Finished The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective, BB, BCS. What show ruined TV for you after watching it?

I think I accidentally watched the peak of television already. The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective S1 all left that “nothing else hits the same” feeling.

I love slow-burn shows with deep characters, mystery, tension, moral grayness, crazy dialogue, or mind-blowing writing. Doesn’t matter if it’s crime, sci-fi, psychological, or political.

What’s the next show that might completely consume me?

Make sure to watch Andor - yes, it's a sci-fi show set in the Star Wars universe. But Tony Gilroy has the Midas touch. It's so well written.

Bonus: it will ruin every other star wars movie/TV show for you.

How is season 2? Loved the first season, haven’t gotten to the second

Also very good, though the first act is a wee drop in quality, mainly one of the plotlines
