The cold season is approaching, and at this time many of us devote ourselves to watching various films.

And in recent years, the production of series has gained momentum.

They are already unlike soap stories and have a shooting level comparable to a full meter. And about the best over the past year, I will tell in this article. I’ll mention right away that the selection took into account the opinion of not only popular ratings, but also of our editorial staff – everything that was not obvious and interesting at the same time.

The Boys
Genre: Action, Comedy, Crime

An entertaining story about superheroes. That’s just from most modern films, it differs in that it shows the wrong side of the world of the saviors of mankind. They also have their problems, dirty past and even secrets.

And as it turned out, many of them are vulnerable! Virtually no snot, black humor, charismatic characters on both sides of the conflict and a decent quality of effects and blood. It is recommended to everyone who is looking for something new among the world of family conspiracies and solving crimes.

Chernobyl
Genre: Drama, Historical, Thriller

The most detailed part of the picture, the work of all that you see in this material. The production designer gave everything 100%, because the Soviet situation is conveyed in every shot.

Let many domestic critics complain about incomplete historical authenticity, there can be no doubt that each character was carefully tailored to its prototype.

It looks in one breath, although it contains a one-sided view of the 1986 disaster in Chernobyl. The quality is also indicated by the rating – 9.5 according to IMDb, let me remind you that “Game of Thrones” boasts a mark of 9.4.

Love, Death & Robots
Genre: Animation, Comedy

Each episode has an approximate length of 15 minutes. But during this time you will be served one carefully crafted story.

All of them are made in an individual style. Something more reminiscent of CGI videos, but somewhere there is frank animation. But they are all extremely entertaining.

In each series you can find humor, sometimes black, and many meanings. It has been noted more than once that a separate message lies in the filing. And somewhere in the vastness of the network you can find individual thoughts of the author for each series on the topic of what he wanted to say.

Sex Education
Genre: Drama, Comedy

Many of us remember our transitional age with its many “problems” and constraints. This is exactly what the authors of this series offer to laugh at.

The story will turn around a young man who himself has problems with the opposite sex, but he decides to open courses for the same guys.

Yes, the plot cannot boast of a cunning twist, but stupid, sometimes very vulgar jokes will please every viewer. Definitely worth a look in the company, preferably your soulmate.

Umbrella Academy
Genre: Action

Another story about the collective salvation of the world, which is wrapped up against the backdrop of relations between the older and younger generations.

The characters are worked out in detail, but despite the genre, there are opinions that the plot is a little tightened. The picture itself is framed at a high level, with the elaboration of the heroes of the original comic book.

No jokes and dramatic moments could not have done. As for ratings, I recommend that each viewer decide individually.

The Mandalorian / Star Wars: The Mandalorian
Genre: Fiction, Action, Adventure

The picture is as fantastic as the plot of the famous saga. Some critics agree that the series is somewhat far from the main line. But paying attention to the picture is definitely worth it. Moreover, if everything else has not hooked you or you have already looked a lot.

Users note the appearance of familiar characters and a more thoughtful story than in the last trilogy, which turned out to be a failure in a sense. I am pleased with the atmosphere and direction of the story, which passes through all the series.

The Morning Show
Genre: Drama

Have you ever wondered what is going on behind the scenes of perfect television? The series tells exactly about this. Every friendly host does not have the right to make a mistake.

Everything that can become public must be measured out. Otherwise, the TV channel may suffer serious losses. Everyone is interested in popular opinions, ratings, trends. In this, everything is lost who, in addition to work, have their own lives.

The viewer will like the production, the cast, because of which the picture is more like a film. Fans of the genre are definitely recommended to watch. Well, this is the only Apple project that came to our selection.

When They See Us
Genre: Drama, Crime

Terrible things sometimes happen in the world, for which someone must be held accountable. But it happens that justice is not only impartial, but also blind. That’s how five guys go to jail.

The series revolves around a tragic story, which is transmitted through the picture, dialogs and plot. And all this in the framework of four series – cheerfully and catchy.

Our Planet
Genre: Documentary

A small cycle will help to understand what a multifaceted and amazing world we have. And this beauty is difficult to see, and sometimes capture, for which modern achievements of the film industry were used.

As a result, this work can be safely shown to children, most likely, it is worth watching the whole family. And each frame can be taken as the most beautiful screensaver for your desktop. And yes – it is recommended to look at the large diagonal in the most affordable quality.

The Guardians (Watchmen)
Genre: Action, Detective, Fiction

The series is a continuation of the film of the same name, released in 2009. All series are already available for viewing, but if you did not watch the original film, it is better to turn to it first.

The plot is extremely confusing, the first three or four episodes you think: “what the hell is going on here !?”, but by the end everything that you saw earlier makes sense. It has not yet been announced the continuation, but a hint of it in the last series has not been noticed.

Bonus – The Witcher

This long-awaited series was released at the end of 2019. Despite the fact that I have not had time to watch a single series, he already deserves to be in our selection.

The series is based on the eponymous series of novels. The main role is played by Henry Cavill. Judging by the first reviews, we are faced with many discrepancies with the original, but I advise you to evaluate everything yourself – especially if you have not read books and have not played the game.
