Miniseries have made a significant resurgence in recent years, despite it appearing that the TV business had abandoned them in the 2000s. And that’s a good thing, because there’s nothing quite as pleasurable as binge-watching a substantial miniseries. The nicest aspect about these short-form shows is that miniseries may be about anything and can tell a fascinating story from beginning to end in a single season. Want proof? Check out our list of the top miniseries that are available to watch right now on Hulu, just one of the numerous streaming services available.
Hulu has a tonne of limited series that you’re guaranteed to enjoy, whether you enjoy twisty crime dramas like “The Act,” adaptations of Jane Austen books like “Pride and Prejudice,” or twisty, contemporary dramas that clearly require a season two like “Little Fires Everywhere” (and devour in record time). The Patient, a 2022 miniseries starring Steve Carell and Domhnall Gleeson, depicts a murderous man who kidnaps a psychiatrist (Carell) and begs him to help suppress his need to kill. Hulu is constantly adding new episodes to its library.
All right? There’s more where that came from, I suppose. These 16 miniseries are available to watch on Hulu.

“Catch-22”
Unknown factors may have contributed to the lack of interest in Hulu’s original miniseries adaptation of Joseph Heller’s famous book “Catch-22” when it debuted on the streaming service in 2019. But this dark comedy about a World War II soldier who can’t ask to be withdrawn from duty without demonstrating his sanity or keep flying risky missions without being labelled insane goes into the emotional toll of war with honesty and a sense of humour that makes it well worth watching. The cast’s celebrity power, which includes George Clooney, Christopher Abbott, Kyle Chandler, and Hugh Laurie, also helps.

“High Fidelity”
“High Fidelity” was initially intended to be a continuous anthology series, but despite Hulu’s decision to not extend the programme for a second season, it continues to be a romantic comedy with a modern edge that is dryly amusing.

You simply haven’t lived until you’ve seen Colin Firth in the role of Mr. Darcy.
