100 Best Netflix Series to Watch Right Now (March 2024)

Looking for the best shows on Netflix? Look no further, because Rotten Tomatoes has put together a list of the 100 best original Netflix series available to watch right now, ranked according to the Tomatometer. To keep the list fresh with the best Netflix series to watch, the series featured here are currently in production, have been renewed for further seasons, or aired their final episode recently (within the last year or two, so people can still discover them after they’ve ended).

The most popular shows ranking on our guide to the best-reviewed on Netflix include Stranger Things (which aired its fourth season in 2022), phenom Squid Game (which will air its second season in 2023 or 2024), video game curse-breaking adaptations (Arcane: League of LegendsThe WitcherCyberpunk: Edgerunners), crime dramas (Ozark and Peaky Blinders, which both concluded in April 2022), royal stories (Bridgerton, The Crown), and diverse genre works like Black Mirror, The Sandman, Cobra Kai, and Love, Death + Robots. We’re including only series with at least 10 critics reviews, and for series with the same Tomatometer scores, we list the ones with the most critics reviews first.

Most recently we’ve updated with Warrior, American Nightmare, Griselda, The Brothers Sun, and One Day.
