The Best TV Shows of 2026 (So Far)
A retrospective look at our favorite TV shows of 2026, from adult animation to R. R. Martin’s fantasy series.

The Vampire Lestat

After five decades since its publication, Film and TV aren’t quite done milking Anne Rice’s 1976 series The Vampire Chronicles, and we’re so glad. After Interview With the Vampire came out in 2022 and ran for two seasons, based on her first book, The Vampire Lestat continues the story.

The season gives an in-depth backstory to Lestat, its main character, an actor-turned-vampire. Did I mention it’s also a musical? And a good one at that. Fans absolutely love the songs the show is churning out, enough that Lestat performed in concert in New York City this June.

One thing fans love about this series is that the more queer elements baked into the original story are made overtly clear—not swept under the rug or written off.
