The Best Murder Mysteries and Crime Dramas to Watch Right Now

One reason horror movies are so great is that they make for a perfect distraction from anything that might be on your mind. And if you're anything like us, you could surely use a good distraction right about now.

No one does a good murder mystery show quite like the Brits. Sure, we've had plenty of compelling series come along in the United States, like Mindhunter, The Night Of, and even Pretty Little Liars, but there's just something about the atmosphere of a crisp morning in the U.K. that really drives home the narrative over there.

Some people learn about history in school, which is fine if you're into that sort of thing. But for those of you who consider yourselves a Netflix intellectual, there's no better way to fill your head with the knowledge of important events of yesteryear than through the stylish and fictionalized accounts of TV's hottest scripted shows.

This might be a controversial take, but not everyone is made of money! We can't all shell out money every month for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+ and/or whatever other subscriptions are fighting for our hard-earned cash these days. This is why I have scoured the depths of the World Wide Web to find the best shows you can stream legally, for free, on the internet, and there are way more than you think — as long as you don't mind putting up with some ads now and then.

Binge-watching a new TV show is a chance to put the real world on hold, and isn't that something we could all use more of right about now? For those who want to indulge in a little escapism, nothing beats the fantastical (and often physically impossible) worlds of science-fiction.

As if it weren't enough that he's already given us one of the best rap albums of 2020 with Big Conspiracy, London's J Hus dropped off what seems to be the first installment of a new video series earlier this week.

It is an age-old question, or at least a streaming age old question: What should I watch on Netflix? If you are among the those stuck at home for the foreseeable future and are looking for some fun, youthful, adventures to take your mind off what's going on outside — this is the list for you. From rom-coms to soapy thrillers, TV Guide has compiled a list of the best young adult movies to watch on Netflix.

Much like its genre neighbor science-fiction, supernatural shows allow viewers to escape into a world full of the unknown. Sometimes, they're scary and full of things that go bump in the night; at others, they're funny and inject a nice dose of levity into stressful situations; and often, they're full of hunky teenagers who are also werewolves.

The superhero genre has experienced an unprecedented boom in the last 10 years (thank you, Marvel), and we're not just talking about the big blockbusters in theaters. TV has taken a big bite out of the superpower pie, and there are now more shows about superheroes than ever before.

We could all use a little more love and laughter these days. So why not watch a romantic comedy? With social distancing keeping many people at home, now is a great time to revisit some of the classics.

It is a universal fact the 1990s was one of the best decades in cinematic history.
