Hulu is one of the best streaming services, in no small part due to its excellent library of shows. The Emmys proved that you need Hulu if you're a TV lover, with Hulu shows "Shogun" and "The Bear" taking home the most awards and several others scoring nominations.

But with so many great TV shows available, it can be a bit of a struggle to figure out what to watch. Luckily, Hulu has a top 15 shows and movies collection that shows you what’s trending on the platform.

After going through what's popular this week, we've narrowed that list down to three of Hulu's current top 10 shows that stand out from the rest.Unsurprisingly, Hulu original "Only Murders in the Building" makes an appearance. It's joined by a new ABC crime drama starring "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" star Kaitlin Olson and a new true crime docuseries about an NFL player who lost control.

So without further ado, here are the three shows worth watching right now in Hulu’s top 10 shows. If you're looking for more to watch, make sure to check out our guide to Hulu's top movies.

This is based on the Hulu top 15 movies and shows as of Friday, Sept. 27.

"High Potential" is a new ABC crime drama starring Kaitlin Olson as Morgan, a cleaning lady for the Los Angeles Police Department. She's also brilliant, with a high IQ and expansive knowledge.

One day, LAPD Major Crimes head Captain Selena (Judy Reyes) picks up on Morgan's talents and hires her as a consultant, much to the chagrin of Detective Karadec (Daniel Sunjata). Fans of crime procedurals will definitely want to check out this comedy-drama, watching as Morgan balances her current life as a single mother of three with her new life as LAPD's newest consultant.

'Only Murders in the Building'

Watch On

With season 4 in full swing and season 3 receiving 21 Emmy nominations earlier this year, it's no surprise that "Only Murders in the Building" is in the Hulu top 10. It'll probably be a while before it's gone from the top 10, let alone the top 15.

The show is centered around the trio of Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mable (Selena Gomez), three strangers whose obsession with true crime brings them together when a crime shocks their building. Season 4 has them headed to Hollywood to investigate the shocking events from the end of season 3, joining a cast loaded with stars, including Meryl Streep returning as Loretta Durkin.

If you're new to this Hulu murder mystery comedy, start today with season 1 episode 1 so you can catch up with season 4 before it's over.

'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez'

American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez Limited Series Trailer - YouTubeHulu top 10 shows — here's the 3 worth watching right now (4)

Watch On

Aaron Hernandez made his name as part of one of the best tight end duos in NFL history. He and fellow tight end Rob Gronkowski were a dominant force on the New England Patriots from 2010 to 2012. Before that, he was a college football champion under Urban Meyer at Florida.

But behind the scenes, it seems that things weren't great. He had a poor reputation with teammates and a hot temper that could cause trouble. It ultimately ended his career during the 2013 offseason when he was arrested for the murder of Odin Loyd. “American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez” is a dramatized retelling of Hernandez’s rise and eventual fall, and while it's based on true events don’t expect 100% adherence to the truth in this FX limited series.
