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?

    You like death note, simple as that, and there’s no problem with it. I went in with no prejudices, actually quite excited cause a friend pumped up my expectations, and by episode 3 or 4 I already dropped it cause the dialogue and the script are, to my taste, completely childish garbage.

    I can’t see a game of cat and mouse, but two extremely self-important, overstuffed characters portrayed (especially L) as extremely intelligent guys, but they’re in fact just dumb.

    Actually, not even as a kid I’d watch something like that.

    And I like thrillers, Death Note is just not a good one imo.

    But again, idk why you’ve been arguing to the contrary, that’s a matter of taste and its subjective. Some people hate evangelion and noragami, for example, whereas they’re two of my favorite animes. And I dont try convincing them otherwise

    It’s okay to dissent
