8 Best TV Shows That Passed You By In 2017

6. The Sinner

The Sinner Jessica Biel

Even the star power of Jessica Biel couldn't prevent The Sinner from slipping under most radars, but word of mouth helped this compelling murder-mystery draw in some of the viewership it deserved.

The USA Network drama sees Biel take on the role of a wife and mother who seemingly kills an innocent man in broad daylight in front of countless onlookers when a murderous impulse overcomes her, and that's episode one.

In a bold move, this is a murder story that gets the whodunit out of the way right off the bat. The mystery lies entirely in the killer's motive, and that's a conundrum that will keep you gripped until it's solved at the end of the first season.

Biel, who also has a producer credit on the show, has joined a growing list of actresses who have successfully transitioned from the big to the small screen, and missing her performance in this show really is a sin.
