    Mr. Robot for live-action. definitely avoid looking anything up about it, there are spoilers everywhere and it’s better to go in fresh. there’s no good trailers for it really but if you watch the first six-minute opening scene… by the end of it you’ll know whether or not the show is for you. and if you like it you will probably REALLY wanna keep watching. they go out of their way to get the tech stuff accurate and it’s pretty much a cyberpunk story set in the present day. but also so much more deeper and psychological than you’d expect. my favorite show of all time, no contest. the whole thing was planned in advance and it SHOWS. it’s more like one long very good movie than a television series quality-wise

    and Bojack Horseman for animation. i’d also recommend avoiding spoilers for this. thematically, it gets off to a slow start pretending to be just another standard adult animation Family Guy-esque clone before it slowly morphs over the course of season 1 into a meta deconstruction of those sorts of shows and goes off the rails to truly hit its dramatic stride. and once it starts going it never lets up. it similarly hits very hard and gets pretty dark
