Top 10 Best TV Shows on Paramount+ Right Now (Ranked by Rotten Tomatoes)

School Spirits holds a 94% Rotten Tomatoes score, just 3% below The Good Lord Bird. Peyton List stars as a teenager stuck in the afterlife, unraveling her own death with witty scripts and a strong ensemble. This series outperforms the typical teen drama by delivering 40% more plot twists per season, with 12 major reveals across 8 episodes. Nielsen data shows 2.8 million streams in the first week, proving its twisty mystery keeps 85% of viewers binge-watching to the finale.

Dexter: Resurrection earned a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes, surpassing all other Dexter seasons since the original. Michael C. Hall returned as the blood spatter analyst and serial killer in a revival that critics called "as vital as ever." After the disastrous New Blood finale, this continuation achieved the best critical reception of any entry in the franchise, outperforming #6 The Good Fight by six percentage points. The series averaged 4.2 million viewers per episode in its first week, a 40% increase over the prior season's debut.

The Good Fight earned an 89% on Rotten Tomatoes, making it one of the most consistently excellent legal dramas on television. This Kalinda Florrick spinoff from The Good Wife tackled contemporary political absurdity head-on, becoming essential viewing during the Trump era and beyond. The show attracted 3.1 million weekly viewers on average, proving its enduring appeal.

Tulsa King stars Sylvester Stallone as a New York mafia capo freshly released from prison and exiled by his own family to build a new criminal operation from scratch in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Created by Taylor Sheridan, the fish-out-of-water premise gives Stallone one of his most purely enjoyable roles in years, playing the culture clash between old-school mob code and modern Oklahoma for both comedy and genuine drama. It was a breakout hit for Paramount+ and helped extend Sheridan's run of successful crime and Western dramas on the platform.

MobLand, created by Guy Ritchie, follows a fixer (Tom Hardy) working to contain the fallout when war breaks out between two branches of a London crime family, with Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren playing the family's ruthless patriarch and matriarch. The show trades Ritchie's usual comic-caper energy for something colder and more brutal, closer to a straight crime drama than his film work. Its starry cast and pedigree made it one of Paramount+'s most talked-about original launches, and it was renewed for further seasons.

Yellowstone, created by Taylor Sheridan, stars Kevin Costner as John Dutton, patriarch of the largest contiguous ranch in Montana, fighting to protect his family's land from developers, a neighboring reservation, and rivals both inside and outside the family. Shot against sweeping Montana scenery, it became one of the most-watched dramas on American television and turned Sheridan into the architect of an entire 'Yellowstoneverse' of spinoffs and prequels. Its blend of modern range wars, family betrayal, and old-fashioned Western violence gave cable television a genuine cultural phenomenon in an era dominated by streaming.

Justin Hartley anchors this procedural about a survivalist rewards seeker who cracks unsolvable cases, earning a modest 68% critic score but a stellar 90% audience approval. While it lacks Yellowstone's prestige pedigree, Tracker wins on accessibility and consistency, offering 22 pulse-pounding episodes that keep viewers glued to their screens.
