There is very little out there remotely as good as Gomorrah.

Glad someone else thinks this! I’ve been trying to get friends to watch it, but no luck yet. Seriously gritty and the sound track is great too. Will make sure I steer wide of Scampia should I ever go to Naples!

There is a thread on it but it quickly drops off the first page...

Fair few of us on here have discovered this gem of a show.

The Night of
Vice Principles (dark comedy, that gets pretty messed up with D. McBride and W.Goggins as leads)

I find HBO is generally a good source for quality mini series.

Chernobyl,
Sharp Objects,
When they see us,
Dark (watch this in original German),
Umbrella Academy.

Godless on Netflix is great.
Sacred Games is worth a watch too- a first Indian Netflix original.

The Night Of (as other on this thread have also suggested) Was superb and ticked all the boxes .....very much enjoyed every episode.

Agree with your comments on HBO being a good source for mini series.

Didn't at all get along with an earlier suggestion The Ozarks (Netflix)...... Not in the same league.

Vice Principals recommendation is interesting as I enjoyed Walton Goggins from his time on The Shield / Sons of Anarchy) ....Will take a look.

Thanks for the Chenobyl HBO mini series recommendation started watching..very good.
Am also complementing this by listening to the Chenobyl series podcast with Craig Mazin Creator...lots of extra info and facts on each episode
