Drops of God‘, a rather juvenile entry to the list, has made it to the fifth position on the list. Directed by Jean-Luc Berlot, Léonard Glowinski, Anne Thomopoulos, and Sam Kozhaya, the show tells a story of cutthroat competition between the lead characters, with hints of supreme yet sophisticated intelligence. The cast includes Fleur Geffrier, Tomohisa Yamashita, and Stanley Weber, who bring the rivalry and sophistication in the show to life perfectly well.

‘Cunk on Earth’

Cunk on Earth‘ is the top comedy show that the audience has liked enough for it to be on the list. Grabbing the 6th position on Rotten Tomatoes, the show, led by Diane Morgan, gives a perfect dose of dopiness and ingenious comedic timing to its viewers. Director Christian Watt has seemingly done a great job at humorizing anthropological documentaries through this show. Morgan, as the performer, also does full justice to the satire she presents with a lace of brilliance to it.

‘Primo’

Created by Shea Serrano, the show revolves around the life of 16-year-old Rafa Gonzales, played by Ignacio Diaz-Silverio, and how he is raised by his mother played by Christina Vidal, and five uncles.

Though the characters on the show have entered a mature character arc, the comedy seemingly persists. Despite some internal conflict amongst the show’s crew, ‘The Other Two’ has made it to the list and is therefore seemingly blooming.

‘Deadloch’ Season 2

‘For All Mankind’ Season 4

Last but not least, the fourth season of ‘For All Mankind’ has made it to the tenth position as per Rotten Tomatoes. Based on revisionist history, the show takes up a “what if” approach in a world where the global space race never ended.

As we are all set to welcome the new year with the holiday season approaching, this list of top shows should suffice for viewers willing to binge-watch some good content.
