Shadow and Bone (Netflix)
Best Sci-Fi & Fantasy Series 2021. After nearly a decade of TV dominance (in no small part thanks to Game of Thrones), HBO has been unseated by Netflix’s Sweet Tooth, a cute, quirky, and smartly written fantasy. And apologies to the amazing Expanse fandom, as the resurrected series was only able to secure a second-place finish for Season 5.

Players of Riot Games' League of Legends were beyond excited for Arcane, the long in the works prequel animated Netflix series. But mainstream viewers were blindsided by what Fortiche Studios and Riot Games unleashed with this gorgeously animated, scored, and written epic about two sisters separated by bad luck, class divisions and manipulation. No...
The brilliant Robert and Michelle King, of The Good Fight and Evil fame, did some cable moonlighting this year with their COVID/zombie/comedy/horror thriller, The Bite. The fact that it's a Spectrum Original means only their subscribers had access to this series, but that doesn't mean it wasn't great. Using the lockdown as a series arc, the action ...
Chuckyproves that some nostalgia plays with classic IP are extremely worth taking. SYFY's new horror series, which recently concluded its terrifying (and, at times, hilarious) first season takes everything fans love about our favorite overalls-wearing murder doll and puts it through a progressive lens never before seen on television. The series min...
The second season of Evil really turned the proverbial screws on the Catholic Church possession assessors, Dr. Kristen Bouchard (Katja Herbers), seminarian David Acosta (Mike Colter) and tech expert Ben Shakir (Aasif Mandvi). With agent of demonic chaos Leland Townsend (Michael Emerson) forever taunting the trio and their loved ones, the mythology ...
It's never been one of the buzziest projects at Apple TV+, and doesn't make headlines the way The Morning Show or Ted Lasso might, but Ronald D. Moore's alt-history space adventure remained one of the best sci-fi shows on television during its second season in 2021. After using much of its first season laying the groundwork for this "What If?" past...
Though the average TV fan likely best knows Robert Kirkman as the comic mastermind behind AMC's long-running The Walking Dead franchise – but he also spent the past two decades building one heck of an ambitious superhero universe, too. Amazon turned Kirkman's expansive Invincible comic book series, which ran from 2003-2018, into an ambitious animat...
The Marvel Studios shows on Disney+ have already taken some big swings, from a more traditional action adventure in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, to a genre-busting mystery in WandaVision. But from the perspective of MCU stakes, Loki arguably represents the most consequential Disney+ series to date — and thankfully it was also very, very good....
Midnight Mass, writer/director Mike Flanagan's original, limited Netflix series, was a moving, scary and often disturbing exploration of the isolationism of religious zealotry. Set within the tiny fishing community of Crockett Island, Riley Flynn (Zach Gilford) returns home shamed by his four year prison stint after being convicted for DUI and kill...
You could make the case that Mythic Quest doesn't really belong on SYFY WIRE's list of the best genre shows of the year. Take away the titular MMORPG and the Apple TV+ series is really just a workplace comedy. Well, too bad — it's on this list anyway, in large part because its second season improved on the first, radically changing the status quo f...
Chris Sheridan's adaptation of the Resident Alien comic book was the sleeper delight of 2021. In his first series lead, Alan Tudyk takes on multiple roles, including an alien assigned to destroy Earth. Unfortunately, he crash lands instead and has to assimilate into human society while he seeks the broken parts of his spaceship. He kills Dr. Harry ...
