Shows that feel likeTime (2021–)
If you loved Time, the closest series we have are Broadchurch (2013), 13 Reasons Why (2017) and Carrie (2026). All three share Time's contemplative and melancholy feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Shrinking (2023).
If Time hit the spot, these will too

Both land stillness and grit at once
The difference: Sits closer to mystery than Time does

Two things both keep coming back to: suicide and mental illness

Both lean on melancholy more than on drama
The difference: Takes it somewhere less gritty than Time does

Both are built on the same subject: suicide
The difference: Trades the grit of Time for an angle of its own

Contemplative crime, and it commits to that

Common ground in both: prison and prison guard

The same preoccupation in both: prison


Crime with a pulse of stillness, in both cases


Melancholy crime, and it commits to that

The same drama instincts
The difference: 20 years apart, and the 2000s show
In the mood for more contemplative?
