With tv being notorious for abrupt cancellations of shows, and this remaining the case with streaming, I’ve started focusing more on Limited Series (or mini-series). If you’re like me and had no idea what Limited Series meant at first, it’s basically a series with a fixed amount of episodes and, at least for those I’ve been enjoying lately, a guaranteed ending.

A few examples:
The Queen’s Gambit
Haunting of Hill House
The Pentaverate


What about you, have you found yourself going the same way with shows, and if so what are some you might recommend?

    Not being able to rewatch the first season/series of The Terror (wikipedia entry) is one of the few things I miss about my cancelled Amazon Prime subscription. There was a second season which, in the same anthology vein as True Detective, is unrelated to the first. I found the second season to be forgettable – in fact do not remember anything about it – and assuming the planned third season comes out as I’ve read about, will never get to see that one. First season though, loved it.
