The best TV shows of the 2010s

The 2010s were an incredible period of time for television. We saw dragons burning armies of the undead, demogorgons emerge from the Upside Down, the British Royal Family go through turmoil, and a chemistry teacher's final fall. To celebrate this amazing time in telly, we have curated this epic list of the best shows of that decade.

Of course, TV shows air over many years and therefore sprawl over multiple decades. We're only counting the seasons and episodes that aired between January 1st, 2010 to December 31st, 2019 (for example, we judged Mad Men based on seasons four to seven, not including one to three). With that in mind, here are the best shows of the 2010s.
