Can you please recommend your favorite TV shows in a consolidated manner, we all have time to try them all out in lockdown.
Here are mine
Top recommended:
Inside no.9 on BBC iPlayer/britbox - more intelligent than yes minister. 30 minute independent episodes. Watch first episode, and if you like it, you will love it, jump to season 2 and watch straight through to season 4
Brooklyn 99 - slapstick. Hilarious.
The good place - very nice comedy that keeps you engaged for 4 seasons.
Silicon Valley season 1 is also good for silly comedy
Trollhunters - animation, on par with Pixar's best
Followed by: watchmen and the boys, both good thrillers
Succession, great drama and comedy. Boardwalk Empire seems to be equally good.
Black mirror: independent episodes.
bodyguard, nice short thriller
If you haven't watched already, Dexter season 3 and 4, and 24 season 5 are the best of the older shows.
After the above, Marcella and The Sinner season 2 are enjoyable murder mystery thrillers.
Avoid: homeland (totally boring), designated survivor (first half of season 1 is good), Mindhunter. People like Fauda, I found it too slow and poorly acted and directed. Jack Bauer would have finished this in 3 episodes.
For cricket lovers: the Test on Amazon Prime (Live following of the Australian team after the ball tampering scandal through to the ashes) and the Selection on Netflix.
