Don’t show that anymore
Crashing.
But thanks to Netflix’s outstanding occasional promotion, it probably wouldn’t have been to put a screen like Dark on his radar (Dark enthusiasts know what I’m talking about).
I hope you have a hidden gem or two here to entertain you at home.

Jessica Barden in The End of the Cursed World.
If you like your black British humor, look no further than The End of The F – ing World. Psychopath James (Alex Lawther) hatches a plan to kill Alyssa (Jessica Barden) as he flees his ugly parents. But as they cross the road and engage in some violent crimes, their callous hearts melt and spread emotions for each other. Surprising, fast and surreal, the two seasons of this emotion-free teen show, with its headphones pumping the most productive unhappy doo-wop of the 50s, 60s and 70s, will surprise you.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge (center) and Crashing.
Before electrifying everyone with the best Word for Word Fleabag, Phoebe Waller-Bridge wrote a six-part comedy that showed the beginnings of her incredible talent. Crashing follows six twenty-year-olds living in a disused hospital, casually complying with strict regulations in exchange for a reasonable rent. Strange characters override expectations whenever it’s funny, Waller-Bridge introduces himself as Lulu’s ukulele guitarist. Not only does it disturb friends’ settings, but it is discovered in incredibly dark conditions (see Aunt Gladys, too delicate).
David Tennant in Criminal.
Criminal offers 4 sets of police procedures channeling Line of Duty, each of the episodes focusing on a separately selected suspect in an interrogation room. The turn: each of the series takes place in another country and language (Spanish, French, German and English), but they use exactly the same concept and the same together. In addition to the interrogations of cats and mice with an intense script, with master class performances through David Tennant and Hayley Atwell, it is desirable to see how limited sets are used through other police teams.
Jonathan Groff at Mindhunter.
David Fincher conducts a book of episodes in the two-season series of this mental crime mystery (the third is in indefinite hold), so meticulous images and captivating plots are a no-brainer. Holden Ford (Jonathan Groff) is an FBI special agent, sent to interrogate serial killers in criminal to identify a profile of what motivates them. Cameron Britton as the real serial killer Ed Kemper is certainly terrifying. Mindhunter is smarter and richer than the average police program, and develops with its complex characters. It would be a shame if the 3rd season didn’t come.
Kingsley Ben-Adir and Britt Marling in The OA.
In the brains of Britt Marling and Zal Batmanglij, The OA has it all: mystery, science fiction, supernatural and even a fantasy trail by intelligent measure. We stayed with Prairie, a young woman who reappears after seven years reported missing. She’s blind, but not anymore! Now, she calls herself an OA and trains a crowd of Midwest residents of all ages and backgrounds on her life-saving project. Unfortunately, Netflix canceled the OA after Season 2, however, this wonderful creative and human science fiction remains a value test.
Asa Butterfield and Ncuti Gatwa in education.
Binging Sex Education is a no-brainer: John Hughes’ conscious mixing of American and British top school culture is very easy to see. We stick to Otis (Asa Butterfield), the son of a sexologist (Gillian Anderson), as he embarks on his sexual awakening. Explicit discussions and sex scenes are approached in a refreshing and fair manner. Built around a varied cast with natural charisma, Netflix has naturally ordered a third season.
The Crains.
Mike Flanagan’s The Haunting of Hill House, loosely based on Shirley Jackson’s novel of the same name, weeds his horror into a deeply moving story about a damaged family. Fractured after developing in a hanging house, the Crain cannot forget their afterlife and will have to do what they never need to do: descend into the dark corridors. The impressive sets will appeal to horror fans, however, it’s the sad story of the Crain that will, yes, leave you for days. The good news is that this year comes the time for the bankruptcy of the anthology.
Martha Nielsen in the dark.
