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?


NOTE: only the UK version, not the American one, trust me. It’s **brilliant __ ** but prepared to be very disappointed it didn’t get another season.
UK Utopia has two seasons and has something approaching an ending. The second season isn’t nearly as good, excluding S02E01, which was genuinely great.
Seconding American Utopia === bad as well.
