The 7 TV shows that have a 100% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes in 2018 by Travis Clark on Aug 21, 2018, 9:12 AM Advertisement
 Television continues to deliver one great show after another this year, but there are a select few that have come out on top with critics. Seven shows this year — either returning with new seasons or brand new — have garnered the coveted 100% critic score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. And there are a few surprises. Some excellent series failed to make the cut, like AMC's "Better Call Saul" season 4 and Netflix's "Glow" season 2, both with 98%, and HBO's "Sharp Objects" with 93%. The ones that did manage the perfect 100% range from a crime anthology to a long-running sci-fi, and three are currently available to stream on Netflix. Below are seven TV shows with a 100% Rotten Tomatoes critic score in 2018: SEE ALSO: The 6 movies that have a 100% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes in 2018 "The Bold Type" — Season 2 How to watch: Available at the Freeform website with an account and on Hulu Description: "The Bold Type gives us a glimpse into the outrageous lives of the young women working at the nation's top women's magazine, "Scarlet." Jane, Kat, and Sutton are three best friends working at the magazine's headquarters in New York while also trying to navigate their careers, identities, and individual voices in a sea of intimidating leaders. This next generation of unapologetically fierce working women is primed to take on the world and smash the patriarchy—one selfie at a time." What the critics said: "The Bold Type dramatizes the lives of its three leads without turning any of the women into caricatures. The newsroom and New York they inhabit aren’t the world’s most accurate depictions of life in digital media, but they’re also far from fanciful. The show is still finding its footing, and so none of its main characters have become personality avatars, the way Sex and the City’s Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte each came to stand for a particular kind of New York City woman. But the first episodes of Season 2 are promising ..." — Hannah Giorgis, The Atlantic
"Cobra Kai" — Season 1 How to watch: Available on YouTube Red Description: "Thirty years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, a down-and-out Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) seeks redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai karate dojo, reigniting his rivalry with a now successful Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), who has been struggling to maintain balance in his life without the guidance of his mentor, Mr. Miyagi." What the critics said: "'Cobra Kai' is extremely entertaining, but even more so if you loved "The Karate Kid" (and its sequels) growing up. Zabka and Macchio are all in with the reprisal of their iconic roles and that's really the hook. Some of the stuff will certainly go over your head if you weren't into the movie, but YouTube is hoping that the popularity of the movie over decades has enough passionate fans to launch this series (and YouTube) into the streaming zeitgeist." — Jason Guerrasio, Business Insider
"Dear White People" — Season 2 How to watch: Available on Netflix Description: "Students of color navigate the daily slights and slippery politics of life at an Ivy League college." What the critics said: "Weighing personal satisfaction with national priorities isn’t easy, but 'Dear White People' blends them in such a way to illustrate how they’re linked. Each part is powerful because each part is honest, even when what it builds toward is an uncertain future." — Ben Travers, Indiewire
