You have been able to stream Law & Order: Special Victims Unit on Hulu for some time, but now you can add the original Law & Order to the list as well. On December 16, all 20 seasons of the original series will be available to stream. However, that does not include the later seasons of the revival after an 11-year hiatus. The police procedural covers, as the name implies, both the act of law enforcement catching criminals as well as the legal proceedings that follow.

One of the preeminent series of the genre, Law & Order inspired many that came after it, including its own direct spinoffs. Through the seasons, the show has featured a number of actors in lead roles, like Sam Waterson, Anthony Anderson, the late Jerry Orbach, and S. Epatha Merkerson. From its theme song to the iconic “clang,” Law & Order has cemented its place in television history.

When he created Hot Ones as a small YouTube show, Sean Evans probably never dreamed that it would become the phenomenon that it has. But the talk show has evolved into a full-on series with numerous episodes through its seasons. What’s it about? If you’re into hot sauce and seeing celebrities in uncomfortable situations, you’ll want to gear up to watch.

In each episode of Hot Ones, Evans sits down with a different celebrity to talk about their lives and careers while chomping on wings with hot sauces of varying degrees of spiciness. It starts relatively calmly, but as the Scoville heat levels increase, celebrities start sweating, fidgeting, and reacting in often humorous ways. Some can handle the heat (pun intended) better than others. What makes the concept more entertaining is that Evans remains unfazed, no matter how hot the sauces get. The participating celebrities are an eclectic mix, including everyone from Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman to Gordon Ramsay and Doja Cat.

Who made it to the end without crying? You’ll have to watch and find out. The idea is that once a guest gets through the entire taste test, they can promote their next project. But not everyone gets there. Even so, the discussions are candid and entertaining, like you’re watching two friends enjoying a fun dinner together at home.

NCIS (2003)

Fans looking for a solid procedural to watch this month will be delighted with the news that the first 11 seasons of NCIS are available to stream on Hulu. Airing on CBS since 2003, with its 22nd season premiering this year, NCIS has been a mainstay for the network and the genre for more than two decades. A military police procedural, it centers around a team of special agents in the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) and their investigations of crimes within the Navy and Marine Corps.

A spinoff of JAG, NCIS has far surpassed its predecessor to become the third-longest-running scripted live-action primetime series in the U.S., bested only by Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Law & Order. While Mark Harmon departed the series in season 19, he leads the cast in all 11 seasons streaming now.

All five seasons of this quirky legal comedy from the late 1990s and early 2000s are available for your viewing or rewatching pleasure. From the iconic dancing baby to the many running gags, Ally McBeal managed to stand apart from other legal dramas thanks to its cast and lead character, Ally (Calista Flockhart), whose vivid imagination and personal love life always seem to get in the way of her career.

The story begins when Ally starts working at a new law firm, only to discover that her ex works there as well. What’s more, he’s now married to a beautiful and talented lawyer who later joins the team, too. Thanks to all her awkwardness and the antics among the characters, Ally McBeal is a refreshing take on the genre. With lots of rumors about a potential reboot, now is a great time to catch up on the series.

Irreverent humor, silly jokes, and topical storylines are all par for the course with Family Guy, which has been going strong since 1999, with no signs of slowing down. The animated sitcom from Seth MacFarlane, who provides many of the voices for the characters, follows the daily doings of the dysfunctional Griffin family, including the parents, two kids, diabolical talking baby Stewie, and anthropomorphic dog Brian.

Family Guy continues to push the envelope, frequently poking fun at American culture and current events. But it never apologizes and doesn’t shy away from touching on seemingly untouchable topics, including racism, homophobia, and misogyny. While Family Guy isn’t for everyone, it’s among the best for those who appreciate its humor.

Grotesquerie is also from Ryan Murphy, who has become a dominating force in the horror anthology series genre.

What’s Grotesquerie about? Detective Lois Tryon (Nash-Betts) partners with nun Sister Megan (Micaela Diamond) to investigate a series of mysterious crimes happening in their communities and impacting their personal lives.

Justin Hartley won hearts as Kevin Pearson on This is Us, but in Tracker, he plays a very different character. Drawing comparisons to shows like Reacher, Tracker follows Colter Shaw (Hartley), a survivalist who lives as a loner on the road. Shaw gets paid to locate missing friends and family members. He’s not law enforcement, but he has skills, intuition, fearlessness, and a subtle disregard for the rules that help him find his person every single time.