Germany’s reaction to Stranger Things is intentionally taken before entering absolutely desirable and original places. A sci-fi black, Dark folds TimeArray plots and remote families into a generation-to-generation story introduced through the disappearance of a child. If those kind of meticulously designed layers is what you’re looking for in your storytelling, calm down. The 3 seasons of Dark’s meditative gaze on time and its effects on human nature are waiting to strike you head-on.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Mackenzie Davis in San Junipero.
While Charlie Brooker’s dark series of technological anthologies may be random, at best, Black Mirror packs his mini films with an exploration of futuristic technological concepts through painfully human stories. One of them is San Junipero, who follows two women from the 80s (the thunderous soundtrack) while falling in love with each other in a way they couldn’t do in their “real” outdoor life in the beach town. The technological side is revealed with wonderful timing and, in general, the series explores the consequences of our lives hooked in a disturbing and uplifting way.
Betty Gilpin and Alison Brie at GLOW.
A lively exhibition through the true story of the first professional women’s wrestling syndicate in the 1980s? With Alison Brie? Produced through Jenji Kohan? Dreams come true. The pure GLOW comedy, full of eccentric female characters, combines the cheesy with the triumph of the homeless and shoots. Season 3 advances deeper into the life of its varied ensemble, with a fourth and final season about to crown this delicious frame hit against the ring.
Olivia Colman in The Crown.
Sumptuous is a word to describe the production values of The Crown’s drama on the British monarchy. After the life of Queen Elizabeth II, who was born in her twenties with stiff functionality through Claire Foy, The Crown captures the wonderful performance of ancient occasions deep inside Buckingham Palace. Characters such as Winston Churchill, Princess Margaret, Margaret Thatcher and many others are treated with cinematic sophistication. A fourth, fifth and sixth seasons are underway to complete their wisdom about the queen’s reign at the birth of the 21st century.
Natasha Lyonne as a Russian doll.
Russian Doll takes his Groundhog Day apartment and knocks it down in the most unpredictable way. Natasha Lyonne is the crackling spark amid her mystery of loops in time, betting on Nadia, a game developer who dies several times on the night of her 36th birthday. The screen co-created by Amy Poehler uses time to explore self-reflection on a whole new level, making it a definitive quote.
Kaitlyn Dever in Incredible.
Based on a true rape story, this miniseries deftly navigates its haunting and sensitive theme with remarkable functionality through Kaitlyn Dever. She plays Marie, a teenage girl accused of mendacity for rape, but, of course, it’s more confusing than that. Toni Collette and Merritt Wever come together as smart detectives who see what others fail, adding an extra layer to Incredible’s sensitive and powerfully moving triumph.
Alessandra Mastronardi and Aziz Ansari in Master of None.
On the surface of a comedy about a 30-year-old New Yorker who loves his money, Master of None casually releases poignant and nuanced episodes about immigrant families and their second-generation children. He then drops a full episode on Tinder. Dev’s identifiable reports are filled with the spirit and charm of author and star Aziz Ansari and, in addition to the non-public controversy, the romantic and cultural themes he explores are remarkably mature.
Shira Haas in unorthodox.
This miniseries is based on a memoir and is basically narrated in Yiddish with meticulous details. Almost a thriller, Unorthodox follows 19-year-old Esty Shapiro, who escapes his arranged marriage on an ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn network. She ends up in Berlin, exploring a new outdoor life under the strict ideals she grew up in, but her network doesn’t let go so easily. With amazing functionality through Shira Haas, Unorthodox will allow you to enter an insurmountably desirable world.
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan and Jaren Lewison in Never Have I Ever.
Devi is the average high school student who needs nothing more than being great and having a boyfriend. But it’s hard to let yourself complain after your father’s death. Mindy Kaling’s coming-of-age story covers a family territory and yet stands out from the rest in many ways. He understands this: his narrator is John McEnroe. The sporting bond is just one layer of this unexpected and captivating spectacle, depicting a circle of Indian relatives living in California. You’ve noticed those stories before, but not with those exclusive characters.
