Well, I don’t know which streaming services you subscribe to these days, but I’m going to try to cover a lot of bases here with four different 100% critic scored series on Rotten Tomatoes that have either arrived within the week or are about to. It’s a good era for TV, as there are plenty of 90%+ series as well, but you want perfect? We’ve got perfect:
Blood of Zeus
Netflix’s Blood of Zeus (100%): I wrote this up yesterday, but it’s worth mentioning here again. It’s a quite bloody and sexy animated series focused on Greek mythology that has maintained perfect 100% scores across multiple seasons, a true rarity in the genre. Here’s the synopsis:
“Chronicles the illegitimate son of Zeus, a young man tasked with saving heaven and earth despite the interference of a vengeful goddess and her monstrous forces.”
Poker Face
Peacock’s Poker Face (100%): This was one of the first shows that put Peacock on the map, albeit that service hasn’t been performing ideally since. The Natasha Lyonne mystery series has landed a perfect 100% score for season 2, airing well after its January 2023 initial release, and I’m unclear about that delay. Here’s the synopsis:
“A mystery-of-the-week series following Charlie Cale, who has an extraordinary ability to determine when someone is lying. She hits the road in her Plymouth Barracuda and with every stop encounters a new cast of characters and strange crimes she can’t help but solve.”
Careme
Apple TV+’s Carême (100%): This is no doubt the one that the fewest people have heard of, both because it’s on Apple TV+, the service that refuses to advertise anything but severance, but also because of its unique focus. Here’s the synopsis:
“The world’s first celebrity chef, Antonin Carême rises to the height of culinary stardom in Napoleon’s Europe; his talent attracts the attention of politicians who use him as a spy for France.”
The Narrow Road to the Deep North
Amazon Prime Video’s The Narrow Road to the Deep North (100%): I’ve covered this before, but it’s a great war story adapting an excellent book. It’s a start turn for Euphoria’s Jacob Elordi who has been on a great run as of late. Here’s the synopsis:
“The story of Dorrigo Evans, an army surgeon whose short but forbidden affair with his uncle’s wife sustains and haunts him through his darkest days in a Thai-Burmese prisoner of war camp in WWII.”
These are far from the only 100% scored shows on these streaming services, but they are the newest, and you have almost certainly not seen them yet (a few aren’t out for a few more days). One catch here is that compared to other shows they have a low number of reviews in, but hey, they’re all good. Enjoy.
