The best cop shows you can stream, ranked

From the best that fictional police departments have to offer, this list covers them all

Up until the early 2000s, many of the most popular television dramas of all time focused on the police. This makes sense in theory: Cops are supposed to fight crime and defeat the bad guys. The clear integrity of police compared to criminals helped to make it obvious who the audience was rooting for. Once the antihero movement of the late 2000s started to take shape, though, the best crime shows started to evolve with the times. Police were no longer the flawless good guys, but ethically gray and morally ambiguous. This clarity mirrored the ways civilians started to sour on the police as an entity and as an ideal in real life.

The 10 best 90s movies ever that you need to stream now

No matter your age in the 90s, you need to see these films and experience the nostalgia

Clueless - Stacey Dash and Alicia Silverstone

The nostalgia of the 90s is so ubiquitous that it's become almost gauche. Endless reboots of popular 90s phenomena and an exhausting cycle of predictable retro fashion have inundated popular culture with an almost frightening lust for millennial childhood. No wonder so many have already moved on to glamorizing the early aughts!

It's a shame that so much 90s ephemera has been poisoned by revisionist sentimentality, considering the actual artistic achievements of that decade were quite formidable. Sure, it's easy to remember the romantic camp of Titanic with fondness — but there were actual astounding works of art being made at that time, too. In fact, 90s classics like The Fifth Element and Silence of the Lambs have already made it onto our lists of best sci-fi movies and best thriller films, respectively.

You can now stream the original Shōgun miniseries — here’s how

You can now stream the original Shōgun from the '80s!

After making a tremendous debut earlier this year, FX and Hulu's Shōgun is easily one of the top TV series of 2024. In addition to being critically acclaimed, Shōgun is such a massive hit that FX is already planning additional seasons to what was originally a standalone adaptation of James Clavell's 1975 novel. It was also one of Hulu's most-streamed series of the year, so it's understandable why FX wants to keep the show going.

This isn't the first time that Shōgun has taken audiences by storm. The original TV adaptation of Shōgun from 1980 was widely considered one of the greatest miniseries ever made. It also had the distinction of being the first and only U.S. production to be filmed entirely in Japan. At the time the new Shōgun premiered earlier this year, the original miniseries wasn't available to stream. But thanks to the new adaptation, fans can now find the 1980 incarnation of Shōgun on one of the major streaming services.
