Rupert Grint's best TV show is one you've probably never seen

Following the release of the final Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, the Golden Trio went on to scoop up some great roles, even if none could ever be as big as the Wizarding World.

Though Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) took some time to find his footing post-Potter, he's since starred in quirky films like Swiss Army Man and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story and the beloved TV show Miracle Workers, in addition to his work on the stage. Emma Watson (Hermione) has been more selective since hanging up her Gryffindor robes, but she's still appeared in great movies like Little Women and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. As for Rupert Grint (Ron), he's starred in a handful of shows that have gone under the radar. One, titled Servant, is totally under-watched and deserves more attention.

With an impressive 90% on Rotten Tomatoes, horror series Servant received critical acclaim during its four-season run, though I don't know many people who watched it, especially not Potterheads. Though I will warn you; this isn't a show for children. Servant is rated TV-MA for violence, gore, sex, nudity, profanity, alcohol, drugs, and frightening scenes. If you're okay with that, then let me explain to you why you should be watching this show!

Rupert Grint is fantastic in Apple TV+'s Servant

Created by Tony Basgallop with M. Night Shyamalan serving as showrunner, Servant debuted in 2019. The series follows a married couple, Dorothy and Sean, living in Philadelphia. Dorothy is a TV news reporter, while Sean is a professional chef who stays at home. Though on paper they seem to have a happy marriage, it doesn't take long for the truth to start coming out. Servant opens up with the couple hiring a nanny named Leanne to take care of their baby Jericho. But this baby isn't actually a living, breathing baby — it's a doll. And while Leanne seems like a sheltered, innocent young woman, her troubled past begins to haunt her as we wonder how she ends up here.

The cast of Servant is very strong, including Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under) as Dorothy, Toby Kebbell (Black Mirror) as Sean, Nell Tiger Free (The First Omen) as Leanne, and Grint as Dorothy's chaotic younger brother Julian. Though Dorothy does her best to put on the guise of a happy, successful family, she can't just ignore her problems forever. Julian is there to give her a reality check, while also always being on her side for support. Julian typically serves as comedic relief throughout Servant. Although he's an alcoholic and has issues of his own, he's known to bring quick wit and sarcasm to every conversation and is genuinely hilarious.

Though Julian is suspicious of Leanne at first, they eventually form a close bond as he tries to figure out her deal. He's both in love with her and afraid of her. Julian also has a close relationship with Sean, especially when it comes to confronting Dorothy about a traumatic event in her life she's forced herself to forget. Servant is everything you want out of a horror show — twisty mystery, unpredictable moments, scares, and even humor. We also get great character development which keeps you rooting for everyone even when they're being terrible. Julian is an absolute highlight of the show, which might not be true if Grint wasn't playing him.

Throughout its four seasons, Servant always feels fresh and surprising. If you're a fan of the Harry Potter franchise and are comfortable with the horror genre, I'd definitely recommend checking it out. Not only is Grint great in it, but it's just overall an awesome show. Check out the trailer for the first season below to take a closer look at what to expect:
