Recently I’ve been catching up on tv and some of the more mature/adult shows, which I’ve been…Enjoying? Seems like the wrong word, but they’ve all generally been cynical or dark.
For reference, I’ve just finished Better Call Saul, which got me to finally get around to finishing Breaking Bad, and I’ve also been doing a rewatch of the anime Monster as it’s been years since I last watched it.
So basically back to back dark shows.
I’ve already watched The Good Place, which nails what I’m describing, but it’s a little blunt with the sweetness, while I’ve watched some of Bee and Puppycat which seems like it’s closer to a nice middleground of sweet and real.
What are some of your go-to shows for this kinda vibe?
Tacoma FD, Letterkenny, Shoresy, Miracle Workers, Poker Face, Resident Alien, Ghosts (US), The White Lotus, Shrinking, Ash vs Evil Dead, The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.
Can definitely plus one on letterkenny, Ash vs evil Dead is really good once you get past the first episode if you are squeamish about horror themes, and the adventures of brisco county junior is always a solid winner.
If you like sci-fi comedy and British humor I would also possibly throw Red dwarf into the pile.
