All these dramas are 100% rated on Rotten Tomatoes and available to stream right now
If you were asked to guess a list of HBO shows that have earned themselves a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, we imagine it would go something like this:
«The Sopranos, definitely. Game Of Thrones. Maybe Succession? The Wire, that’s a classic. Then maybe something newer, Mare of Easttown?»
All fantastic shows. All worthy guesses. All deserve a spot on the best shows on Max. But all wrong in this case. Their ratings are high, mostly in the ’90s, but not flawless.
There are, however, an array of shows which do boast a perfect rating. They may not be household names, but we’ve gathered together six of them here for you.
So, the next time you’re on Max, looking for a new show to dig into, make sure to keep all of these in mind…Hacks
You might know Jean Smart as a scene stealer from her supporting roles in Frasier, Watchmen, and Mare of Easttown, but in Max’s drama Hacks she’s front and center, and she has wowed critics.
Smart plays Deborah Vance, a once wildly successful stand-up comedian, who is shocked when she learns that the head of the Las Vegas casino where she performs wants to pare back her performance schedule.
Desperate to win over new fans and keep herself relevant, Smart is reluctantly introduced to Hannah Einbinder’s Ava, a young comedy writer who’s found herself unable to find work after being fired from her job over an insensitive tweet.
As you might imagine, the two don’t get along initially, but as both Vance’s material and her crowds begin to improve, they find a way of working together.
Critics loved Smart and Einbinder and the show’s witty sensibilities, across both its first and second seasons. Luckily for us all, a third season is on the way. Miss Sherlock
There have been many, many takes on Arthur Conan Doyle’s defining creation, Sherlock Holmes. Some are critical darlings, like Benedict Cumberbatch’s take on the character, Sherlock, and others, like 2018’s disastrous Holmes and Watson, were given a deserved kicking.
But, only one has a perfect rating, and that is Miss Sherlock.
