I found that thread really useful on Reddit for finding new shows to watch and look into.

For me this week it’s mostly Lucky Hank and need to catch up with Silo. Been quiet week since a load of shows ended.

Recently, but not currently:

Scifi

  • Raised by Wolves (Ridley Scott + aliens+ robots)
  • 3% (Brazilian; death games dystopia)
  • Fringe (for those who love X Files)
  • The 100 (CW quality at times, but great world-building)
  • Gotham (ridiculous but always entertaining)
  • The Expanse (epic space politics)
  • The Man In the High Castle (incredible alternate-history with a scifi twist)
  • Counterpart (Amazingly acted parallel world spy thriller)

Thriller:

  • Yellowjackets
  • Cult (CW quality but a really cool premise)
  • The Terror (very suspenseful historical horror at sea)
  • Bates Motel (a prequel to Psycho that's a bit camp and very well-acted)
  • Marianne (French; supernatural and/or psychological thriller in a small town)

Drama:

  • Babylon Berlin (German; suspenseful historical drama about pre-Nazi Berlin)
  • Mindhunter (very suspenseful drama about the early days of forensic psychology)

Comedy:

  • Philomena Cunk series (mockumentaries)
  • The Orville (more Star Trek than most Star Trek, skews to drama more often than real comedy)
  • Wellington Paranormal (spooky cops in New Zealand)
