This fall TV season already has a few standout shows that are good now, and have the potential to get into a great groove. So they’re worth investing in now before you have dozens of episodes to catch up on.
While the networks certainly have some stinkers this season, some also have new shows with a lot of potential, like ABC’s “Single Parents” and CBS’ “God Friended Me.”
If you’ve run out of good TV to watch, or just want to be up on new shows people are talking about, we took to ratings aggregator Rotten Tomatoes to rank the best shows of fall 2018. Along with the critic ranking, we included the Rotten Tomatoes audience ranking, a sample of what critics have said so far, and show descriptions courtesy of IMDB.