The cases Shaw takes on are often far-fetched, as are the ways he solves them and the increasingly dangerous situations he finds himself in. But boy, is it ever entertaining to watch. There’s also an overarching story about secrets surrounding Shaw’s childhood and one very personal, haunting case he has never been able to solve. Tracker was a surprise hit for CBS when it premiered after Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024. The action drama was swiftly renewed for a second season.

This isn’t your typical vampire drama — it’s actually a mockumentary comedy that presents the idea of vampires living among us, going about their mundane daily lives. Based on the 2014 movie of the same name, What We Do in the Shadows revolves around four vampires living as roommates.

It’s full-on hilarity and perfect for anyone looking for an anti-vampire show that pokes fun at the typical tropes instead of playing into them. Digital Trends’ review called it “one of the funniest shows on TV.” What We Do in the Shadows’ sixth and final season begins airing this month, coming on the heels of its third Outstanding Comedy Series Emmy nomination.

A 10-episode limited sports anthology series hailing from Ryan Murphy as part of his American Story anthology series for FX, American Sports Story chronicles the life, career, downfall, and death of New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez. If you’re familiar with the case, Hernandez had a promising future in football until he was arrested and eventually convicted for murder. The story morphed into a discussion of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a neurodegenerative disease that is increasingly common among football players and that Hernandez was posthumously diagnosed with. There were also questions around sexuality, childhood trauma, mental health, and alleged childhood sexual assault.

The real story took so many twists and turns and American Sports Story sets out to dramatize Hernandez’s life and the horrific events. Josh Andrés Rivera (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) plays Hernandez and Patrick Schwarzenegger (Gen V) is Tim Tebow. The series is sure to reignite conversation around the case.

What do you get when two you combine two comedic icons with a Disney Channel actor turned pop music star? Apparently, it’s a buddy-type comedy about three strangers. Steve Martin (who is also the co-creator of Only Murders in the Building), Martin Short, and Selena Gomez are all residents of an upscale New York building who come together because they share an obsessive passion for true crime. But when they find themselves actually involved in one, then two, and yet another, the situation gets increasingly hairy, and their sleuthing skills are put to the test.

Out of the gate, the series was praised for the charming central characters, along with the “hilarious and insightful” story that takes a silly look at society’s obsession with this tragic genre. The show has had a long list of guest and supporting stars, including Tina Fey, Sting, Nathan Lane, Shirley MacLaine, and, for season 3, Meryl Streep and Paul Rudd. With season 4, the list gets even bigger as the investigation shifts to the mysterious death of Jane Lynch’s Sazz Pataki.

With an impressive voice cast, including both main and recurring characters, Solar Opposites has been a hit for Hulu. So it comes as a surprise that the series has already been renewed for a sixth season as well.

Although it didn’t attain immortality like its unending older brother The Simpsons (which now has the most scripted episodes of any prime-time series), Matt Groening’s other cartoon, Futurama, established an identity of its own as a funny, often poignant vision of the future. The show follows Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a delivery boy who stumbles into a cryogenic pod and wakes up a thousand years in the future. He ends up working for an interplanetary delivery company, working with a variety of colorful characters, including steely cyclops Leela (Katey Sagal) and hard-drinking, sociopathic robot Bender (John DiMaggio). Futurama is an inventive comedy, with every episode going in some wild directions, and it has an incredible cast of oddballs to bounce off each other.

This sports drama based on the ESPN 30 for 30 podcast called The Sterling Affairs is a dramatization of the story of Donald Sterling, former owner of the L.A. Clippers, and his 2014 scandal. Sterling (Ed O’Neill) was caught on tape making racist remarks, and when the audio was leaked, it set off a series of events for the team. Laurence Fishburne plays Clippers coach Doc Rivers, Cleopatra Coleman plays V. Stiviano, Sterling’s assistant, and Jacki Weaver plays Shelly, Sterling’s wife and longtime business partner.

As a re-creation of the scandal, Clipped, which hails from FX on Hulu, is delivered in six episodes. FX describes the series as charting the “collision between a dysfunctional basketball organization and even less-functional marriage, and the precipitating tape’s impact on an ensemble of characters striving to win against the backdrop of the most cursed team in the league.” If you followed this scandal closely a decade ago and you’re a basketball fan (Clippers or otherwise), you’ll want to tune in.

When he left his job in the world of fine dining to take over his family’s small-town sandwich shop, Carmen (Jeremy Allen White) had no idea what he was in for. Not only is he dealing with the grief of family loss, he is also trying to navigate a professional world very different from the one he knows. That includes the challenges of running a small business, and doing so with a team of rough-around-the-edges employees who are initially none too pleased to have him bossing them around. Nonetheless, “Carmy” is determined to succeed professionally. But to do so means sacrifice, often at the expense of his personal growth and happiness.

