Every Nicole Kidman TV Show, Ranked


The movie star has become one of the most prolific A-listers on television, with a new show nearly every year. We rank them all.

Consider Kidman’s character, Julia Edwards, who starts out the story in the middle of a divorce from her husband, Pyke, with whom she has an adopted daughter, Mary, who had been given up 17 years earlier by Robin Griffin, the Sydney detective played by Elisabeth Moss, who serves as the show’s main protagonist. In the world of Special Ops: Lioness, Meade is a part of the American superstructure: a senior-ranking CIA official who’s married to a billionaire (so don’t worry, she’s still rich) and particularly adept at working senators — all while she manages Joe, a hard-charging operative played by Zoe Saldaña. Her coiffed wig is a sublime oceanic wave of blonde, and her mode in this series is that of powerful matriarch, someone who, with the disposition of ice and steel, spends a great deal of time trying to contain the public fallout of a murder that threatens to ruin her family and her reputation.
