charts the relationship between Marianne and Connell , but people fell in love with the performances, particularly Mescal, who found his way into a very crowded field and got a nomination for an Emmy for Best Actor.
Party Down One of the cult hits of the modern era of TV, it feels like way more people have watched this Starz comedy in the decade since it went off the air than ever paid attention to it when it was on. Adam Scott leads a great ensemble as an actor forced to work a crab job at a catering company. Scott stars alongside Ken Marino, Jane Lynch, Martin Starr, Lizzy Caplan, Jennifer Coolidge, Megan Mullaly, and many more. Yes, these are all very funny people.
Ramy Hulu made some progress in the original comedy department in early 2019, premiering acclaimed shows like PEN15, Shrill, and this program, their best original comedy to date. Ramy Yousseff creates and stars in a quasi-biographical story of what it’s like to grow up Muslim in New York in the ’10s. It’s like Atlanta and Master of None in the way it blends issues of race into universal stories about being young in America. Don’t miss this one.
Rick and Morty Is there any group of people out there more loyal than Rick and Morty fans? In the span of just three seasons, Dan Harmon’s brilliant animated sci-fi comedy has developed into the kind of phenomenon that people obsess over. And the news that there will be many more adventures of poor Morty and his mad scientist uncle Rick means that the cult that adores this show is likely to grow. Watch out.
The Shield The only place you can watch one of the best cop shows of all time is Hulu. Shawn Ryan’s FX drama helped shape the modern TV landscape with its no-holds-barred presentation of cops who operate in a very gray area of morality. Michael Chiklis and Walton Goggins really drive the show, but the entire ensemble works, especially later season-long guest stars like Glenn Close and Forest Whitaker. This is a must-see.
Spaced Long before Star Trek and even Shaun of the Dead, the great Simon Pegg headlined this British comedy that ran for two seasons from 1999-2001. Co-starring his buddy Nick Frost, Spaced features Pegg as Tim Bisley, an average guy who ends up living with a woman he just met, played by Jessica Stevenson. Oh, we almost forgot, it was directed by Edgar Wright, the man who would go on to make movie classics with Pegg & Frost, not to mention a little movie called Baby Driver.
Survivor The undisputed king of the reality series is there on Hulu in its entirety. Yep, you can relive all the buzzworthy moments over the stunning 30-plus seasons of this show. There have been some stinkers, but Survivor remains a strong performer for CBS for a reason. It still has the most addictive structure to its game, demanding both social and physical acumen, and it has the best host in the history of reality TV in Jeff Probst.
The Thick of It Before Veep, Armando Iannucci created this brilliant British political comedy starring peter Capaldi, and featuring the same razor-sharp, vicious wit that would define the HBO Emmy winner too. Like Veep, it pulls back the curtain on the selfish egos that control modern politics. It was such a critical darling that it was adapted into a feature film that ended up getting an Oscar nomination, In the Loop.
Twin Peaks Those of us old enough to remember when the mystery of who killed Laura Palmer dominated the cultural conversation will never forget it. There had never been anything like Twin Peaks on television and there wouldn’t really be anything like it again until David Lynch returned to this world 25 years later. Sadly, the Showtime reboot isn’t on here yet, but catch up with the original and mark the days until it is.
