dang , i’ve seen them all except the last of us
Good taste then 😉
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.
Try Last of Us. It’s very atmospheric and well written.
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.
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!
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.
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 first four are remakes, but they’re done very well.
Tokyo Vice
Shogun (not exactly a crime thriller but it will suck you in)
Ripley (shot like a black and white film from the 40’s, good even if you’ve seen the Matt Damon movie)
Perry Mason
Yellowjackets
Altered Carbon
Big Little Lies
Nine Perfect Strangers
Dark Winds
If you like crime comedy, try White Lotus, Dead to Me, Search Party, Only Murders in the Building, Flight Attendant, and The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window.
your a savior… my girlfriend will like the crime comedy ones so thanks for those!
The Bridge, a scandinavian series
Signal, a korean series
Loved The Bridge 👍
There is also US version that aired on FX. I haven’t seen the original, but I did enjoy this version.
Will have to checkout the Scandinavian version, thanks for the heads up!
man korean series are crazy i love it. i prefer dubbed tho over subtitles
Sopranos
I kinda liked Your Honor.
i did too they should make more
I liked it, first season best.
Better call saul
If you’re never seen Columbo, you’re in for a treat.
Movies based on Stieg Larssons books.
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!
ALIAS. “She’s a grad student! She’s a spy! She’s a grad student! She’s a spy!”
Andor
It’s old but Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy is great.
Fortitude Session 1 is great. Season 1 is also self contained and the mystery is solved. Season 2 was a new mystery and kind of meh.
The Hannibal series maintained my interest throughout, largely carried by Mads Mikkelsen
Plus the visuals and ambience creation were superb IMO. Mads Mikkelsen is such a vesratile actor. I especially liked his Hannibal.
OP: I am babbling all over your post because I am so excited to find interesting shows, movies and people in it. Sorry for the rambling.
Criminal Minds
Look for the original Swedish/Danish version of ‘The Bridge.’ It’s been remade with USA/Mexico and UK/France, but the first is still the best. I usually hate shows with subtitles, but this one kept me going for every season. Body turns up on an international bridge, half on one side and half on the other. Two very different police detectives have to work together to solve the crime.
‘Culprits’ is from the POV of the crooks. After commiting the perfect crime, a now reformed crook is pulled back in when the wealthy victim comes looking for revenge.
