Top 10 TV Miniseries
VOICE OVER: Rebecca Brayton
Written by Jordan Ruimy.
This TV medium allows for slow and detailed storytelling and complex characters. Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 TV miniseries. For this list, we're looking at TV series that were created with a pre-decided number of episodes in mind – meaning that these series were self-contained and not meant to be renewed. Shows like “True Detective” have not been included because, while it has been categorized by some as a miniseries, the number of episodes this show will air has yet to be determined, so it does not qualify.