Alvaro Morte as a teacher.
This series is enjoyed through many (and Netflix loves you for it), but in case you haven’t heard what it’s about, Money Heist is, yes, a heist. The brain that makes Ocean’s Eleven preparation paintings with equally satisfying revelations is The Professor. It has banks in sight and we see their complex plans mingling with flashbacks, time jumps and even an unreliable narrator. It is a captivating television with a different Spanish identity, do not be discouraged by subtitles.
Linda Cardellini and Christina Applegate in Dead To Me.
If you’re in favor of an exhibition directed through women with a dark sense of humor and a mystery, Dead To Me gives it all with a shovel. This underrated series is about the friendship between Judy through Linda Cardellini and Jen through Christina Applegate, the general opposites who unite around wine, the family circle and murder. The twists and turns hold the momentum, while enjoy spending time with those imperfect but brilliant women.
Cillian Murphy in Peaky Blinders.
Netflix wisely regained the rights to Peaky Blinders and five seasons ago, along with two more to come, to make the astonishing rise of Birmingham band leader Thomas Shelthrough in the 1900s. Put yourself in a position for a desirable role through Cillian Murphy in this family circle saga that has a wealth of laughter and style appearing in Shelthrough’s relationships with other gangs, the police and the informal lover.
Ricky Gervais and Penelope Wilton in After Life.
After Life may not be a classic like Ricky Gervais’s The Office and Extras, but it’s an exhibition you’ll have to settle in. Set in the quiet fictional town of Tambury, it follows journalist Tony, played through the screen’s author, Gervais, in incredibly dramatic territory. Tony is grieving for the death of his life’s love of cancer. While the series is imbued with melancholy, there are magical moments in which Tony unleashes the eccentric and boring inhabitants of the city (for him) in a brutal and priceless manner. But you know he’s on the right track to deal with his pain and build lovely relationships with the other people around him.
El de Derry Girls.
Another must-see that Netflix caught in the British Isles, Derry Girls follows the misadventures of Erin and her friends in the 1990s in Derry, Ireland. His teenage problems are combined with equally funny antics from his parents, as opposed to the background of the confrontation in Northern Ireland. While you can make comparisons to The Inbetweeners, Derry Girls takes advantage of its own charm and ancient context paves the way for a strangely dark mood.
Bill Pullman (left) Detective Ambrose in The Sinner.
Three desirable seasons of The Sinner await opening, each focusing on a homicide committed through an unlikely offender in even bizarre circumstances. Season 1 follows Cora from Jessica Biel, who stabs a guy to death in a bevery in a sudden frenzy, but he doesn’t know why. It’s up to Detective Ambrose of Bill Pullguy to get to the bottom of the shocking situations rooted in his psyche that led to his activation.
Sarah Gadon (right) Grace in Alias Grace.
This miniseries dates back a few years, but in case you missed it, it’s definitely worth a look. In the line of The Sinner, Alias Grace returns to the afterlife of her young female protagonist to see why she commits a murder, which she does not remember. An adaptation of a novel through Margaret Atwood, the series stars a hypnotic Sarah Gadon as the Irish immigrant Grace, who leads a turbulent life as a maid of a circle of relatives in the colonial region of Toronto. Founded in part in a true story, it’s not an undeniable mystery with undeniable answers and that’s what makes it even more captivating.
Lovesick’s.
Lovesick is a simple and fun visualization with a mature premise for shameful humor with which we can all identify. Dylan, helpless in love, discovers that he has chlamydia and will have to be located beyond adventures and tell them that they too can have it. A backing story helps keep things interesting, especially when the focus is on the emotions of Dylan and the most productive friend Evie for each other. He never enters soapy territory, with an eccentric but adorable cast playing English roommates on a Glasgow stage.
Richard Madden and Keeley Hawes in Bodyguard.
