Norsemen- absolutely hysterical show really really loved it
After Life - dark, funny, and poignant
Dota Dragons Blood - anime, really intense, great storytelling, has one of the best episodes ive ever seen in any show
Lupin - brilliantly written crime show, plot and acting are superb. One of the best ive seen for a very lont time
Star Trek, any of them but Discovery, but don’t start with The Original Series
Doctor Who, but start with the new 2005 series.
Worthy mentions: The Orville, Andromeda.
Halt and Catch Fire The Leftovers Station 11
Andor is the best piece of Star Wars media and the best TV show I’ve ever seen. You don’t need to like Star Wars. I don’t know if seeing Star Wars would even increase your enjoyment. I think seeing Rogue One would probably be good but otherwise just jump in. No space wizards or laser swords or destiny or whatever. It’s so adult and grounded. I can’t believe Disney let them make this.

What a show. The first marine seige on the lunar mining camp is as cool as it gets. Tracy Stevens is a badass.

Are you British? And/or have you listened to any British people speak for any length of time?
Then you’ll have heard jokes and phrases repeated (knowingly or unknowingly) from Only Fools and Horses.
Do you want to know what the British think of our European neighbours?
Then you’ll want to watch 'Allo 'Allo!
I would absolutely think twice or thrice about recommending GoT. In fact, I’ve already recommended some friends to not watch it. Some amazing episodes, perhaps some of the best scenes ever seen on TV, and by far the most upsetting, spit-in-the-face, negligent final season from any show I’ve ever seen. Umbrella Academy wishes it had as bad an ending as GoT, if only for the infamy.
Anyway 3 Body Problem looks really promising and I’m sure the creators, whoever they are, will absolutely nail it…
Fuck it. Im a dude in my 40s and I’ll cop to it: most of Rick and Morty is great. And I’m basically a Jerry.
I also love the show Alone, except season 12 sucked.
Taskmaster UK is fantastic.
MASH. I love every season of that show. So good.
Ja, Herr Flick!
- Dark – perfect if you like internal consistency and thinking along. Use the website and talk about it with a friend or partner between episodes
- True Detective season 1 – just dripping vibes, absolutely perfect cinema
- The Good Place – a philosophy crash course that’s really fun. Absolutely lovable characters and great twists
- Andor – a gritty depiction of life under fascism. Tense, heart wrenching, powerful. Nobody’s safe (except the titular character I guess)
