Piece ” has emerged as the highest-rated TV show of
2024 to date, according to IMDb user ratings . The Toei Animation
series, which first aired in 1999 and has more than 1,100 episodes, has secured
the top spot with an impressive 9.0 out of 10 rating .
This achievement highlights the
continued popularity and relevance of “One Piece” over more than two decades. The
series follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy , a young
pirate whose dream is to become the Pirate King by finding the legendary
treasure known as One Piece . With his peculiar ability to
stretch like rubber, obtained after eating a Devil Fruit ,
Luffy and his diverse crew face challenges and enemies in a journey full of
action, humor and emotional moments.
“One Piece”’s ability to evolve and
maintain viewers’ interest is one of the key reasons for its success. Over
the years, the series has delved into complex themes such as freedom, justice,
and perseverance, all while developing a vast, rich universe full of memorable
characters.
Recently, “One Piece” has gained even
more attention with the production of a live-action series that has generated
great expectations among fans and new viewers. This
adaptation, developed by Netflix, promises to offer a new perspective on the
beloved story, staying true to its essence while taking advantage of the
possibilities of the live format.
IMDb's 2024 lineup also includes a variety of shows
from different genres, from historical dramas to superhero series and
critically acclaimed comedies. Among the most notable shows are “ Shōgun ”,
“ X-Men '97 ”, “ The Bear ”, “ Fallout ”,
“ The Boys ”, “ House of the Dragon ”,

Of these, six shows have received Emmy Award
nominations, further reinforcing their popularity among audiences and critics
alike. Furthermore, the presence of animated series such as “One Piece”
and “X-Men '97” in the top 10 underlines the growing influence of the animated
genre on the current television landscape.
To qualify for the list of best-rated programs of
2024, the series had to have premiered their season between January 1 and June
30, 2024 and meet a minimum threshold of votes during that period. Although
the rankings may change as more shows are released throughout the year, the
current list serves as a sample of what could appear on the top lists at the
end of the year.