Bodyguard broke records in its first broadcast in Britain, from cliffhanger to cliffhanger at a relentless pace. This may be the definition of an unstoppable frenzy, something that is not unexpected given that it comes from the spirit of Jed Mercury of Line of Duty. Richard Madden of Game of Thrones plays the titular bodyguard, who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder after serving in the war in Afghanistan. In addition to this, he is guilty of protecting the Interior Minister (Keeley Hawes), whose politics he despises. Taking provocative turns and creating one of the most productive initial scenes of 20 minutes, Bodyguard is an expert in balancing tension.
The one with the strange things.
It wouldn’t be a bigger list without Stranger Things. If you missed the Duffer brothers’ ode to the horror of the 80s and Steven Spielberg, things are about to be tubular. We stayed with Him, an almost mute woman who has been the subject of clinical experiments. Develop telekinetic powers, which he uses to repel monsters that invade a terrifying dimension of choice. Indiana’s global Hawkins is superbly detailed to anyone who wants a nostalgic hit from the 80s and the wrong characters, played through a young star cast, are part of everything that makes this exhibition a power excursion.
Robin Wright at House of Cards.
Although Kevin Spacey’s accusations of sexual harassment have ended up spoiling that dark aspect of politics, which breaks the fourth wall, it’s still worth watching if you like force games and occasional stabbings. Originally after Spacey’s Frank Underwood, the sixth and final season of House of Cards toured to stay with his wife Claire (Robin Wright) as he takes on more and more strength in the Oval Office.
Jason Bateman and Laura Linney in Ozark.
Announced as the next Breaking Bad, Ozark only gets bigger when you see the Byrde circle of family life getting out of hand. Starting with an explosion, Ozark sees that money advisor Marty’s cash laundering program (Jason Bateman) for a Mexican drug cartel goes wrong. Your solution? Move your circle of relatives to Lake Ozarks, where you will set up a larger laundry room. Harnessing all this potential, Ozark creates an intelligent but above all entertaining story, with a surprising twist through Laura Linney as Wendy Byrde. Good news: Ozark has just been renewed for a fourth and final season.
The passenger cast.
Full Reveal: Unfortunately, Netflix has canceled travelers after its third season, however, this science fiction extracted from Canada manages to end with an ambitious explosion. We started with Marcy, a disabled woman who was beaten after helping her escape from thugs. She dies and then comes back to life. This strong character-driven science fiction shows its secrets intelligently, following the long-term agents tasked with preventing the collapse of society, but also navigating the sensitive territory of living a double life.
Gillian Jacobs and Paul Rust in love.
Love is a creation by Judd Apatow that makes the most of Gillian Jacobs (Britta in Community) and Paul Rust. They play Mickey and Gus, a couple who draw opposites, who move to messy, frustrating and endearing places, making them a fair look at a date that accumulates over time. Iris Apatow is a star as guardians of the unfortunate child actress Gus, who gets away with almost everything.
Taylor Schilling and Laura Prepon in Orange is the New Black.
One of Netflix’s early originals has innovated in more tactics than one. The seven seasons, originally from a memoir about a real women’s prison, mark the lives of women of origins and nationalities, all of whom end in orange monkeys. Drug dealer Piper launches the first season as our Alice describes the rabbit hole in this wild, raw, hilarious and hard spectacle that tackles complicated disorders that are rarely explored on screen.
Asante Blackk in When they see us.
When they see us, Ava DuVernay presents heus under the banner of a misleading but complicated display. It describes the actual occasions of the Central Park broker’s case in 1989, which involved five male suspects of color who were falsely accused of rape and assault. Not only to draw attention to children’s humanity, When They See Us demands outrage over the injustice of systemic racism.
Ellie Kemper at Kimmy Schmidt.
