10 Best TV Shows Of 2023 (So Far)

10. Yellowjackets (Season 2)

Back in 2021, the world was enraptured by the story of a crashed airplane and the embattled survivors whose lives were forever changed by its aftermath, and this year Yellowjackets has proven its magnificent first season wasn't a one-off.

Slipping through time to explore how the survivors have been moulded and haunted by their pasts, the season is a twisty, horrible exercise in tension and performance, directed with high thrills and anchored by sublime work from stars Melanie Lynskey, Juliette Lewis, Christina Ricci, Sophie Thatcher and Jasmin Savoy-Brown.

Admittedly, its high character count and time-bending tricks mean it can sometimes get a touch ahead of itself, but Yellowjackets sophomore effort nonetheless cements the series as a modern classic, with enough unexpected twists, pathos, heartbreak and narrative innovation to keep you clambering back for more.

Wherever it goes next -- and season three is already on the way! -- I for one will be there on day one.
