I haven’t been watching much in terms of actual shows for a good while, then while listening to a podcast a host casually mentioned they had rewatched Chernobyl, how it still holds up, that there’s a reason it got as much acclaim as it did, etc. So I thought I’d give it a go and wow, loved it (still one episode left to watch).
Had me thinking, what else have I missed out on? What are some “absolute cinema” TV shows that still hold up and and are considered must watch?
For those who liked Chernobyl, I recommend The Days about the Fukushima disaster. It’s not as dramatic and cinematic, but still fascinating to watch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Days_(Japanese_TV_series)
If you want a soothing TV show about Japanese culture and traditions, I recommend The Makanai, about a young geisha training house. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Makanai%3A_Cooking_for_the_Maiko_House