From FX, the comedy hails from Christopher Storer, the man behind successful shows like Ramy and Eighth Grade. The Bear has been a delightfully entertaining, deeply emotional watch with episodes that tug at the heartstrings. The series is mainly about Carmy’s journey to succeed, if he can get out of his own way, that is. But as the story progresses, it’s about the personal and professional development of all the people who work with him. As each one stops underestimating themselves, they find passion and drive they didn’t know they had, giving every character a moment to shine. The show is as inspiring and uplifting as it is frantic and emotionally draining at times, a delight for the senses in every way.

If you’re a fan of the Canadian comedy Letterkenny, you’ll love Shoresy. In Letterkenny, the character of Shoresy is never seen by face, and that’s for good reason: He is actually played by the show’s creator Jared Keeso, who also stars as the lead character, Wayne. In this spinoff, Shoresy is seen in all his glory. He has decided to move to Sudbury to help a flailing local hockey team, bringing his unique sense of small-town Canadian flare.

Apparently, Shoresy is one of the most popular characters from Letterkenny when it comes to merchandising, so fans were excited to learn more about his story in this comedy that is rife with Canadian slang and other familiar humor.

Looking for your next true-crime obsession? Under the Bridge tells the harrowing story of Reena Virk, a 14-year-old girl from Canada who was beaten and killed by a group of fellow teens in the late ’90s. The story made national headlines in the Great White North, shedding light on the extreme dangers of bullying, racism, and violence among young girls. Virk’s involvement in rebellious activities, minority status, strict religious upbringing, and surrounding of peers influenced by street gang culture, led to a childhood marred with challenges and incessant bullying that eventually grew to full-blown murder.

Under the Bridge dives into the tragic story in the form of a true-crime drama with Vritika Gupta playing Virk and counting Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), Archie Panjabi (The Good Wife), and Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & the Six) among its cast. Despite being a dramatization based on a horrifically true story, Under the Bridge has been praised for presenting the story in a sensitive way, focusing on the main theme of bringing attention to the seriousness of bullying and teenage violence and intolerance. The Chicago Sun Times’ Richard Roeper sums it up nicely in his review, noting that the show is a “sobering reminder this sort of thing still happens to this day, and far too often.”

A gripping historical drama miniseries, We Were the Lucky Ones is a dramatization of the Holocaust, with the central figures being the Kurcs, a family of Polish Jews. As Hitler’s reign of terror progresses, the family scatters, with some ending up in the U.S. and others in concentration camps. The series follows their journey after the war as the surviving family members try desperately to reunite with their loved ones.

From a talented young cast led by Joey King and Logan Lerman to the emotional and heart-wrenching story inspired by real people, the series, which was released in late March 2024, is a poignant look at a dark time in history. Lacy Buagher Milas of Paste Magazine calls We Were the Lucky Ones a series “whose whole is so much greater than the sum of its parts.” She adds that the handling of themes like family, loyalty, love, trauma, and tragedy are “almost painfully prescient when compared to our current global moment.”

With two seasons under its belt, Extraordinary is one of those hidden gems on Hulu that won’t disappoint. Combining superhero comedy with a coming-of-age theme, it’s about Jen (Máiréad Tyers), a 25-year-old living in a world where everyone obtains some type of superpower once they turn 18. That is, everyone but Jen. She’s the only “regular” human, and it’s taking a toll on her. The series follows Jen’s journey as she tries somehow induce the powers she is supposed to possess while coming to terms with the fact that she needs to accept who she is before she can become who she can be.

The British series has been well reviewed, scoring a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score for both of its seasons. The laughs are plenty, from Jen’s new cat, who she discovers is a shape-shifter (even her pet has powers!) to her ridiculous and desperate attempts to harness a power, any power. Extraordinary is a sharp, funny, and witty series about peer pressure to be like everyone else in a way you’ve never seen.

Receiving rave reviews right out of the gate, Shōgun is a spectacular reimagining of the 1980 TV miniseries and the James Clavell novel on which that was based. Three people end up in the same place by happenstance: John Blackthorne (Cosmo Jarvis), an English sailor, Lord Yoshii Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada), a powerful daimyo, and Lady Toda Mariko (Anna Sawai), a woman who has been dishonored by her family.

While the story in Shōgun is largely fictional, it’s also loosely based on real historical events, with each character based on a real person. Blackthorne, for example, is based on English navigator Williams Adam, who became a samurai. He was taught by Tokugawa Ieyasu, on whom Toranaga is based, while Mariko is modeled after Hosokawa Garasha, an aristocrat from the Sengoku period. With a 100% Rotten Tomatoes critic score, Shōgun is poised to be one of the best new shows this year. CNN’s Brian Lowry calls it an “intoxicating combination of action, romance, and political intrigue.”

