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?


Seriously. There are multiple times where just showing someone’s face is a big reveal, but you’re expected to keep track of multiple versions / ages of various people AND their family connection and I just could not keep up with remembering who was who. Everyone looks like the same so that doesn’t help.
