Spanning decades of entertainment, it serves as a primer for anyone looking to take a deep dive into the best of the best when it comes to the small screen. What&#8217;s especially useful about the list is that it doesn&#8217;t remain static \u2014 new series make the list periodically, and in 2025, four new shows made the cut.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Two of the new entries are &#8220;When Life Gives You Tangerines,&#8221;\u00a0a Netflix K-drama, and &#8220;Takopi&#8217;s Original Sin,&#8221; a sci-fi anime production that&#8217;s currently on Crunchyroll. The other pair of inductees have something very specific in common: their body count. Both shows, &#8220;The Pitt&#8221;\u00a0and &#8220;Dexter:\u00a0Resurrection,&#8221; are a high risk for those with weak stomachs. They&#8217;re incredibly liberal in the amount of blood and guts that spill in nearly every episode. Tread carefully with your viewing choices if exposed human cavities aren&#8217;t your cup of tea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read more: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/36840\/shocking-movie-endings\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Most Shocking Movie Endings;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Most Shocking Movie Endings<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">The Pitt shows the bloody side of the ER<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Dr. Robby holds a metal coffee mug with his eyebrows raised on The Pitt &#8211; HBO<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Although television has never been short of hospital dramas to fill the airwaves, &#8220;The Pitt&#8221; tapped into something new. Rather than having each episode reflect a different day in the ER \u2014 as we&#8217;ve seen on other medical shows, including star Noah Wyle&#8217;s aptly named previous hit, &#8220;ER&#8221; \u2014 the first season of the show covers a single shift. &#8220;The Pitt&#8221; stars Wyle as Dr. Michael &#8220;Robby&#8221;\u00a0Robinavitch, the senior attending physician in an understaffed, underfunded Pittsburgh emergency room.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As Dr. Robby attempts to make it through one of the toughest shifts of his career \u2014 it&#8217;s the anniversary of the death of his mentor, not to mention the day of a mass casualty event that almost brings the hospital to its knees \u2014 things in this ER get pretty nasty. You know all the stuff that network TV medical shows can&#8217;t or won&#8217;t show? Well, &#8220;The Pitt&#8221; is on HBO, so those rules don&#8217;t apply. The series isn&#8217;t afraid to reveal all of the blood and guts of a real day in the emergency room.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Dexter: Resurrection pulls no punches<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Dexter holding a butcher's knife over his head\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/pNExAaMzOm5bJz_iEYqw1A--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/looper_828\/ca37eeb85f6de51543877d6364eb9d8c\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Dexter holding a butcher&#8217;s knife over his head &#8211; Paramount+<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Dexter: Resurrection&#8221; centers around its titular serial killer, Dexter Morgan (played by Michael C. Hall), so it makes sense that it wouldn&#8217;t fall too short in the gore department. In fact, the series goes all the way in, featuring some bloody moments that even longtime\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/457697\/36-of-people-think-this-dexter-moment-went-too-far\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:fans thought went too far;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">fans thought went too far<\/a>. Although the original &#8220;Dexter&#8221; went off the air in 2013, audiences have proven reluctant to let go of their favorite noble sociopath, even though\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/172049\/why-michael-c-hall-was-never-the-same-after-dexter\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:life for Hall has never been the same since;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">life for Hall has never been the same since<\/a>. We&#8217;ve had a continuing parade of different &#8220;Dexter&#8221; shows, including &#8220;Dexter: New Blood,&#8221; &#8220;Dexter: Original Sin,&#8221; and now &#8220;Dexter: Resurrection.&#8221; (If you need a recap before watching the newest series, don&#8217;t worry \u2014 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/1896955\/recap-before-dexter-resurrection\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:we've got &quot;Resurrection&quot; covered;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">we&#8217;ve got &#8220;Resurrection&#8221; covered<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The latest entry in the franchise comes hot on the heels of &#8220;Dexter: New Blood,&#8221;\u00a0kicking off just a few months after that show&#8217;s finale. In it, Dexter shakes off his recent brush with mortality, instead focusing all of his attention on tracking down his son, Harrison (Jack Alcott), in New York City. The plots may differ between iterations, but one thing doesn&#8217;t change in Dexter Morgan&#8217;s thankfully fictional world: The franchise&#8217;s willingness to get downright gruesome with its set pieces. Come for the moral ambiguity, stay for all the bad guys who find their lives ended in ever-disturbing ways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you enjoyed this article, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.looper.com\/newsletter-syndicated\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:sign up to our free newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">sign up to our free newsletter<\/a> for the biggest movie and TV news delivered straight to your inbox.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/1992080\/gory-2025-shows-imdb-top-250-list-the-pitt-dexter-resurrection\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:original article on Looper;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">original article on Looper<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although IMDb&#8217;s functionality has faltered a bit in recent years, one aspect of the long-running movie website that&#8217;s still going strong is its list of the top 250 television series of all time.
