Hulu top 10 shows — here's the 3 worth watching right now

Hulu

Kaitlin Olson in ABC's "High Potential".

Hulu is one of the best streaming services, in no small part due to its excellent library of shows. The Emmys proved that you need Hulu if you're a TV lover, with Hulu shows "Shogun" and "The Bear" taking home the most awards while several others scored nominations.

But with so many great TV shows available, it can be a bit of a struggle to figure out what to watch. Luckily, Hulu has a top 15 shows and movies collection that shows you what’s trending on the platform.

After reviewing this week's popular shows, we've narrowed the list down to three standouts from Hulu's current top 10 shows. Dramas dominate the top 10 right now. There are crime dramas, true crime dramas and procedural dramas starring Rob Lowe. Basically, if you like a drama, you're going to have a good time.

So without further ado, here are the three shows worth watching right now in Hulu’s top 10 shows. If you're looking for more to watch, check out our guide to Hulu's top movies.

This is based on the Hulu top 15 movies and shows as of Friday, Nov. 15.

BEST SHOWS IN THE HULU TOP 10

'High Potential'

"High Potential" has been a surprise hit this fall, and Kaitlin Olson's performance as Morgan has been a winner for ABC. Morgan is a single mother working as a cleaning lady for the Los Angeles Police Department. Her IQ ultimately lands her a consulting gig working with LAPD Major Crimes Detective Karadec (Daniel Sunjata) and Captain Selena (Judy Reyes).

Episode 7 just dropped earlier this week and has Morgan taking her child Ava to work. For most parents, this would be a fun thing, but when you work at a police precinct, things can get dangerous fast.

'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez'

Aaron Hernandez was once considered one of the best receiving tight ends in the NFL. He and fellow tight end Rob Gronkowski were a dominant force on the New England Patriots until the end of the 2012 season.

But while Gronkowski is now a future Hall of Famer, things took a bad turn for Hernandez after that season. Behind the scenes, his hot temper was getting him in trouble and ultimately ended his career. During the 2013 offseason, he was arrested for the murder of Odin Loyd and things only got worse from there.

“American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez” is a dramatized retelling of Hernandez’s rise and eventual fall — and all 10 episodes are now streaming on Hulu. While this show is based on true events don’t expect 100% adherence to the truth in this FX limited series.

'9-1-1: Lone Star'

Ryan Murphy's "9-1-1" is a major hit, consistently in the Hulu top 15. But while it had the top spot earlier this week, its spin-off series "9-1-1: Lone Star" is now the higher trending show.

Like in "9-1-1," this show focuses on the lives of first responders. But in "9-1-1: Lone Star," the show has moved to Austin, Texas, and focuses on a new cast of characters. Rob Lowe, a firefighter captain who has come to Texas after rebuilding the team in New York that he lost on September 11, 2001, leads the call sheet of this ensemble cast. It's currently in its fifth and final season and episode 7 just hit Hulu this week.
