Some I've hardly seen mentioned here
Season 1 True Detective is peak tv
Season 1 Westworld
FX's Legion- the story is a bit disjointed between the season but the effects are top notch
Westworld was my #1 for so many years until Foundation pipped it.
I actually find it difficult to recommend it anymore because of how complex the plot got in later seasons. You need to be very familiar with every sci-fi concept to even stand a chance of keeping up with what's going on.
And the fact that HBO canceled it one measly season away from being about to finish the story. I’ll never pay a cent for HBO again.
The cancelled because the writers had no idea how to finish the story.
These series do not have a set path from day one.
I would argue that season 1 was so well crafted because it follows in the footsteps of the original feature film. From the start it had a clear destination, with the real story being "how in the world did we get here?" Constraints make good art and all that.
It turned to pure shit by the third season.
