THE TEN HOTTEST SHOWS TO WATCH RIGHT NOW

-

1. MARE OF EASTTOWN

Kate Winslet’s most recent starring role, as Mare Sheehan, a detective looking into the murder of a young girl, is one of the greatest in her stellar career.

2. NOBODY

Hutch (Bob Odenkirk) is a seemingly ordinary officer worker – a nobody – forced to deal with some unsavoury characters with extreme violence. Great action scenes and a satisfying watch.

3. THE INVISIBLE MAN

There are some real scares in this, loosely inspired by the H.G. Wells novel. Elisabeth Moss believes she is being stalked by her supposedly dead abusive boyfriend, who is invisible.

4. BIG LITTLE LIES

As if Reese Witherspoo­n (below), Nicole Kidman and Laura Dern weren’t starry enough, Meryl Streep joined the second season of this mystery drama about a wealthy community in California.

5. THE NIGHT OF

In this US remake of a British series, Naz (Riz Ahmed), a young PakistaniA­merican, wakes up after a wild night to find the woman he spent it with has been murdered and he has no memory of what happened. Did he do it?

6. VEEP

Created by Armando Iannucci, this hilarious and ingenious satire follows the day-to-day life and work of Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), the Vice President of the US.

7. MILDRED PIERCE

TV version of the classic film, with Kate Winslet as a housewife and mother in the Depression era who kicks out her husband and tries to set up her own business.

8. SILICON VALLEY

Offbeat comedy about a tech startup and the social inadequate­s who work for it – alpha coders but, at best, beta humans.

9. TRUE DETECTIVE

The first series is the one to watch. Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughe­y are the feuding Louisiana detectives on the trail of a ritualisti­c murderer.

10. HOUSE OF CARDS

Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) is a ruthless, Machiavell­ian politician, and Claire (Robin Wright) is his scheming wife. The pair will stop at nothing in their lust for power in this deliciousl­y dark drama.
