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?
Maybe I need to revisit Legion. Each season made me think I forgot something major from the prior finale but pirating and skimming back, it just wasn’t the case. The memory of the show is more like a series of persistent dream standalone sequences than a themed show. I don’t know. I mostly enjoyed it. I suspect I didn’t understand something(s) critical. Blue-eyed Plaza was uncomfortable. I still dream of making a time-eater prop for Halloween Dec. I can’t remember if the hookah pig was real in their universe. I didn’t understand the velocity of Sydney’s flip from supporter to enemy.
I have too many questions. I should re-watch it
I think the quality went down in the later seasons, but that first season was amazing, especially if you didn’t know what to expect.
