15 Best TV Shows Of 2021 (So Far)
11. Sweet Tooth
A recent addition to the Netflix Original fold, Jim Mickle's Sweet Tooth takes place in a world where a deadly virus has killed large swathes of the planet's population and led to many babies to be born part-human, part-animal.
In this changed world, half-deer hybrid Gus (Christian Convery) braves the dangers in his path in search for his lost mother. Along the way, he befriends a reluctant survivor called Tommy Jepperd (Nonso Anozie) and finds conflict with the surviving humans who want him dead.
Emotionally twisting and constantly endearing, Sweet Tooth is the perfect coming-of-age fantasy series that is best watched with the whole family. It balances its action, scares and heart remarkably well, and the core duo of Convery and Anozie make for formidably talented leads.
Like all great fantasy shows, this gem promises to only get bigger and more confident in time, but even so it's got off to a phenomenal start that begs to be seen.
