Rendezvous With Rama et al

Broadchurch

House

Line of Duty

Phoenix Nights

Big punt but it's a UK based list so yolo

I'd highly recommend the farseer trilogy. IMO some of the best character development in fantasy

i am legend

I got through the first book. It's an interesting concept and it is written well enough, but never held me nor left me wanting the next book.

Fargo

Fleabag

I really didn't like this show, but as much as it got it's ass kissed it's got to be on there, right?

OMG ban

Just 2 strikes that round. One was surprising to me; the other was not.

Donk gets one with Broadchurch. I've never seen it, but I know that it's quite highly regarded and am shocked it's not on here.

And sixfour gets his second with whatever Phoenix Nights is. Never even heard of it.

Only two top 20s get taken off the boards. One was Six Feet Under at #12. The other was the highest answer remaining: Fleabag at #4.

We were exactly even with TV and books after 4 rounds, but this round was 10 to 2 in favor of TV guesses. Is this an anomaly or does this spell good things for Eric and Zeus?

You may now guess for round 6.

Only familiar with two guesses again that round.

Fleabag might be my favorite sitcom ever.

Rick and Morty peaked in the first two seasons, but hasn't fallen off a cliff and I'm still a fan.

The Leftovers

the thick of it

you don't know veep? it's amazing! maybe best comedy ever. and i love fleabag. s2 e1 is like one of the best episodes of anything ever... if that's the one where they are all out to dinner together

I've never seen Fleabag, but having it at #4 seems pretty bonkers to me.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

House of Cards

The Good Wife

Phoenix nights is a Northern comedy by the man famed for this:

Ah that's a shame. It does build but if the first one doesn't get you maybe the rest won't as the writing style stays familiar.

What's great though is she's very willing to hurt characters in ways that even grim dark fantasy writers seem to avoid.

Also....she actually finishes her series so there's that

Frankenstein (book)
