This year gave us a bunch of amazing new shows, and some of them only needed one season to tell a complex story. Here’s a couple of critically acclaimed limited series you should check out before 2019 comes to an end.
Chernobyl
The dramatic retelling of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster shed a light on the crucial cleanup efforts that followed one of the biggest man-made catastrophes in modern history.
When They See Us
Ava DuVernay’s moving drama told the true story of five teens falsely accused of a violent attack in Central Park, and their tireless attempts to prove their innocence.
Unbelievable
Another mini-series based on true events that broke new grounds when it comes to telling stories of survivors of abuse with grace and gravity they deserve.
Fosse/Verdon
Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams did an amazing job portraying the legendary Broadway duo Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon in this critically acclaimed biopic.
Looking For Alaska
John Green’s fans spent an entire decade waiting for an adaptation of his first novel Looking For Alaska, and the final result was one of the best coming-of-age stories we’ve got to see all year.
