Best Netflix Shows to Watch Right Now

Streaming services have been a godsend during the COVID pandemic, enabling people to watch or rewatch great shows when many other entertainment options have been unavailable. In some regards, Netflix is the granddaddy of them all. Founded by Reed Hastings in 1997, it began selling and renting DVDs by mail. It introduced streaming in 2007 and began producing its own content in 2012. Now it has a vast library of films and television shows, original and otherwise, and hundreds of millions of subscribers all over the world. This is every state’s favorite show on Netflix in 2020.

24/7 Tempo has compiled a list of the all-time best Netflix shows based on Rotten Tomatoes ratings. Topping the list is “Master of None,” an award-winning comedy-drama TV series that is now more than five years old. Created by Aziz Ansari and Alan Yang, it tells the story of a young actor, played by Ansari, and his personal and professional adventures. It has had guest appearances by stars such as Claire Danes and Angela Bassett. Read here for America’s most loved TV personalities.

To identify the all-time best Netflix shows to watch, 24/7 Tempo reviewed the TV shows airing on Netflix with the highest Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, an online movie and TV review aggregator, as of April 27, 2021. To be considered, shows needed to have a rating of at least 60% and be reviewed by at least 10 people, with ties being broken by the number of reviews.

The list covers every subject imaginable. There’s “GLOW,” an acronym for the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, about a group of Hollywood misfits who get involved in the women’s professional wrestling circuit in the 1980s. From the same era, there’s also “Cobra Kai,” a martial arts comedy-drama series based on the movie “The Karate Kid” and, like that movie, starring Ralph Macchio. 

Then there’s “Money Heist,” a Spanish crime series that became the most-watched non-English-language series on Netflix, until it was supplanted this year by the French-language original “Lupin.”. There are also adult animated shows such as “Bojack Horseman,” with a cast that includes Will Arnett and Aaron Paul, and “Big Mouth,” starring Nick Kroll and John Mulaney. The variety is endless.

The Average American Is Losing Their Savings Every Day (Sponsor)

If you’re like many Americans and keep your money ‘safe’ in a checking or savings account, think again. The average yield on a savings account is a paltry .4% today, and inflation is much higher. Checking accounts are even worse.

Every day you don’t move to a high-yield savings account that beats inflation, you lose more and more value.

But there is good news. To win qualified customers, some accounts are paying 9-10x this national average. That’s an incredible way to keep your money safe, and get paid at the same time. Our top pick for high yield savings accounts includes other one time cash bonuses, and is FDIC insured.

Click here to see how much more you could be earning on your savings today. It takes just a few minutes and your money could be working for you.
