10 Best TV Shows Of 2023 (So Far)
1. Succession (Season 4)
But of course, the best show of the year so far has to be Succession. Don't look so surprised, you knew this was coming. Four seasons in, and the towering HBO drama has outdone itself with a swan song for the ages.
Following the Roy family and their crafty foes and associates as their world and reputations implode around them, Succession's final chapter is its best yet, ramping up the tension to an almost unbearable degree. It pulls no punches, and in the process remains as frustrating and entertainingly exhausting as ever.
And that's just the writing! Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Matthew Macfadyen have (somehow) managed to outdo themselves in their respective roles, whilst Jeremy Strong and James Cromwell in particular have sold every inch of Jesse Armstrong's devastatingly subversive scripts.
Succession is the best show of 2023 so far, and honestly it's not too close. It's one of the best shows ever made, period, and it'll be deeply missed.
