I haven’t been watching much in terms of actual shows for a good while, then while listening to a podcast a host casually mentioned they had rewatched Chernobyl, how it still holds up, that there’s a reason it got as much acclaim as it did, etc. So I thought I’d give it a go and wow, loved it (still one episode left to watch).
Had me thinking, what else have I missed out on? What are some “absolute cinema” TV shows that still hold up and and are considered must watch?


Why is this only the first comment to mention Expanse, peshang?
Nowal bang beltalowda.
Also the first one to mention Foundation - a great itch-scratcher if you have an itch to scratch after The Expanse. Completely different setting though (written by Isaac Asimov - Foundation, that is), so do expect a way-different world. Still very SciFi.
If you’re not convinved yet: Foundation also has Jared Harris/Anderson Dawes as an actor, so you know that shit is goooood.
