But a lot of great shows can fall through the cracks, and that’s what happened to a superhero series that premiered on Fox in 2017: The Gifted. As a spin-off of X-Men, it did well in terms of viewers and critical reception, but the rise of streaming services ultimately led to its cancellation.
Although modern thrillers are trying hard, many fans still consider films from the genre’s classic era to be superior.

I absolutely love the Straw Hat Pirates – they’re more like family than just a crew! Everyone would seriously risk everything for each other, which is amazing. While a lot of fans joke about romantic pairings, it looks like those relationships will stay purely platonic, no matter how much Sanji tries to woo Nami and Robin! It’s just part of what makes their dynamic so fun and heartwarming.
