To understand how much potential the series has, it is enough to pay attention to the first series. If it “catches” and makes the viewer sit chained to the screen from the first to the last minute, then with almost a 100% guarantee we can say that the series is doomed to success.
Examples of such series are easy to count on the fingers. Passing by such stories is a real crime against the masterpieces of cinema art and your own curiosity.

6. Shameless | 2011
Who would have thought, but the main character, even being a drunkard, a rake and a drug addict, can attract the attention of many spectators to his person.

5. The real detective | 2014
The series, designed in an anthology format, is unlikely to leave indifferent lovers of intricate detective stories and criminal chronicles. From the very first minutes of the first series, the plot draws the beholder into the cycle of secrets, riddles and intricacies.

Plots about maniacs, their tracking, the history of the formation of the monster and its capture “catch” a lot of people. But the series, in the center of which there is a maniac, who devotes his free time to the search and capture of other maniacs who escaped punishment, is something new.
Dexter works as a forensic expert in the Miami Police. But his "hobby" is in no way connected with the abundance of free hours in Dexter's life that he has nothing to spend on. The thing is that in another way he does not satisfy his own thirst for murder, his own demon, whose name is the Dark companion.
2. Game of Thrones | 2011
Undoubtedly, one of the best series of our time. A sort of slice of the Middle Ages, but with a pinch of fantasy, a couple of dragons and a heap of magic.
Do not also forget about the endless palace coups, wars, illegitimate children and the attempts of each and everyone to grab the largest piece of the pie for themselves.
If you add bright and charismatic characters to all of the above, it’s easy to get a brief description of the Game of Thrones. This series is a real storehouse of themes and plot twists that are unlikely to leave anyone indifferent.
Do not believe the machinations of those who loudly declare that there is nothing interesting except for bed scenes in the series. This is a blatant and terrible lie, because ordinary people who are just looking for a better life are hiding behind the scenery and the medieval era. And for this they have to make difficult sacrifices and make difficult decisions.
