    My time to shine has come!

    “The killing” with Joel Kinnaman and Meirelle Enos. Two detectives try to solve a murder case.

    “The fall” with Jamie Dornan and Gillian Anderson. A father with a dark and unsettling history.

    “Mare of Easttown” with Kate Winslet and Evan Peters. Local detective invetigates a complicated case.

    “Inside man” with Stanley Tucci. A detective gets help from an unexpected person.

    Sorry for the crappy overviews.

    Those are some of my favorites and I have watched them more than once.

      you’ve always shined my friend!

      Dude, this looks like exactly what I was looking for as I’ve never watched any of these and that is rare. Thank you even included a high level plot overview as well, lemmy can’t be matched!

        As a fan of all those shows (except the last which I haven’t seen yet, thanks for the tip!) this guy nails it. Those are all great picks! I will add I really liked season 1 of ‘The Sinner’ was excellent. I can’t say I loved the rest of the series as much as season 1.

          The sinner season 1 was great! Jessica Biel surprised me with her character but it’s the little sister that does it for me. Have you watched “Sharp objects” with Amy Adams? I love how gritty and sordid it is. Kinda slow at first butvthen it picks up quickly for a riveting ending.

      Oh my absolute favorite detective. I remember waiting a freaking year when they announced “Midnight sun” to come out as the series finale. Great british TV!

      Spot on! Very dark and dramatic, I remember reading the Millenium series when it first came out and then went to the theater to watch The girl with the dragon tattoo, the original european version with Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander. What a great actress!

    It’s old but Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy is great.

    Fortitude Session 1 is great. Season 1 is also self contained and the mystery is solved. Season 2 was a new mystery and kind of meh.
