Police dramas/ serial killer series recommend? [title edited by MNHQ]

[Coffeandteav]

I am looking for new or old seriel killer drama to watch. My partner thinks I have seen every one going. I don't fancy one with subtitles but have watched some in the past. ( hurts my eyes at the mo) also I prefer ones that are over a few episodes. I dislike super natural dramas. Just watched Equinox and it annoyed me.

Are there any hidden gems I have missed? Off hand I have watched the following?

If you're ok with subtitles or speak fluent Flemish I highly recommend Code 37 - more sex crimes than serial killer but very good

Thanks. I have just watched Spiral. I don't mind them but taking a break for a bit.

I really fancy Red Riding but can't find it anywhere.

Red Riding might be on All4

Red Riding might be on All4

Thank you and to the other pp who suggested All 4.

Oooo new Marcella is on soon.

The Wire is absolutely worth persevering with. I’m currently rewatching for first time in 10 years and it really is incredible. Omar is possibly my favourite character ever.

The Wire is absolutely worth persevering with. I’m currently rewatching for first time in 10 years and it really is incredible. Omar is possibly my favourite character ever.

He's one of the best tv characters there has ever been.

The Sinner
Hannibal?

‘Unbelievable’ on Netflix is such a good series. Truly, one of the best crime dramas I have seen.

I do love Omar.

Was going to recommend The Shield OP as I always do, but see it’s already on your list.

In a very different vein (very black comedy about a hired assassin turned wannabe actor), I can’t recommend Barry enough - best series I’ve seen in years. HBO though so not readily available on Prime / Netflix. I cannot wait for another series.

Des. Superbly played by David Tenant and very chilling.
Strike. Based on the books by JK Rowling and I thoroughly enjoyed binge watching them at the weekend.

Really surprised Line of Duty isn't in your list but its inspired me....thank you!

Another vote for Unbelievable on Netflix. Very well done, and with a focus on women victims and police. Highly recommend.

Oh I started to watch the trial on netflix a while ago and stopped because at that point I hadn't the energy for subtitles (it's italian).

What do you think of switching the audio from the native language to English when that option is available? I find it saps the life out of the show

Whoever does the english subtitles just blandly reads them out with no acting. That's why even if you don't speak a word of Norwegian or Flemish you get the feeeel better if you can concentrate and listen and read the subtitles.

You have to be in the right mood though. After a long hard day of spreadsheets, maybe you just want to sip wine and listen. Not concentrate like your life depends on it!

A few people have mentioned Happy Valley, but I have to back them up. It is incredibly good-certain scenes have really stayed with me. Sarah Lancashire is absolutely fabulous in it

100% recommend the Tunnel if you haven't seen it, there are some subtitles but only occasionally and the majority of it is in English.

Another one; Gomorrah (the series rather than film). It’s incredible but absolutely brutal. Hamsters in Naples.

Not exactly a police procedural but have you seen Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul? Hours and hours of brilliant TV.

If you like Morse and /or Lewis, then Endeavour is good fun.

I agree that Happy Valley is brilliant. One of the best ever cop dramas.

oh wow, that korean drama stranger that somebody recommended, there's an option to choose spanish audio!

Ok this I can cope with.

Didn't see it recommended yet but Broadchurch is fantastic!

I Am the Night with Chris Pine, Its about the Black Dahlia murder.

One of Us
Deadwind
The Code- about a journalist with a hacker for a younger brother who gets caught up in some dodgy business.
Unbelievable
Unsolved Mysteries for true crime
The Alienist- set in 1800s New York but a true serial killer series
Mindhunter
The Sinner
Collateral
The Woods
McMafia

brilliant thread 🎉

Another one for Unbelievable and also Strike. Both really good but in completely different ways.

Fauda ( Netflix)
The Killing of Gianni Versace ( iplayer I think)
The Announcer ( All4)
