Something to replace Ozark

We've just finished Ozark (which is amazing) and until season 4 drops we need something similar to fill the gap. So please give me your gripping, well acted and written, multi episode drama recommendations!

We have watched and enjoyed The Sopranos, The Wire, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Homeland, Line of Duty, Happy Valley, Sons of Anarchy, Sherlock, Snowfall and probably many more I can't think of right now. We have Netflix and Prime.

Thank you!

Mindhunter on Netflix If you haven’t seen it. The Sinner.

seekingwaxwings · 03/07/2020 14:23

Thank you PuppyMonkey, those both sound very promising! Smile

Money Heist, in Spanish, with subtitles. I grew tired of Ozark, but this is so so bloody good!

Teacaketotty · 03/07/2020 15:13

Mindhunter and the Sinner are very good - working our way through season 3 of the Sinner right now and it’s really good Smile

Justified.

Really fantastic. 👍

healththrowawayx · 03/07/2020 16:30

Virtually anything? I didn’t like Ozark, found it cringeworthy

whatsaroundthecorner · 03/07/2020 16:30

Recently finished ozark and felt the same. Replaced with Breaking bad on Netflix

PuppyMonkey · 03/07/2020 18:42

I meant to say, I also hated Ozark. Got to about episode 6 and decided I couldn’t be arsed finding out what happened next.

AnyFucker · 03/07/2020 18:44

Money Heist

SinkGirl · 03/07/2020 18:44

The Shield is on All4 in its entirety and is IMO the best TV drama ever. Absolutely amazing. Justified is on Prime and that’s good too, but not as good as The Shield :D

If you like Sons of Anarchy, Animal Kingdom on Prime is really good.

Bagelsandbrie · 03/07/2020 18:46

The sinner is good although the latest season is a bit weird!
The Outsider
Hunters - love love this.
Gangs of London
Snowpiercer - it’s based on the film but the series is very good
Mindhunters

Some of those are on Prime I think but it’s worth joining just to see them.

Bagelsandbrie · 03/07/2020 18:47

Nothing we’ve found compared to Ozark though. We are sad we’ve not got any more of it to watch!

DGRossetti · 03/07/2020 18:55

We have (finally) just started "Good Omens" and are loving it ? Not quite the same genre, but loads of fun.

AnnaNimmity · 03/07/2020 18:59

My friends have recommended Unorthodox - I'm currently watching Ozark and may move onto that afterwards.

I've just got into Ozark - I'm about 8 episodes in.

AnyFucker · 03/07/2020 19:18

Shtisel is great

The latest season of The Sinner is shite

billy1966 · 03/07/2020 21:56

@SinkGirl
Similar taste!
The Shield was just destination television for us 15+ years ago. DH and me loved it like we had never enjoyed tv before. Not TV people before...actually didn't have a tv for 10 years!.

Justified is super
Sons of Anarchy also super
Homeland is great too
Breaking Bad too...

Girls was fab too.

👍

Inkanta · 04/07/2020 05:17

Will try Justified - thank you! I enjoyed Ozark by the way. For me the best series this year.

avamiah · 04/07/2020 05:23

Inkanta,
I loved the Sinner ( all 3 series )
It’s not easy watching at times but stick with it .

avamiah · 04/07/2020 05:29

AnyFucker,
I loved the Sinner( series 3)
Why didn’t you like it ??
It kept me watching and even now I don’t know what happened .😬😬😬😬😬😮😮😮

Seven8nine · 04/07/2020 07:02

Loved Ozark too, last series went too quick. Only other comparable series for us was Ray Donovan on Now TV, I think there’s 7 seasons it was really brilliant, we binged watched it, felt gutted when it ended but thankfully I hear there will be another season!!

I’ve watched Sinner, unorthodox and Money Heist, all good but not quite in the Ray Donovan, Ozark league! Quite jealous of people who haven’t seen either yet! Will have to give Justified a go.

Completely different but I did watch The Notebook again last week for the umpteenth time, totally recommend if you like a good romance and a young Ryan Gosling! 😍

Sunnytimesahead · 04/07/2020 07:08

I absolutely love Ozark too, one of my top 5 series! I can’t understand some people saying it’s cringeworthy and not being able to get past a few episodes. The actors are excellent and well drawn, the story lines are refreshing and not a typical rehash of the same thing seen many times before.

Have you tried Patrick Melrose on Now TV? It’s harrowing at times but the acting is fantastic and really thought provoking. Sorry if you don’t have Now TV, maybe do a free trial if possible.
Peaky Blinders is excellent too.

DangerCake · 04/07/2020 07:12

We’re watching succession. Awful awful people but enjoying it immensely.

Seven8nine · 04/07/2020 08:10

@AnyFucker

Shtisel is great

The latest season of The Sinner is shite

I thought the same for the Sinner, just felt a bit messy!
AnyFucker · 04/07/2020 09:16

Season 3 of The Sinner was boring and silly.

Bill Pullman is as wooden as a gatepost in it.

hazelnutlatte · 04/07/2020 09:23

Have you seen The Americans? Great plot and there are 6 seasons I think so will keep you busy for a while!
