01 Four friends stalked by an anonymous figure who seems to know their darkest secrets.
12 Best Teen Drama Series
By Vlad Zakh · April 11, 2026
My So-Called Life and The O.C. set the earnest, hyper-articulate template, Gossip Girl made it glossier, and Euphoria took the genre somewhere darker and more visually ambitious. Pretty Little Liars has four friends stalked by someone who knows their secrets, Heartstopper is a gentle romance between two British schoolboys, Sex Education has a teenager with a knack for advice starting an underground clinic, and One Tree Hill pits two half-brothers on a basketball court. Skins, Freaks and Geeks, Riverdale and Never Have I Ever round out the list.