Tina Fey’s rock comedy after 30 is as strange and glorious as possible. Kimmy Schmidt is a 29-year-old who nevertheless emerges after 15 years in the bunker of an apocalyptic cult. Naive but relentlessly enthusiastic, she does her best to adjust to life in New York, doing occasional work, seeking love and befriending equally strange people. The screen is peppered with an impressive joke consistent with the second. Her rewatch price is skyrock and Ellie Kem agrees that Kimmy is a heroine to defend.
Charlie Cox in Daredevil.
The screen that paved the way for Marvel’s Netflix television series ended after its third season, a victim of disconnected links between the transmitter and the superhero. This naturally outraged fans, as their quality did not diminish. Not any superhero exhibition, Daredevil travels to dark and strangely existential places, dealing with Matt Murdock’s religion while leading a double life as Daredevil’s blind lawyer and vigilante. He became famous for his one-on-one wrestling sequences, with a villain as intelligent as his hero, Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin, Daredevil shone while it lasted.
Krysten Ritter in Jessica Jones.
While the last two seasons have dropped the ball a little in terms of complex themes, Jessica Jones Season 1 is a force to consider. Somehow becoming a detective of black superheroes, the series mixes themes such as rape, attack and post-traumatic stress disorder in its multiple facets. Krysten Ritter was the best selection to take on the dry, sarcastic and tough hero who can also be an occasional idiot. With a mind-controlled villain like David Tennant’s Kilgrave, who can literally tell others to dedicate themselves to suicide, the wall our hero will have to climb to save the stage is surely amazing.
Chef’s Table tells the stories of chefs around the world.
Chef’s Table is for gourmets who not only need culinary pornography, but also the feeling of seeing what wonderful chefs have succeeded in bringing this food to the plate. From the documentary filmmaker who served the famous Jiro Dreams of Sushi, Chef’s Table tells the story of another professional chef with episode, coming from restaurants in the highest remote corners of the world (Lima, Peru, anyone?). All to the sound of original symphonic music, this series is a moving and cinematic opera fueled by the force of food, culture and inspiring stories.
The Queer Eye team.
Rebooting the 2003 makeover screen is more than just a real screen. As the Queer Eye team travels through the United States and other parts of the world, entering the homes of those who have advanced through their friends and family, they use their charm and sheer will to help push their new friends into the future. Transformative replacement in their lives. As you look, you may be informed about your own cooking, fashion and decoration skills, all on the way to confidence and happiness.
Carey Mulligan as collateral.
Carey Mulligan betting on a detective detective is a stroke of genius, leading an investigation into the murder of a pizza delivery man shot dead in a London suburb. The cunning and, um, Mulligan’s former Olympic pole vault jumper Kip Gillespie delves into the mystery that, of course, is what it looks like. The guarantee pushes its police procedural barriers into murky ethical territory, wrapped in a warm blanket of political and social commentary.
Pedro Pascal in Narcos.
The pivot of the drug Pablo Escobar is the theme of this series, however, addictive that runs through its ascent to the notorious distributor of cocaine and billionaire. Narcos, a realistic narrative that merges with archival images, manages to provide a sympathetic look to Escobar without compromising the gravity of his material. In addition, hunting the DEA to take down Escobar increases suspense. After completing Series 3, head to Narcos: Mexico City, a companion series that focuses on illicit drug trafficking in Mexico.
The Last Dance follows that of the Chicago Bulls.
Even if you don’t like sports or documentaries, The Last Dance unfolds as the ultimate thrilling drama, detailing the Chicago Bulls achieving greatness, with rare photographs of their magnetic and intense leader Michael Jordan. A desirable look at global basketball, The Last Dance is as entertaining and exciting as a game on the field.
Dylan Minnette in thirteen reasons.
The first season of this exhibition has now remained true to its original material, a novel through Jay Asher that revolves around the suicide of a teenage girl. Hannah Baker leaves a box of tapes, which her considered friend Clay Jensen listens to to find out why she decided to devote herself to suicide. It is a profound subject, treated in a confrontational manner (at a time considered too confrontational), but social disorders such as suicide, sexual assault and intellectual fitness are treated with maturity. A superior school drama through frail and lost young adults attracts you and doesn’t let you down.
