I watch far less television than most, but I’ve binge-watched some series in recent years that I enjoyed and recommend. In roughly declining order of how much I enjoyed them:

• Andor (brilliant dialogue; characters & plot feel grippingly authentic/relatable; “good guys” doing bad things for higher reasons; “bad guys” acting out of principle; first few episodes are slow/confusing, but keep going; watched this twice)
• The Expanse
• Schitt’s Creek
• Invincible (I normally don’t enjoy superhero stories or cartoons, but this was fabulous)
• For All Mankind
• The Mandalorian
• Ted Lasso (first season was great; second was good)
• The Orville (please renew this!!!)
• Shrinking (stick with it through the less-than-great first few episodes… the rest are great)
• Firefly
• After Life
• The Man in the High Castle
• Altered Carbon, season 1 (didn’t bother with second season, which is much lower-rated; first season was enjoyable, aside from some hard-to-watch adult-themed content)
• that comic superhero show
• Billions (the early seasons)
• Upload
• Hello Tomorrow!
