Presumed Innocent is finishing out its first season. Really great so far.

zcd ,

Mindhunter, True Detective season one

Truffle ,

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.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

damn loved true detective will check out mindhunter, thanks

zcd ,

Mindhunter is the same calibre, sad we didn’t get more seasons

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

yes can’t wait to check it out! i guess it’s better than none tho

Truffle ,

IKR?! I read the book some time ago and I was like, man this part here would have made such a great episode.

MorrisonMotel6 ,

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

jdawgtydawg ,

Sopranos

Blizzard ,

The Wire, The Sopranos

Truffle ,

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.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

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!

Truffle ,

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.

Truffle ,

The sinner season 1 was great! Jessica Biel surprised me with her character but it’s the little sister that does it for me. Have you watched “Sharp objects” with Amy Adams? I love how gritty and sordid it is. Kinda slow at first butvthen it picks up quickly for a riveting ending.

“The killing”

Consider watching the Danish original instead though :)

Truffle ,

Oh I will look it up for sure! Thanks for the suggestion.

@sanguinepar@lemmy.world avatar

Seconded, it’s superb.

Papanca ,

The Bridge, a scandinavian series

matengor ,
@matengor@lemmy.ml avatar

Loved The Bridge 👍

HonkTonkWoman ,

There is also US version that aired on FX. I haven’t seen the original, but I did enjoy this version.

The Bridge

Will have to checkout the Scandinavian version, thanks for the heads up!

Towerofpain11 ,

Mr Robot

The Last of US

We just finished Snowfall last night. Awesome ending, very fitting.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

yes i don’t think i have finished it so I better do that, i guess that means its over to

cheesymoonshadow ,
@cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world avatar

Time to binge-watch!

Towerofpain11 ,

Yeah I loved the ending. A similar brilliant ending with Mr Robot too.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

dang , i’ve seen them all except the last of us

Towerofpain11 ,

Good taste then 😉

matengor ,
@matengor@lemmy.ml avatar

Try Last of Us. It’s very atmospheric and well written.

TheFriar ,

Def watch the first season of Westeorld if you haven’t. The rest I can’t speak on, the first couple eps of s02 made zero sense and I totally lost interest. The first season can stand alone as a self-contained piece, though.

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

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

man, bloodline was so good wish they made more of that one! appreciate it!

cheesymoonshadow ,
@cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world avatar

Bloodline drove home for me the fact that Florida is a very sweaty place.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

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.

cheesymoonshadow ,
@cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world avatar

It’s definitely a slow character-driven drama. I didn’t know that I would’ve gotten as far as mid season 2 if I hadn’t gotten hooked from the start myself. Hope you enjoy the rest of it.

Dark was amazing. True detective s1 o f course.

lidd1ejimmy OP ,

yes Dark was amazing. I love time travelling shows dark was def the tops of having an realistic edge to it.

Also liked, Dark matter (2024), Travellers, 21 Monkeys are a few travelling series i can recall that are worth a watch

plumbercraic ,
@plumbercraic@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Dark matter looks great - cheers. 12 monkeys I loved, maybe worth a watch again sometime. I’ve had to resort to comics and books to get my sci fi fix 😅

The Night Of

HonkTonkWoman ,

Fantastic Limited Series, left me wanting more.

SorteKanin ,
@SorteKanin@feddit.dk avatar

I was pretty happy with the length honestly. In general I think almost all series are too long. A nice ending is an underappreciated thing these days it seems.

tiefling ,

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.

ClassifiedPancake ,
  • Manhunt: Unabomber + Deadly Games
  • The Killing
  • Ozark
  • Halt and Catch Fire
  • Rubicon (unfortunately cancelled after season 1)
  • Mindhunter
  • Dopesick
  • Narcos
  • Chernobyl
Truffle ,

That Unabomber series was such a touching piece for me. I don’t want to spoil anyone’s fun, but it made feel vey sentimental how his vulnerable side was presented.

@random_character_a@lemmy.world avatar

Movies based on Stieg Larssons books.

Truffle ,

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!
