From witchcraft to bending, this list proves one thing: Shipka's versatility is no act.

9. "The Silence" (Rotten Tomatoes: 29%)

9 Best Kiernan Shipka Movies and TV Shows, Ranked by Rotten Tomatoes - image 1

In a world where silence is survival, we follow a family navigating a planet invaded by ancient creatures who hunt humans through sound. Ally, our deaf protagonist, played by Shipka, brings a unique perspective to the chaos.

It's a game of hide and don't speak! Though it treads familiar grounds (sound familiar, eh?), Shipka's performance is a silent roar amidst the cacophony.


8. "Carriers" (Rotten Tomatoes: 66%)

Dystopia rings a bell? Strap in for a post-apocalyptic road trip! A deadly pandemic (too real?) ravages the world, and four friends traverse the U.S. to find sanctuary. Amongst them, young Jodie, bearing witness to the fall of humanity.

Moral choices, survival instincts, and the looming shadow of death paint a bleak canvas. Yet, at the core, it's about the lengths one would go to protect loved ones. Tense, huh?


7. "The Blackcoat's Daughter" (Rotten Tomatoes: 75%)

Empty hallways, snow-covered landscapes, and... demonic possession? Sounds like a recipe for horror. In a desolate prep school, two girls face strange occurrences during winter break.

Kat, played by our beloved Kiernan, displays unnerving behavior, making one question – is it loneliness or something more sinister? Darkness seeps into the school's corners, weaving a chilling narrative. It's not just the cold that'll give you shivers.


6. "Let It Snow" (Rotten Tomatoes: 81%)

Picture this: A quaint town blanketed in snow, a group of teenagers, and love stories intertwining like Christmas lights. Angie, or "The Duke", navigates the shaky terrains of friendship and potential love with her best bud.

The plots are as unpredictable as a snowstorm, and by the end, hearts are as warm as cocoa. A feel-good flick with a sprinkle of teen angst? Check!


5. "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina" (Rotten Tomatoes: 82%)

Dive deep into a pot of bubbling teenage angst, with a sprinkle of witchcraft, and what do you get? Sabrina Spellman! Half-witch, half-mortal, our fiery redhead juggles dark baptisms, love triangles, and high school drama in Greendale. But hey, she's not your average damsel.

With demon exorcisms and an occasional trip to hell, it's as wickedly delightful as biting into a forbidden apple. Who knew the path of night could be so... entertaining?


4. "The Legend of Korra" (Rotten Tomatoes: 89%)

Brush off your bending skills and step into the Avatar world once again! Although Shipka had a brief role as Jinora, a young airbender, her impact is far from minimal.

With spiritual insights and a pursuit of balance, Jinora's character arcs beautifully in a world of elements. Air, fire, water, earth – and Shipka's voice acting? Pure gold.


3. "When Marnie Was There" (Rotten Tomatoes: 92%)

Whisked away to a realm where reality waltzes with fantasy, we meet Anna – a young girl who's a little out of tune with the world. Now, a lonely mansion, a serene marsh, and a mysterious blonde-haired girl named Marnie? Intrigued yet?

As the two become fast friends, Anna discovers there’s more to Marnie than meets the eye. The lines between memory, dream, and reality blur. Shipka lends her voice to Marnie in the English version, bringing an otherworldly charm.


2. "Mad Men" (Rotten Tomatoes: 94%)

So, we've got 1960s New York, a glass of whiskey, and a whirlwind of cigarette smoke. Welcome to Sterling Cooper, where ads are kings and secrets lurk in polished office corners. But wait, there's Sally Draper, Don's precocious daughter.

Amidst tales of ad-men and their shenanigans, Sally's growth from innocent child to disillusioned teen steals the limelight. Navigating a fractured family, she mirrors the societal upheavals of the time. An old-school gem, isn't it?


1. "Feud: Bette and Joan" (Rotten Tomatoes: 95%)

Curtains up! A tale of two screen queens – Bette Davis and Joan Crawford – as they spar and spat their way through the filming of "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?".

But wait, who's that precocious kid peeking behind the curtains? B.D. Hyman, Bette's daughter, played to perfection by Shipka. Through her eyes, we witness the unravelling of Tinseltown's biggest feud. Lights, camera, catfight!
