17 of Our Favorite TV Dramas of the Past Decade

There isn't anything quite like the first season of The Terror. The idea of following a Victorian expedition in search of the Northwest Passage seems more fitting as the subject of a historical documentary. Instead, the show offers a gripping tale of isolation and despair. It has a spectacular cast (you will see Jared Harris again in this list) and a perfect atmosphere of paranoia and claustrophobia. Combined with an alien-like setting, The Terror manages to create terror not from cheap scares but by exploring the deepest, darkest spaces of the human mind.
