    No spoilers: current watch is Euphoria - my household is a little late to the party but it’s been fantastically depressing (a la Bojack in a lot of ways). That said, I think one could watch Requiem for a Dream and get the same gist.

    My solid always recommendation is Patriot on Amazon prime - not the Mel Gibson movie, the show. It’s incredibly well written and acted, I tend to describe the vibe as “Wes Anderson crossed with The National”. It got two seasons before it was canceled which is a shame, and I still go back for a rewatch roughly yearly

    Surprised there’s no mention of Slay the Spire 2! It’s been out a little over a month and a half and I’ve logged way too many hours, even though it’s still in early access. I will say, the EA status means they’re release updates - so far it seems a little over a month for updates to the main branch, and you can choose to play on the beta branch which gets updates every week or so.

    If you’re into deckbuilder roguelikes, or spent most of a year playing Balatro, I’d highly recommend it. There’s also co-op multiplayer which is ridiculously fun - my partner and I play at least a couple times a day together and recently got some friends playing with us, very good much fun!