Will Arnett expresses BoJack.
When it comes to cartoons that let their guard down before worrying about intellectual health, BoJack Horseman takes the palm. Set in Los Angeles full of anthropomorphic animals, it follows a former star of the failed sitcom who tries to regain her old fame by publishing an autobiography. While it takes him a while at first to digest this unconventional cocktail, BoJack Horseman soon surprises him with his truths about the fight against depression and addiction on the way to his life’s rehabilitation.
Logan Browning in Dear Whites.
This provocative titled exhibition offers a timely look at fashionable race relations through the eyes of another character in each episode. After several black academics at Winchester, an Ivy League institution, Dear White People manages to combine his social observation with a keen sense of humor. The fourth and final season is expected to come this year, crowning this harsh revelation.
Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas in the Komisnky method.
A comedy starring Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin? Yes, he’s as smart as he looks. Douglas plays Sandy Kominsky, a former Hollywood actor who is now an acting coach, going through everything that comes with age. Arkin plays her boyfriend and agent Norman Newlander. The two main roles, as well as the supporting characters played through Emily Osment, are what elevates this exhibition to warm and moving territory.
Merritt Weaver and Michelle Dockery at Godless.
This miniseries is firmly in the Western line, with a cast run by women with Merritt Weaver and Michelle Dockery from Downton Abbey. With his perspectives on New Mexico from the 1880s spinning around him, Godless recounts the violence in a story that sees an outlaw fleeing the safe haven of his head of an excluded widower. Oh, Jeff Daniels is also there, if the series wasn’t hot enough.
Susan Wokoma and Cara Theobold in Crazyhead.
If you were a fan of Howard Overman’s incredibly entertaining Misfits, Crazyhead could be the next destination. Overman’s follow-up show, which first aired in the UK in 2016, is a horror comedy starring Cara Theobold (the voice of Tracer in Overwatch) and Susan Wokoma as friends who come together to watch demons galloping in society at large. Act is at the center of this bewildering and entertaining series, featuring exorcisms, accidental murders of roommates and demon parents. yes, you have to look at this for yourself.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Jake Johnson at Easy.
Joe Swanberg carries his logo of informal and observable improvisation stories to multiple stories that explore the various diversifications of love. You come to a marriage that tests the waters of an open relationship. There are a lot of other characters and relationships to navigate easy’s episodic anthology set in Chicago, with strangely realistic and meaningful resolutions.
Joe Exotic and a tiger.
Even if you’ve picked up a lot of main points about Tiger King’s madness since invading the Internet, you still have a smart chance of being absorbed by the documentary series that sits in probably amazing places. Actually, there’s nothing like watching Joe Exotic rise and fall as he builds his personal tiger zoo in Oklahoma. Things get even weirder when her bitter dispute with Carole Baskin, a cat-saver in Florida, leads to unsolved harassment, threats and homicide mysteries. In fact, you have to take a look at it.
Cheer follows the athletes at Navarro College.
Cheer, another documentary series that has captivated more than sports fans, delves into the lives of highly competitive young athletes at Navarro College in Texas. Starting in 2000, coach Monica Aldama built the program from scratch to become the most productive in the country. The anxiety they face increases over the course of the six episodes as they advance in their great competition, but still, deep down, the series is incredibly uplifting.
Feeling good.
Feel Good through actress Mae Martin is looking to do what she says in the can. Follow the repressed George (Charlotte Ritchie) as she falls in love with Martin’s Mae after watching her stand-up show. His London-based romance sees George dealing with his middle-class friends and family, while Canadian Mae has a drug challenge that makes his love even more difficult. A story told with confidence with his sense of humor nailed from the beginning, Feel Good distills sweetness and grace.
