    • A&E’s Nero Wolfe
    • Agatha Christie’s Poirot (with David Suchet)
    • The Expanse
    • Star Trek: TNG
    • Fleabag (season 2 is a masterpiece, and I don’t throw that word around)
    • For All Mankind
    • Archane (season 1 is another masterpiece)
    • Penny Dreadful (it dips in quality in the later seasons, but worth it for the Frankenstein’s monster story alone)

      Poirot, Coupling and IT Crowd are some of the best telly ever created in my opinion.

        OK. It’s a French animation studio that wanted to give their show a distinctively European feel. It makes sense that they would pull aesthetic inspiration from European graphic novels.

        Disco Elysium is one of the greatest video games ever made, and its aesthetics pull heavily from European graphic novels. It’d be a shame to miss out one either because you feel their art style is inspired by previous works.

        If you do decide to watch Arcane, do not binge it. It is meant to be consumed three episodes at a time. My recommendation to anyone reading this is to watch three episodes per day.

        Season 2 is rushed jut Season 1 is perfect.

        80’s Shuiten and Peeter’s graphic novels

        Those seem to borrow Mœbius’ earlier style, which was defining for French and Belgian comics since the seventies. So it’s rather ironic of you to say that it’s S&P who were ‘ripped off’.
