Atlanta
This acclaimed, multiple Golden Globe Award-winning comedy drama created, co-written, produced by and starring musician and actor Donald Glover follows the lives of Earnest 'Earn' Marks (Glover), a young Princeton dropout with a two-year-old daughter, and his rapper cousin Alfred 'Paper Boi' Miles (Brian Tyree Henry), who break into Atlanta's music scene and try to get their lives off the ground. Their opposing views on art, commerce, success and race make their quest anything but smooth-sailing. Glover is brilliant and the show is, as says, "as excellent as it is eccentric". (In case you were wondering, the ratings website gives the show's seasons 1, 2 and 4 98% and 96% for season 3 on the Tomatometer; they're right – the show is quality season after season.)
