Every Certified Fresh TV Show of 2018
In 2018, nearly 500 scripted series premiered in the U.S. — and Rotten Tomatoes has compiled a list of the very best. Below, find every season of television that was Certified Fresh in 2018. The shows come from a wide-ranging field, from first-season streaming sensations (Netflix’s The Haunting of Hill House, Amazon’s Homecoming, YouTube Premium’s Cobra Kai) to premium cable miniseries (HBO’s Sharp Objects, Showtime’s Escape at Dannemora); from critically acclaimed broadcast debuts (The CW’s Black Lightning, NBC’s Making It) to shows that avoided the sophomore slump (the second season of Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, the second season of CBS All Access’ The Good Fight).
TV seasons are considered for Certified Fresh status if their Tomatometer score remains steady at 75% or higher after receiving 20 reviews, including five reviews from Top Critics. Certified Fresh seasons that drop below 60% lose their Certified Fresh designation. To determine the ranking among seasons with the same score, the number of reviews were taken into account. Where two seasons had the same score and the same number of reviews, the titles are listed alphabetically with the title that comes first in the alphabet getting the higher positioning (for example, as of this publication, season 1 of both Cobra Kai and Vida both have the same score with the same number of reviews, so Cobra Kai is positioned higher).
Check out the full list below (and make sure to add some shows you missed to your streaming and DVR queues).
