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 to three standouts from Hulu's current top 10 shows. Top of the list is "Paradise," a new political thriller that our own Martin Shore calls "compelling" and "packed with jaw-dropping reveals." Then there are two other shows worthy of attention that have regularly made their way into Hulu's top 15 list.

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 Friday, January 29.

BEST SHOWS IN THE HULU TOP 10

'Paradise'

"Paradise" stars Sterling K. Brown as Special Agent Xavier Collins. He's a Secret Service Agent assigned to the U.S. President's protection detail, which is a tough job even in the best circumstances. But things quickly go to the worst-case scenario when President Cal Bradford (James Marsden) is found dead, bleeding on the floor in his residence.

From that moment on, Collins is thrown into a conspiracy surrounded by the ultra-wealthy and with shocking twists. Our own Martin Shore loved it in his review of the TV show, calling it his "newest TV obsession." So check it out now to see if you become just as obsessed with "Paradise."

'High Potential'

"High Potential" has been going strong for ABC and has already been renewed for a second. The crime drama stars Kaitlin Olson as Morgan, a single mother working for the Los Angeles Police Department as a cleaning lady. But despite her menial job, her high level of intelligence is spotted by LAPD Captain Selena (Judy Reyes). The captain hires Morgan as a consultant for LAPD Major Crimes working with Detective Karadec (Daniel Sunjata) — against Karadec's wishes.

If you've been hesitant to commit to this show because it's new, you now have 11 episodes to binge and a season 2 to look forward to, so there's no point waiting further. Episode 11 just dropped, and has an old case coming back to haunt the LAPD. Check it out now before episode 12 is released next week.

'Doc'

This medical drama is based on a shocking true story. "Doc," Fox's newest hit drama, is adapted from the Italian drama "Doc – Nelle tue mani." That show, in turn, is based on the real-life story of an Italian doctor who forgot 12 years of his life following a car accident.

In "Doc" though, Dr. Amy Larsen (Molly Parker) only forgets the last eight years of her life. Still, that's enough to cause some serious problems. Dr. Larsen is the chief of internal medicine at a fictional hospital in Minneapolis, Minnesota and the memory loss impacts her work. It also causes her to forget her messy divorce, which brings its own drama.
