IMDb Picks: The Best Movies & Shows of 202016 of 47
"I May Destroy You" | Available to Stream on HBO Max
The topic of sexual assualt is a tough sell as entertainment, but "I May Destroy You" captivated me in a way that other great 2020 shows somehow couldn't even come close. It's a jolt of creative energy, and I never anticipated which direction the story would go from week to week. Creator/star Michaela Coel's voice is confrontational, funny, and insightful, but this never once feels like the kind of show "you really should watch" because it's on President Barack Obama's favorites list. — James
