    Looking for Shows on Max & Paramount +/ Showtime

    About to get black friday deals on Paramount + with showtime and Max and want to maximize my watching on both. Need suggestions for these platforms!!! (would also take any for Netflix, tubi, or Disney, or peacock as I already have these).

    Tier list below to help clarify my tastes to show both shows i love/like and ones i havent liked as much. (Also had some fun with quotes from my favorite shows being the tier categories). I have a watch list on the tier list, feel free to highlight any of those I should do first.

    (And please don't come for me for my rankings it's obviously subjective and based on my criteria. For example, breaking bad is an objectively good show, I just hate like all the characters so I don't really enjoy it that much 😭)

    Thanks in advance!!

    Shows similar to Sex Education?

    I recently rewatched Sex Educations first 3 seasons, and watched season 4 for the first time. The first 3 seasons still hold up, I genuinely love them, season 4 is definitely a step down, and a disappointing final season. What shows would you say are similar? I’m trying to fill the void that final season left.

    Scenes Switching Between Dreams/Visions/Hallucinations and Reality

    Hi everyone. I'm working on a script in which the main character is undergoing a medical procedure and is having a dream while doing so. I want the scene to jump from the "dream world" to the real world.

    Do you have any references I can use for these types of scenes? To be extra specific, I'm looking for specific scenes (not entire episodes) where a character is unconscious/incapacitated (in a chair, bed, medical table, etc.) while experiencing a vision/dream/memory, and the scene switches between:

    • Their physical body (often monitored or observed by others)
    • What they're experiencing in their mind

    The most basic example that comes to mind is The Matrix: Neo fighting Agent Smith.

    Eastern European Tv?

    I just finished “Better Than Us” on Netflix, and I’ve previously watched “To The Lake”. Anybody have any recommendations for Russian (or Eastern European in general) tv shows that I should watch? I primarily watch apocalyptic fiction , dramas, and romance, but I enjoy crime, comedy and action if it’s a quality show.

    Looking for a drama about a crime/drug lord family aka Kin

    I’ve just finished Kin, and am now looking for something similar. What I loved about the show was the familial affection, the gang wars, the refusal to let any disrespect to the family slide, overprotective parents and the fact that it focussed on the heads of an organisation (not looking for a show about foot soldiers). I also enjoyed the ’hitman with a heart’ trope in Michael being arguably the most dangerous, but also often the calmest.

    Please, please do send any recommendations my way! As an FYI, I’ve tried Peaky Blinders, but had to stop because I found the espionage plot deeply uninteresting. Any recommendations should ideally be shows with minimal/unintrusive side plots.

    Looking for TV series similar to Selling Sunset/RHOBH and so on

    I love watching the wealthy society drama shows for background noise and some entertainment/motivation while I work (lol)

    I’ve watched them all at this point but wondering if I’m missing some. I’ve watched Selling Sunset, the OC, I tried selling Tampa but didn’t enjoy it, Selling London, Manhattan.

    I’ve watched Dubai Bling, RHOBH, I haven’t watched any other RH series as I don’t have them on Netflix I don’t think.

    Anyway, throw any shows similar to above at me! 😊

    Help me find a new tv show

    I want a show like The Night Agent, or Cross, I want something that’s going to keep me on the edge on my turns with lots of plot twist. I love Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder, Found, Apple Never Falls, etc,..

    I’m mainly looking for a drama, action, suspense and lots of plot twists. I’m willing to compromise on action based. I just want something that’s is going keep me on the edge of my seat.

    Shrinking

    Just finished Season 1 of Shrinking

    Gotta say I was pleasantly surprised. There lots of laughs and plenty of heartfelt moments.

    AppleTV is killing it with their lineup, I haven’t watched a single series on it that wasn’t top notch.

    I’m sure this show has been discussed numerous times here already, but I had to tell someone.

    Looking for a very specific type of show

    I’m looking for things that into the nitty gritty of corruption, specifically like political/governmental. Not necessarily real life either. The only examples that come to mind are Andor and Dopesick. The scenes from the empires perspective and the sacklers perspective was really really interesting. I want to see both sides of the fight. Any and all recommendations would be very much appreciated.

    Elder parent/adult child relationships similar to "A man on the inside"

    Just finished this short show and really liked the parent/child relationship it had going on - where the parent is beginning to grow old, and the child is navigating becoming their caretaker. If anyone has recommendations for shows with a similar parent/child dynamic, please share! Genre not important, I'm open to a lot of things.
