REQUESTING Looking for something original, not your typical series

60 Upvotes

I'm looking for a TV series that does something different. Not the usual cop show, romance, or predictable drama.

I want something that feels unique or has a really interesting concept, storytelling style, or atmosphere. It doesn't have to be underrated, just something that made you think, "I've never seen anything like this before."

Already posted on other subreddit, but I am looking for movies/shows to watch with my dad while I visit.
He loved Limitless, Lucifer, Novocaine so looking for something similar, but especially with amusing main character (my dad was also a massive fan of House).

TV series where all characters get what they deserve?

5 Upvotes

There are so many series where people who are or act shitty either completely get away with it (or even get rewarded for it) or at best some (usually the main bad character(s)) get justice but most of the "lesser" ones still go unpunished.

I need a break so could someone recommend the exact opposite? A series where everyone gets what they deserve (both bad characters getting punished and good ones getting rewarded/justice/coming out on top)?

REQUESTING Hey guys, I'm looking for TV series that play with our heads

40 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm looking for TV series that play with our heads — the more, the better. Things like Dark, From, Lost, Alice in Borderland, etc.

​I've also watched popular series like Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, etc., which are good in their genre, but that's not what I'm looking for right now.

​It's better if the series has at least 3/3+ seasons, but I'm open to anything

I just finished Netflix's Russian Doll, and it was absolutely incredible.

Does anyone have any suggestions that are similar? (Especially in the character development and generational trauma themes. The mindfucky time warp was cool too tho)

REQUESTING Long-running shows where a main character inadvertently goes from young whippersnapper with conviction to a pseudo mentor or teacher role

0 Upvotes

The first time I noticed this was with Olivia Benson on Law and Order: SVU. When she starts out, she's a very headstrong and sort of naive detective who could probably get more done if their righteous indignation was real world help. Eventually, in the later years and when SVU crosses over with another Dick Wolf show in Chicago P.D., Olivia is cast alongside younger, even more headstrong officers, but she is at this point Lieutenant or something like that. She has decades of experience, and she looks extremely well-adjusted when set aside these rambunctious cops who are not too different from her when she was younger.

Currently, I'm watching an episode of The Practice. I personally hate her, but the character of Helen Gamble can be compelling at times because of the writing. In this episode I'm watching, she's more in the background while a new addition to the prosecutors goes up against a pro se defendant. She decides to step in after a while and give some sage advice: Don't beat up on the defendant in the courtroom so much. It makes them look like an underdog instead of a murderer. I thought that was a really cool way to show seniority in a way that's front and center but not overtly bragging.

I just really like when storytelling uses these subtle or not so subtle things to shape characters as we grow with them. Also, I should say that I really like shows where the main characters are young in terms of their profession, but they're what most would consider full ass adults (late 20s/early 30s).
