    The Good Place. Funny, compelling, I cried through the final episode. It also doesn’t waste your time, things will happen mid-season that any other show would have dragged out for the season finale.

    More like a miniseries, but HBO’s Chernobyl. Some of the best television I’ve ever seen.

    I am surprised that I’m the first to mention Bojack Horseman here.

    This series is for you if you want to cry out your mental health problems

      As someone who had depression and watched the show as it came out: IT IS NOT HEALTHY FOR YOUR DEPRESSION. It is however an excellent representation of it.

    Since it’s not mentioned, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. If you liked Firefly, you’ll like Buffy. Yes, it has baggage, but that doesn’t prevent everyone else in the cast from having their work appreciated. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll dabble in witchcraft.

    As a scifi buff: Battlestar Galactica, and The Expanse were excellent. Nightsky was also a really good watch even though it was slow moving, and was more about relationships than SciFi

    Well, Breaking Bad is already on here and its really good. But to me Better Call Saul is one of, it not the best shows out there. Also doing the whole chronology:
    Better Call Saul till the middle of S6 > Breaking Bad > Rest of Better Call Saul > El Camino
    Really slaps.

    Other than that The Leftovers is quite an underappreciated piece of Television. It simply delivers 3 Season increasingly weird and intriguing and then its just finished.

    I also really enjoyed Station 11 bit of a different take on a Post Apocalyptic World and a great miniseries
