Kate Winslet's raw, grief-stricken turn as a detective struggling to piece together a case as her own life falls apart won her the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress and elevated the standard tropes of investigative fiction.
The White Lotus
The web series, which was a breakout hit with its first season, switched gears from a class war to the battle of sexes, but stayed no less gleefully riveting.
Veep
Starring comedy legend Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Veep follows former senator Selina Meyer as she learns that being Vice President of the United States is not how she imagined it.

Watchmen
Watchmen blended massive spectacle with intimate concerns, and it did so with a grace sorely lacking in current superhero narratives.
Sharp Objects
Sharp Objects is rendered compelling thanks to the internal conflicts of Amy Adams' character. And while the show is a slow burn, the unfolding of the truth is more electrifying because of it.
Game Of Thrones
The eight-season historical fantasy was big-budget storytelling at its best, blending palace intrigue, a hundred painstakingly laid plotlines and dragons
