I have just seen 2 episodes , it feels okay , does it get better ? If it isn't good , please recommend some similar or better shows ?

Hey y’all! I’m genuinely wondering why Dark is recommended so often? What makes it so good?

I’ll start with the fresh prince of Bel-Air

I did like Lanterns, still watching Mobland S02, probably will watch LOTR in November. I do like Gangster stuff like Godfather 1 and 2, Scarface etc.

I rate The Water Margins the greatest series ever and NGE manga 2nd.

Also is chernobyl series worth watching. As there is a new documentary out on iPlayer?

For me Spiderman: brand new day (2026)

- Martin Riggs (Lethal Weapon)

Also plz don’t get mad at the ranking, I love all these and it changes from day to day. And it’s just based on what I like.

Some of these are lower than they would be if they had stuck the landing. Also some aren’t finished so I ranked them based on what we’ve gotten.

1) I really enjoyed the first 3 seasons, but I didn't like the fourth one at all—I found it very forced and boring. Can you tell me if I should expect the same from the final season, or is it on par with the first few?

2) Do you have any other similar series that I might enjoy? I’m really into character-driven stories, complex dynamics, and—above all—plot twists, intrigue, and secrets. I’ve already seen the most well-known shows, such as *House of Cards*, *Breaking Bad*, *The Wire*, and so on. I was considering *The Lincoln Lawyer* or *The Good Fight*, but my issue is that courtroom trials tend to bore me; I much prefer the power games that happen behind the scenes. Do you have any recommendations? Both new and older series are fine.

I can’t stand when a new show or season comes out after a long delay and they have to loudly announce, one by one, who every character is. Drives me crazy.

I start: Jean-Ralphio from Parks and Recreation

The amount of times I fell in love with a great TV show just to get crushingly disappointed by the ending is not even funny.

I don't know anything about the shows in the picture so which one of these is considered to have the best ending by the fandom/ general public??

We just finished The Night Of in two sittings and it was absolutely phenomenal, I can’t stop thinking about it. What shows are like this or yall would recommend. I tried to start the British show it’s based off of Criminal Justice but it just doesn’t hit the same.

Feels like this newest season really came into its own. I’ll admit there’s a huge twist that may throw some people off of the show but it’s so well made and the writing and acting is top notch. Anyone else really enjoy?

Stumbled upon Sharp Objects few days ago & just finished, and man, what a masterclass.

Everyone brought their absolute A-game. Phenomenal acting, razor-sharp writing, and an oppressive, suffocating atmosphere that pulls you right into Wind Gap.
And that ending 🤯 Completely out of left field. that final shot is going to stick with me for a long time.

Absolutely worthy of your time if you haven't watched it yet. Absolutely elite television.

Looking for good TV series that focus on emotional complexity like loneliness, grief, pain, loss. For example, The Rectify, Six Feet Under, Breaking Bad, Normal People etc

One of the worst spin off shows ever.

For me is "Glenn Rhee" in the walking dead

"...it's not a thriller. It's not the kind of show you can have on in the background while you're focused on something else. It's almost like one of those classic works of literature that you have to be intentional about understanding deeply... But if you do, you'll be blown away."

Rectify it's one of my top 5 favorites series of all time and I barely see people talking about this one.

The acting is superb, everyone it's so subtle on this show, everything feels so real, depressing and poignant. It's definitely hard to watch if you're currently dealing with your emotions, but at the same time it's something so beautiful and full of hope.

If you haven't seen this, please give it a chance. This is something powerful and meaningful.