The Crown’s Emma Corrin stars as Darby, one of the guests invited to a reclusive billionaire’s estate. She also happens to be an amateur detective. When someone is found dead not long after joining the party, Darby takes it upon herself to use her skills and investigate and stop another murder from happening.

At first, Bob’s Burgers struggled to find traction in Fox’s animation block, failing to pull in the dedicated audiences of Family Guy and The Simpsons. Over the last more than a decade, however, the Belchers have emerged as an entity all their own, a family struggling to make ends meet, but never struggling to cheer each other up and have as good of a time as they can. The characters never age, but the sitcom only seems to get better with time, fixating on the fictional family and their burger joint.

With a feature film that celebrates the show’s success as well (note that the movie is no longer streaming), there’s no better time to start binging the Belcher family’s escapades.

With a predominantly Native American cast and crew, Reservation Dogs provides a comedic glimpse into indigenous life. When four indigenous teenagers living on a reservation in rural Oklahoma set their sights on moving to a wonderful and exotic place they know as California, they are willing to do whatever it takes to get there. That means engaging in criminal activities to acquire the funds they need to leave. But when a rival gang shows up in town, the boys find themselves fighting crime as much as they are committing it.

Having premiered in early August 2021, the series, which ends after season 3, has received rave reviews. With an almost perfect 98% Certified Fresh RottenTomatoes rating, critics say it’s a “low-key comedy that deftly captures the malaise of youth and Rez life.”

Sterling Archer is an agent for a dysfunctional intelligence agency in this animated sitcom that takes inspiration from franchises like James Bond and mid-century comic art. Relying on reference-heavy humor and meta-comedy, Archer revolves around the narcissistic, womanizing secret agent Archer and his seven colleagues, each with their own quirks, like his snarky mother, delusional and psychotic personal assistant, and a morally bankrupt scientist.

The later seasons of Archer, which was originally created for basic cable network FX and then moved to sister network FXX, are designed like an anthology, with each season having its own self-contained story. Season 14 is the long-running show’s last.

He was running a successful L.A. club, but once he added a male stripping dance troupe, it turned heads: This was something that hadn’t been seen before in America. Banerjee’s story from there, however, takes some dark and ominous turns, leading to murder. Kumail Nanjiani (Eternals, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Silicon Valley) tackles the lead role with vigor and commitment, bringing the mogul to life on screen.

In a not-too-distant future, after an environmental disaster causes widespread infertility, an extremist cult in the United States stages a coup, establishing the totalitarian state of Gilead. In this new society, women are relegated to subservient roles, and due to the low birth rate, a class of women called “handmaids” is conscripted to bear children for the leaders of Gilead. The protagonist of The Handmaid’s Tale, Offred (Elisabeth Moss), is one such woman, forced to have ritualized sex with Commander Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes) to provide him and his wife with a child. Living without any rights or power, Offred tries to survive each day, hoping to one day be free. The Handmaid’s Tale is a masterful adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s grim novel of the same name, with excellent performances and gorgeous, oft-disturbing scene composition.

The streaming world is awash in introspective, character-driven comedies, and while Ramy’s format will feel familiar, it adds a new wrinkle. The eponymous character (played by comedian Ramy Youssef) isn’t just a millennial dealing with the awkward ups and downs of work and dating in the 21st century. He’s also a Muslim and trying to lead a moral life in amoral times. Ramy wades in ambiguities and its protagonist’s hypocrisies and hang-ups; for instance, he’s uncomfortable kissing a Muslim woman on their first date, but fine hooking up with non-Muslims, for which the former chews him out. It’s a show with a unique perspective and a willingness to present its characters in an unflattering light.

Donald Glover is a modern Renaissance man: Since launching a comedy career via skits circulated on YouTube, he has branched into rapping, acting, and even showrunning, with the remarkable, surreal comedy-drama Atlanta. The show follows a dogged college dropout named Earn (Glover), who sleeps at his on/off-again girlfriend’s place and struggles to provide for their child. When he learns that his cousin Alfred is starting to achieve success as a rapper — stage name: Paper Boi — Earn becomes his manager. There is not much of an overarching plot to Atlanta. Most episodes play out like short films, and the show experiments with a variety of stories and formats — one standout episode is presented entirely as an episode of a local interview show, complete with fake commercials. Daring and frequently poignant, Atlanta is one of the most exciting shows on TV today.

