Hulu top 10 shows — here's the 3 worth watching right now

Nathan Fillion as John Nolan, the oldest rookie in the LAPD in "The Rookie" S6.

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, I found there was a lot to choose from in Hulu's current top 10 shows. "Paradise" continues to dominate the list of Hulu's trending shows, which is no surprise. Of the 17 TV shows I've watched this year, it's currently second on my list and has produced two of the best TV episodes I've seen all year. But there are a few other shows worth a watch, including a new true crime docuseries.

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, February 28.

BEST SHOWS IN THE HULU TOP 10

'How I Escaped My Cult'

"The Rookie" has been a network TV stalwart. This ABC crime drama stars Nathan Fillion as John Nolan, who starts the show as a 45-year-old newly divorced man from Pennsylvania. After helping police officers stop a local bank robbery in his Pennsylvania town he decides to pursue a career as a police officer.

Just one problem — he can't do that at home because he's too old. However, he can pursue his calling in Los Angeles, as the LAPD will let a 45-year-old become a rookie officer.

Now several seasons later, he's moved up in the LAPD and is training new rookies. Season 7 is in full swing, with episode 8 just dropping on Hulu this week. So check it out now, and catch up with the rest of the series on Hulu if you haven't already.

'Paradise'

"Paradise" stars Sterling K. Brown as Secret Service Special Agent Xavier Collins. He's assigned to the detail of U.S. President Cal Bradford's (James Marsden) job that goes wrong when President Bradford is murdered in his own home.

That's the sort of twist you could end a season on, but "Paradise" gives it away in the trailer. I've now watched the entire season so far and I can tell you for a fact that Bradford's death isn't even close to the biggest twist of the show so far. It's not even the biggest twist in that episode.

Fans of action thrillers like "The Night Agent," action crime shows like "Reacher" or even a mystery show like "Severance" should start watching now before next week's season finale.

'Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby Franke'

Ruby Franke wanted to show the world her happy family, so she turned to YouTube and started a vlog. It quickly turned into a massive success, with 2.5 million subscribers at its peak.

But all wasn't as it seemed at home, and as tensions started to build off-camera, the family turned to counselor Jodi Hildebrandt for help. Unfortunately, that took things from bad to worse, with Hildebrandt ultimately convincing Franke that her children were possessed.

Hulu's shocking three-part docuseries "Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby Franke" goes in-depth with the family, examining the allegations of abuse that ultimately put Franke and Hildebrandt behind bars. Stream the entire series now.
