As Netflix’s library of original TV shows continues to expand at a wild pace, it’s worthwhile to take stock of all that the service currently offers.
With popular shows like “Stranger Things” and “Big Mouth,” Netflix has hit the mark with both critics and audiences.
But the streaming service has also had its share of critical flops, including the Marvel series “Iron Fist” and the high-school dramedy “Insatiable.”
To figure out which Netflix original series are worth your time, we turned to the reviews aggregator Rotten Tomatoes to rank the shows by their composite critical reception (ties were broken by their Rotten Tomatoes audience scores).
We excluded any show that did not have enough reviews to receive a designation of "Fresh" or "Rotten." We also did not include children's shows, talk shows, docuseries, sketch comedies, or shows that Netflix renewed after they had been canceled at other networks.
