TV Series
Shows worth the hours they ask for.
-
1
The Wire
created by David Simon · 2002
A show about institutions, disguised as a show about police. Season four is the best thing on this list.
-
2
Chernobyl
created by Craig Mazin · 2019
The most honest television ever made about what happens when engineering truth meets politics.
-
3
Better Call Saul
created by Gilligan & Gould · 2015
Somehow more patient and more devastating than the show it came from.
-
4
Severance
created by Dan Erickson · 2022
Office design as horror. The production design alone earns its place.
-
5
Halt and Catch Fire
created by Cantwell & Rogers · 2014
The rare tech show that understands the work is never the interesting part — the people are.
