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

Kaitlin Olson and Daniel Sunjata 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.

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 Wednesday, Nov. 6.

BEST SHOWS IN THE HULU TOP 10

'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez'

By the end of 2012, Aaron Hernandez was 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.

But while Gronkowski is now a future Hall of Famer, things took a bad turn for Hernandez after 2012. Behind the scenes, he had a reputation for a hot temper. That temper ultimately ended his career during the 2013 offseason when 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 after nine episodes, we're firmly in the "fall" part of the story. 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 so is its spin-off series "9-1-1: Lone Star," which is currently in its fifth and final season.

Like the mothership show, this iteration of "9-1-1" 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.
