Since the last episode of this season is behind us, I am looking for some recommendations on what to watch to fill this void. Hopefully this thread won’t be considered off-topic. I mostly lurk so I’m sorry if this does not fit the magazine.

I’m using word “similar” pretty loosely here - in general I like mysterious shows, not necessarily horrors or gore (but not excluding those).

  • It’s probably nothing new, but just in case you haven’t watched it yet, I’d like to recommend “Dark” (imho best to watch in original German audio and English subtitles).

  • I also love “1899” but it got cancelled after 1st season :( The show is complex and not without flaws, but I think it’s interesting, entertaining, has great soundtrack, visuals, and production value. I think it still might be worth seeing as a curiosity but keeping in mind there won’t be a resolution.

  • My absolute fave is “Severance” (on Apple TV+). Just a fantastic show that completely defies any expectations and has an incredibly tense and well put together finale of season 1. Can’t wait for the next season.

  • Season 1 of “The Haunting of Hill House” is also great, season 2 is a bit worse in my opinion (it’s like an anthology series so they are not really connected with plot) but still worth seeing.

  • I tried to get into “Silo” recently, but it wasn’t a success for me, something about the pacing seems off. I will try to give it another chance at some point though.

    Thanks, I forgot about it! I think I watched an episode or two of season 1 long time ago, I should revisit it. I don’t know exactly how to say this but Yellowjackets is raw and absolutely uncompromising. Savage almost 😂 It’s an interesting watch but not an easy one to binge for me for some reason. But definitely a quality show. I love Melanie Lynskey and everything she’s in.
