Better call saul
Presumed Innocent is finishing out it’s first season. Really great so far.
I kinda liked Your Honor.
I liked it, first season best.
i did too they should make more
Sopranos
My time to shine has come!
“The killing” with Joel Kinnaman and Meirelle Enos. Two detectives try to solve a murder case.
“The fall” with Jamie Dornan and Gillian Anderson. A father with a dark and unsettling history.
“Mare of Easttown” with Kate Winslet and Evan Peters. Local detective invetigates a complicated case.
“Inside man” with Stanley Tucci. A detective gets help from an unexpected person.
Sorry for the crappy overviews.
Those are some of my favorites and I have watched them more than once.
“The killing”
Consider watching the Danish original instead though :)
Oh I will look it up for sure! Thanks for the suggestion.
Seconded, it’s superb.
you’ve always shined my friend!
Dude, this looks like exactly what I was looking for as I’ve never watched any of these and that is rare. Thank you even included a high level plot overview as well, lemmy can’t be matched!
You are in for a treat!
I am glad I could share something interesting with you.
As a fan of all those shows (except the last which I haven’t seen yet, thanks for the tip!) this guy nails it. Those are all great picks! I will add I really liked season 1 of ‘The Sinner’ was excellent. I can’t say I loved the rest of the series as much as season 1.
Mindhunter, True Detective season one
Matthew Mcconaughey and Woody Harrelson were great in it! The last season with Jodie Foster was good too IMO, but the rest was just blah.
I quite enjoyed season 4 of True Detective as well. If you don’t compare it to the lightning in a bottle that was Season 1, anyway
damn loved true detective will check out mindhunter, thanks
Mindhunter is the same calibre, sad we didn’t get more seasons
IKR?! I read the book some time ago and I was like, man this part here would have made such a great episode.
The Wire, The Sopranos
Others have recommended several of my suggestions but here are ones that haven’t been mentioned (in order of my own preference):
CRIME:
Bosch
Line of Duty
Bloodline
Longmire
The Killing
DRAMA:
Rectify
Dude Rectify started slow but seems like mid season 2 might start to be picking up 👌🏻 thanks again that was one I’d never heard of.
man, bloodline was so good wish they made more of that one! appreciate it!
Bloodline drove home for me the fact that Florida is a very sweaty place.
The Hannibal series maintained my interest throughout, largely carried by Mads Mikkelsen
Plus the visuals and ambience creation were superb IMO. Mads Mikkelsen is such a vesratile actor. I especially liked his Hannibal.
OP: I am babbling all over tour post brcausd I am so excited to find interesting shows, moviese and people in it. Sorry for the rambling.
ALIAS. “She’s a grad student! She’s a spy! She’s a grad student! She’s a spy!”
For true crime, there’s a documentary on Netflix about Robert Durst called Jinxed that is a wild ride. Tldw: multimillionaire who got away with multiple murders, but there’s a major twist at the end.
“The Americans” — spy drama about Soviet deep undercover spies living in suburban Washington and their FBI neighbour
“Homeland” — CIA accuses a returned prisoner of war to be turned islamic terrorist
“Berlin Station” — CIA station in Berlin faces repeating leaks. First season starts off boring but picks up speed fast
Damn…the Americans… I remember that was on FX I think. That’s one I’ve slept on and need to binge asap! Thanks 🙏🏻
Look for ‘The Recruit.’ One season only [so far] Young lawyer gets hired by the CIA. Manages to mix office politics with national politics.
Seen an episode or two of this, not a fan
Movies based on Stieg Larssons books.
Spot on! Very dark and dramatic, I remember reading the Millenium series when it first came out and then went to the theater to watch The girl with the dragon tattoo, the original european version with Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander. What a great actress!
If you’re never seen Columbo, you’re in for a treat.
Luther
Oh my absolute favorite detective. I remember waiting a freaking year when they announced “Midnight sun” to come out as the series finale. Great british TV!