Hailing from FX, The Americans originally aired for six seasons from 2013 to 2018. Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys star as Soviet KGB intelligence officers posing as American suburbanites, living with their two kids just outside of Washington. The spy drama was universally praised for its writing, characters, and acting. Set in the ‘80s, it covers stories surrounding the Ronald Reagan administration, examining issues from the perspectives of both the KGB and the FBI. Contributing to its sense of realism is the fact that the show was created by Joe Weisberg, a former CIA officer. Named by many critics as being among their favorite TV dramas of all time, it’s worth a watch, even years after the show concluded its run.

The series is set in the same world as the 2018 teen drama Love, Simon, which starred Nick Robinson as the title character. Robinson is now a producer and narrator, helping Victor through his struggles and providing guidance.

With three seasons of the comedy-drama under its belt, the show takes a sci-fi-inspired look at life 400 years into the future. The crew aboard the U.S.S. Orville, an exploratory ship, sets out to see what’s going on in the universe and discover new things (and dangers) in outer space. But as they discover new life, they also have their own complicated lives and personal relationships to deal with. Expect typical Macfarlane humor, social commentary, and parodies that any fan of his other works will enjoy.

Inspired by the true-crime bestseller of the same name by Jon Krakauer, a young woman and her baby daughter were murdered in 1984. As Pyre looks into what happened, he uncovers truths about the Latter-day Saints (LDS) religion and how unwavering faith by other devout followers may have played a role in the killings. The seven-episode season has been well received by early reviewers, who describe it as a stunning look at one’s crisis of faith.

By 2015, she was was the richest self-made billionaire in America, but after the validity of her tech came under fire, it all fell apart, leading to her indictment and eventual conviction in January of this year for wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Based on the Rebecca Jarvis ABC Audio podcast of the same name, The Dropout stars Amanda Seyfried as Holmes and follows the story of how she and Theranos COO Ramesh Balwani (Naveen Andrews) misled and defrauded investors. If you’re curious about the story, The Dropout beautifully dramatizes events that Rolling Stone’s Alan Sepinwall says “would feel too absurd to be true if we didn’t already know otherwise.”

These days, coming-of-age stories are a dime a dozen, but few of them are as novel — or cringeworthy — as PEN15. Co-creators Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle star as 13-year-old versions of themselves, allowing the series to address topics and situations many would consider taboo if performed by younger lead actors. The two find their footing in hormone-fueled incidents involving masturbation and AOL Instant Messenger, not to mention everyday encounters with parents, principals, and the kind of insult-spewing preteens you can expect to find at any middle school. It’s all served with a heavy dose of ’90s-inspired nostalgia, meaning if the show’s no-holds-barred look at adolescence isn’t enough, perhaps the constant references to the Spice Girls will be. The final episodes of season 2, which will be the show’s last, are now streaming.

Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, and Charlie Day — who also created and write the show — star as three best friends who kind of hate each other, while Kaitlin Olson and Danny DeVito round out the cast as the infamous Dee and Frank. The group often finds itself in some of the most absurd situations as the members push into the uncharted and irreverent comedic territory for which the show is well known, usually as a result of their own botched schemes. The show is on its 15th season, though it has already been renewed through to season 18.

The show follows David Haller (Dan Stevens), a man who, having heard voices in his head since a young age, starts the series in a psychiatric hospital. His official diagnosis is schizophrenia, but after meeting another patient, Syd Barrett (Rachel Keller), who can switch bodies with anyone she touches, he discovers that the voices in his head are a sign of his own latent powers. Fitting for a show about a man who may or may not be insane, Legion is a hallucinogenic ride, with psychedelic visuals and format-breaking sequences that keep David — and the viewer — confused as to what is real.

This space-western has been lauded as one of the best anime series ever made, with a memorable cast and compelling story, featuring one of the most iconic final scenes ever.

The best fantasy movies on Netflix right now
Kate Beckinsale and Hugh Jackman in Van Helsing.

Finding great fantasy movies on Netflix is a bit of a fantasy in and of itself. The king of the streamers neglects this category, and it also relies heavily on Universal Pictures' catalog to bail out its shortcomings. That's why it's The Scorpion King and Van Helsing's turn to be on this list while Conan the Barbarian waits for yet another Netflix return.

The Scorpion King and Van Helsing aren't bad movies, but fantasy fans deserve a better selection from Netflix than films that are two decades old. Even this month's third addition, The Covenant, is closing in on 20 years. Netflix has made some original fantasy movies of its own, but not lately. For the most part, the best fantasy movies on Netflix are pretty stagnant. But when something new arrives, we'll be here to add it to the list.
