The ones that really blew my mind were Firefly, Game of Thrones (first 4 seasons), The Expanse and The Last Of Us.
I guess I like gritty fantasy/SciFi with a focus on realism.
If anyone has recommendations, I’d be very thankful.
Is For All Mankind good?
I rewatched Pluribus with a friend this past weekend after watching it week to week originally. It was a totally different show, but also the same ultimate conclusion.
Week to week I was left with so many questions and not fully expecting what would come next. Watching it in a binge the season felt so fast paced. Whenever the current time would come up it was almost impossible to really understand how little time had actually passed.
Some episodes only a few hours would pass, but what an hour. Other episodes weeks would pass, but it felt like an hour.
Timeline spoilers
By the last episode ~75 days have passed, but it feels like forever.
Yes. Go For All Mankind. Takes a bit…to get used to the alternate universe in which the USSR won the moon race (no big plot reveal here, this is the first 5min in the first episode). But it keeps building on that universe, and the subsequent technological races…and it’s absolutely hooking. By all means, go for it. Apple TV is on a stride with their TV shows, honestly some of the most risky ideas are being shown there.

I think that one episode of The Last of Us might have been one of the single best episodes of television ever made.
I don’t know which one you mean, but my mind instantly went to the one with the prepper couple and the strawberries.
That’s the one.
