Hey, any solid MUST WATCH Tv show reccomendations in the last 3-4 years?

I feel like apart from GOT and that show about a theme park of robots/people, I've not watched a lot at all.

Quarry [1 season]
Big Little Lies [2nd season coming]
Fargo [3 seasons]
The Deuce [3rd final season end of year]
Billions [4th season coming]
Vinyl [1 season]

For more action-y;

Why don't you look at metacritics.com annual best of's - aggregation of TV reviewers scores, rather than a public popularity poll, so a bit more credible (to me) and filters out all the populist nonsense.

Things like The Americans score very highly there, which even though I don't love, is better than most ongoing series.

One offs / shorter mini-series are having bit of resurgence - so the likes of Patrick Melrose last year got a lot of praise (has Cumberbatch in it).

Its good, more than that even - though may of its advocates have it as one of the best of the last 5/10 years. The Sopranos, or The Wire it ain't.

One of the most enjoyable things for me was A Very English Scandal with High Grant and Ben Wishaw. A BBC miniseries based on Jeremy Thorpe's alleged attempted murder of his lover. Extremely well written and acted
