If it didn’t, it wouldn’t be a very good list. We’re sure it’ll leave everyone dissatisfied in one way or another. So, without further ado, here’s our anything-but-exhaustive guide to the 75 best TV shows on Netflix, which we’ll be updating regularly as tastes change and titles come and go from the platform. For us, there’s no other way to talk about TV. The choices, as you might expect, are sometimes idiosyncratic, possibly controversial and always deeply personal. So we surveyed the eight-member Times TV team about individual picks for the best TV shows on Netflix and compiled the results into this master list. Still, a 75-item unranked list is no fun - and perhaps not terribly helpful if you too need help sorting through all the streamer has to offer. Who’s to say this anime is better than that sitcom, or that melodrama is better than this docuseries?
Even if you start off by eliminating nontheatrical (formerly “made-for-TV”) movies, one-off comedy specials and others that could reasonably exist under the TV show umbrella, you’re left with an almost impossible array of options. There’s no way to select just 75 TV shows from a catalog as large as Netflix’s without making someone mad.
