The 29 HBO shows that critics and audiences both agree are wonderful
HBO
But HBO has also released a lot of prestige shows that critics love, but normal people don't. And the other way around.
When audiences and critics agree, however, you know the show is definitely worth your time. This is especially relevant now that old shows are available to binge-watch on HBO Now or HBO Go.
So which shows do both groups agree on? There's "Game of Thrones," of course, but there are also 28 more that make the cut.
We ranked these universally beloved HBO shows according to their scores on Rotten Tomatoes, which aggregates critic reviews and audience scores and assigns each show a score. We chose shows with a combined score average of over 80 percent, then ranked them by those averages (with audience score breaking any ties).
