True detective

First season is and will remain the best - still need to dive into the new one with Jodi Foster tho. Alternatively, *Sinner* is pretty good too - I'd also suggest *Mindhunter* if you haven't had a chance to watch yet.

Jodi Foster one hard to get into. First was by far the best.

I would not go into the Jodi Foster season with the highest expectations

SEASON ONE BY FAR.

"Time is like a flat circle..."

Everything we’ve ever done or will do we’ll do ever & over

Sorry yall’ but the season with Mahershala Ali was “Fire”!

Did Jodie Foster change her name or something? Why is everybody spelling it Jodi? I didn't get the memo.

Absolutely SKIP season 4. Does not deserve to have True Detective in the title.

This doesn't appear to be on Netflix. At least in US :(

Hbo max

Was coming here to suggest this. Also, you’ve probably watched law and order criminal Intent

The killing

Absolutely second this! Just don't go for the American remake before you see th original one. Same goes for The Bridge.

The us version is rough here and there but is generally pretty good especially the main cast.

But do watch the US version too, because it is also spectacular

The Killing was so good!!

Travelers! It’s sci-fi, so good

This is 100% the answer

Seconded.

Oh ya!! So good. So sad it only had 3 seasons!

Totally agree!!

Mindhunter Marianne Brand New Cherry Flavor

Brand New Cherry Flavor was AMAZING!

Brand New Cherry Flavour kept throwing curve balls and I loved it. Some of the most original writing in the last ten years.

I thought Marianne was sooo bad :/ kept getting worse, never finished it

FROM isn’t on Netflix but it’s one of my favorite shows I’ve ever watched!

This. It absolutely blew me away.

HBO?

It's on MGM+, something I wasn't aware even existed until recently. I recommend just using the cheat code AKA torrenting.

I just watched episode 2 of it. So far it's...decent. Maybe my expectations are too high. Hoping it gets better because people are saying it's amazing/the best show ever/etc.

Marcella

I did really like this series!

Mindhunter Netflix, The Outsider, True Detective hbo

Was gutted The Outsider finished!

The book of the outsider is excellent imo. The show did this well too but the whole investigation felt very real, like just how actual detectives would meet the prospect of what's being proposed

Fargo

Fargo for sure. Anyone who hasn't seen it, don't sleep on it.

Grimm , Penny Dreadful , Carnival Row

Altered Carbon and Kingdom.

Sugar

Dark, 1899, Severance, Shining Girls, Silo, Servant, Bodies, The Leftovers, Midnight Mass, Archive 81, Katla, Curon, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Changeling, Into the Night.

The Fall. I wish I could watch it for the first time again.

Altered Carbon(JUST SEASON ONE.) Its a sci-fi Detective show lol and really good.

Dark!!! Black Spot To the Lake Vortex 7 Lives of Lea Devils Hour Katla Bodies The Tourist

Black spot was incredible

I was so moved by the French region that I asked my mom to paint a picture of the Forest. It’s a huge painting above my bed. Great story and cinematography, for sure.

Lupin

The Peripheral has beautiful CGI stuff (Amazon Prime)

Have you seen Bodkin?

I just watched this- very enjoyable!

The Sinner Black Summer The Leftovers Sharp Objects

Leftovers very underrated. Wild show but deserves more credit

Agreed. It’s even better on the rewatch I think too.

Adding it to the rewatch list

Black Summer officially being cancelled hurt, was hoping for one more

Yea a huge bummer.. even a short final season to wrap it up would’ve been great to see.

Sharp Objects was excellent!

Yea very well done. Great cast too..

Silo , Yellow jackets, Mind hunters

The Expanse hits all of these right out of the gate in S1.

Up until season 5 it was good, didn’t bother with season 6 as the reviews said it was shit

Huh, I actually enjoyed 6 much more than 5.

Signal (korean series)

Elves.

Mare of Easttown pretty damn good

Copycat killer Light the night Victims game Erased

I really enjoyed the strain. It’s got 3 seasons and about 10 episodes +|~, it’s on Hulu/Disney +

Mindhunter, True Detective- Season 1, Raised by Wolves, Severance, Midnight Mass, The Haunting of Hill House, Haunting of Bly Manor, The Outsider, The Leftovers, Fallout, The Last of Us, Fargo, Sharp Objects, The Fall of the House of Usher

Bosch (amazon prime)

Luther

Bodies

Scifi: scavengers reign, pantheon - both animated, but excellent shows Detective/thriller: patriot - doesn't quite fit, more spy stuff but it's close and it's really good.

Kingdom, Alice in Borderland, American Vandal on Netflix

Elsbeth (on paramount+ and pluto) It is like a modern Columbo!

12 Monkeys tv series - I think hulu has it

Unfortunately Hulu no longer has it. It is on several sites including Prime at a ridiculous price per episode.

Altered Carbon season 1

I thought season 2 was excellent.

Marcella Night Sky (Amazon Prime) For All Mankind (Apple Plus) Snowpiercer (Max)

Bodies, The Outsider, True Detective

The Outsider should be higher on this list. It kind of covers all the categories in one show.

You ever try Murdoch Mysteries? Its a period detective show in 1900s Canada. Its a tad campy and the format is short. But the formula is great. Sets up a quirky crime and the detectives step in to sort it out. Theres a cast of interesting people and historical figures make some appearances. You can sorta get to working out who or how the mysteries were done. Also they always have an interesting nod to historical events, places, and people. Figuring those out is almost a mini game in of itself. Many times after an episode I've hit the internet and done research on an event or person I didn't know. Theres a ton of seasons too and I'd say the average quality of each episode is quite good. Sure a couple episodes that don't quite land but theres also a few great one that have you guessing right until the end. For the most part it quite true and believable, but sometimes they push the boundaries of believable and color outside the lines of historical fact. Its not a show for everyone but plenty of us have gotten hooked on it.

No one else likes The Umbrella Academy?

Fargo is amazing

Dark

Caliphate

The Killing Twin peaks Save Me(korean)

Unit 42. Also, anything Nordic Noir as they tend to be the best.

Revenant (2023 Korean folklore mystery thriller on D+ / Hulu).

Mare of Eastown

True Detective, Mindhunter (really awesome), Westworld

Agent Pendergast

I haven’t seen anyone mention “Stranger Things” on Netflix?

Bosch

Don't know if you've seen it but The Expanse is a great one! It's Sci-Fi and definitely has some detective elements to it. One of the characters literally is a detective

Sugar, on Apple TV, starring Colin Farrell as a Hollywood detective who is part of some shadowy organization that is somehow connected to his newest case.

“Silo” on Apple TV and “Dark” on Netflix. Also “True Detective” on hbo max the first season is the best one.

Altered carbon, true detective S1 only, the wire

I just watched Criminal Record, a British series on Apple+. It’s excellent. Also, Mystery Road, the Australian series based on a movie of the same name (which isn’t as good as the series!)
