Beginning on September 21, a list of the top 100 TV shows of the 21st century will be revealed. This list is curated based on the votes from over 500 television professionals from Hollywood and beyond. Stay updated as this exciting countdown unfolds.

This initiative was undertaken by The New York Times, aiming to highlight outstanding TV shows that debuted post-January 1, 2000. Creators, actors, writers, and various craftspeople participated in the selection process. Each of them chose their top ten based on personal criteria including their favorites, most rewatched, or most artistically ambitious.

Starting on September 21, the list will reveal 20 titles daily, commencing with number 100. These rankings include unexpected choices that may surprise even the editors. The series concludes on September 25 with the unveiling of the number one show of the 21st century.
