Take The Spill's monthly pop culture quiz here and test your knowledge!

We're halfway through 2026, and we've watched everything so you don't have to it. So it's time to crown the best new shows so far, and we're not holding back.

We start off with the Ryan Murphy drama that's turned Paul Anthony Kelly into the internet's collective crush and earned more rewatches than we're willing to admit. Then jump straight into the regency spinoff that we're convinced will make an entire generation obsess over the "ugly sister."
Then we dive into a show that might just be a career defining moment for Elle Fanning, unpacking a series with a curse so hectic it's taken over Google, and admitting Mindy Kaling's latest sitcom almost lost us in episode one before winning us back completely.
