My Top 10 Marvel TV Shows 2026

For this list, I'm ranking individual seasons where I think a specific season deserves its own spot. That's why you'll see both Loki and Daredevil appear more than once. As always, this is based on my personal experience and the shows that I enjoyed the most.

Here are my top 10 Marvel TV shows and seasons of 2026.

10. Werewolf by Night

Werewolf by Night was a refreshing change from the standard MCU formula.

It's much shorter than a traditional Marvel series, but that's part of what makes it work. The special has a completely different visual style and atmosphere, leaning into classic horror and monster-movie influences.

I really appreciated Marvel experimenting with something different instead of trying to make every project feel exactly the same. It's creepy, stylish, fun, and surprisingly unique within the MCU.

For me, Werewolf by Night was a refreshing little break from the usual Marvel formula.

9. Ms. Marvel

I found Ms. Marvel to be a really charming introduction to Kamala Khan. Kamala is an incredibly endearing and lovable character, and I enjoyed watching her discover what it means to become a superhero while also dealing with her family, friends, school, and identity.

I also really appreciated how creative the show could be visually. The way it incorporated comic-book-style elements into the storytelling gave the series its own identity and helped it stand out from other MCU projects.

Kamala also represents a relatively new generation of Marvel characters, so I enjoyed seeing her introduced to a much wider audience.

That said, I felt the writing became weaker as the show progressed, particularly in the later episodes. Even so, I still enjoyed the series overall and thought Kamala was a great addition to the MCU.

8. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

I really enjoyed The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, especially because of the chemistry between Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan.

Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes have completely different personalities, and watching them interact gave the show a great buddy-action dynamic. Their relationship sometimes feels less like two superheroes working together and more like two brothers who constantly annoy each other. That sibling-like energy was one of my favorite parts of the series.

I also liked how the show continued Sam's journey toward becoming Captain America and explored what that symbol means to him.

My biggest issue was the ending. It felt rushed, which unfortunately is something I've felt about quite a few of the MCU's Phase Four television projects.

Despite that, I still had a lot of fun watching it, and the performances from Mackie and Stan carried a lot of the show for me.

7. Agatha All Along

I'll admit that I didn't expect to enjoy Agatha All Along as much as I did.

I already found Agatha Harkness surprisingly entertaining when she appeared as the villain in WandaVision, so I was curious to see what Marvel would do with her character when she became the focus of her own series. And I ended up really enjoying it.

The show had strong writing, interesting characters, and a lot of creative elements that helped it stand apart from other MCU projects. I particularly enjoyed the mysterious atmosphere and the way the story gradually revealed more about its characters.

Agatha herself is also a huge reason why the show works for me. She's not the typical heroic Marvel protagonist, which makes watching her journey much more interesting.

It was a pleasant surprise and a show I ended up enjoying much more than I expected.

6. Loki — Season 1

Loki Season 1 was one of the MCU's most interesting experiments with the concept of the multiverse.

The show took Loki, a character we already knew very well, and placed him in a completely different situation. Through the TVA, variants, and the concept of alternate timelines, the series opened up a huge number of possibilities for the MCU.

But what I appreciated most was Loki himself.

The series gave him room to develop beyond the villain we originally met in the early MCU movies. Watching him confront different versions of himself and question the choices he had made gave the character a lot more depth.

The show also introduced concepts that would become increasingly important to the larger MCU.

For me, Loki Season 1 was both entertaining and important to the direction Marvel was taking with the multiverse.

5. WandaVision

WandaVision was one of the most mysterious MCU shows when it first premiered.

At the beginning, I had no idea what was actually happening. Each episode presented a strange new version of Wanda and Vision's life, and I enjoyed trying to figure out what was behind everything.

But the mystery wasn't the only thing that made the show work. The emotional core of the story was Wanda and Vision. The series explored Wanda's grief and her inability to accept losing the person she loved, which gave the story much more emotional weight than I initially expected.

I also loved how creatively the show played with different television eras and styles.

And beyond its own story, WandaVision also helped set up elements that would continue into future MCU projects.

It was strange, creative, emotional, and unlike anything Marvel had done before.

4. Moon Knight

Moon Knight was another MCU show that felt very different from the standard Marvel formula.

I really enjoyed the show's exploration of Egyptian mythology and how those mythological elements were incorporated into the superhero story.

But the biggest reason I enjoyed it was Oscar Isaac. His performance brought a lot of personality and emotional depth to the character, particularly through the different identities and personalities within Marc Spector's story.

The show also had a darker and more mysterious atmosphere than many other MCU projects, which made it stand out.

I went into Moon Knight curious about the character, and I came away really enjoying what Marvel did with him.

3. Loki — Season 2

I enjoyed Loki Season 2 even more because it continued the multiverse story while taking Loki's character in an increasingly interesting direction.

What I particularly appreciated was the writing. The show deals with complicated ideas involving time, timelines, and the future of the universe, but it still keeps the emotional story at the center.

Loki's evolution is also one of the strongest character arcs in the MCU for me. The Loki we see here is very different from the arrogant villain who first appeared in Thor. Watching him gradually become someone willing to sacrifice himself for others gave his story a powerful emotional payoff.

I also really liked how important the series became to the larger future of the MCU.

It wasn't just another Marvel show—it had major consequences for the multiverse storyline.

2. Daredevil — Season 3

Daredevil Season 3 was another incredible season of television.

What I particularly enjoyed was the Kingpin storyline. Wilson Fisk remains one of the most compelling villains in Marvel's television universe, and his presence gives the season a strong sense of tension.

The season also puts Matt Murdock through an incredibly difficult period, both physically and emotionally. I loved watching him struggle, fall, and eventually find his way back to becoming Daredevil.

The grounded approach is also a major reason why I love this version of Daredevil. The fights feel brutal and physical rather than like characters simply throwing CGI-powered attacks at each other.

Season 3 delivered an intense story and some fantastic performances, making it one of my favorite seasons of Marvel television.

1. Daredevil — Season 1

And at number one is Daredevil Season 1. For me, this is the best Marvel television season I've watched.

From the very first episode, the show felt different from most superhero television. It was darker, more grounded, and much more focused on character development and street-level crime. Every episode felt memorable, and the cast was fantastic. Charlie Cox completely embodied Matt Murdock, while the supporting cast gave the world around him a lot of depth.

But the biggest reason this season stands out to me is the action. The hand-to-hand combat is some of the best I've seen in superhero television. The fights feel physical, exhausting, and painful. Instead of relying entirely on superpowers and CGI, the show makes you feel every punch.

And then there are the famous long-take fight sequences that made Daredevil's combat style so memorable.

But the action isn't the only reason I put it at number one. The characters, atmosphere, storytelling, performances, and grounded approach all come together to create something that feels genuinely special.

Daredevil Season 1 gave me an unforgettable Marvel television experience, and that's why it takes the number one spot on my list.
