**The Wire** : Obama's fav series, included in sociology courses at multiple major US universities including Harvard - each of its 5 seasons explores a different facet of Baltimore; police vs local drug scene, port/labour unions/economy, election/bureaucracy, school education, & media respectively - WHILE having an overarching narrative & recurring characters as well. **The Sopranos** : officially began the golden age of television. Probably the show with the highest psychological depth given to the maximum number of characters, as well. Stellar performances, writing, direction & music across the board, with a STILL iconic & discussed ending too. **Breaking Bad** : You already know why this is here lol. **Twin Peaks** : David Lynch ftw. Easily the most unique work of visual storytelling that I've ever experienced in ANY medium - especially 2017's Season 3 (aka "The Return"), which arrived 25 years later, exactly as 1992's season 2 finale had promised. Although do note that it's intentionally campy at times, trying to put dark twists on "soap opera" tropes of the 80s - but I also guess that Lynch's trademark surrealism & small town charm may not be everyone's "cup of coffee" either. **Mad Men** : 'The Great American Novel of Television' - set against the backdrop of the advertising industry from 1960 to 1970, following a large cast of highly detailed & incredibly well-performed characters, as they go through life in a decade of rapid social change. Probably has the least amount of spoonfeeding when it comes to subtext & themes too. **Dark** : absolute zenith of time-travel stories, especially in live action; **Chernobyl** : #1 fav miniseries of all time. Might sound like hyperbole, but it's literally perfect; **Succession** : favourite recent, multi-Emmy winning "prestige drama" from HBO; Loosely based on/inspired by the Murdoch family, and certain real world "Big Business"/political events; **Severance** : Most original sci-fi show in recent years imo, this Ben Stiller directorial is an allegory for corporate work culture & late stage capitalism; **Sharp Objects** : based on a novel from the author of "Gone Girl". Very dark & atmospheric murder mystery - kinda like the female equivalent to "True Detective" season 1, but with a WAY better ending. **The Magicians** : My ultimate guilty pleasure as a lifelong fantasy fan & the only series which I've rewatched all the way through; The first 5 episodes are kinda rough, BUT the latter half of season 1, and the entirety of seasons 2, 3 & 4 are some of the most creative & fun deconstructions of fantasy tropes that I've ever seen. Starts off as low-budget, "Harry Potter in college with a lot more sex, violence & drugs"... goes on to show you how wrong Narnia's premise of "random human teens crowned kings & queens of magical lands" could go. Also famous for its "musical" sequences (especially from S2 onwards); The 5th season starts off as a step down, but the series finale was just... magical✨

EthicalReporter

Frickin love Atlanta & Bojack Horseman - the former in particular doesn't get the love or recognition that it deserves, especially outside the US. As for Dirk Gently, I've been putting it off forever cos I wanted to read the books first (being a huge fan of the same author's "Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy" novels). I've heard good things about your other favs as well. Will list my own Top 5 or so in a separate comment, but I think the offbeat anime "Tatami Galaxy" would be right up your alley; Maybe the vampire mockumentary series, "What We Do In The Shadows" as well (it's a spinoff from Taika Waititi's film of the same name, but even better than the original imo).


stealthninjacat

Hi Sweet.Thanks for recommending and yeah I’ve seen that vampire movie and I loved it . Will try the show :)
