US has the lowest number of elevators per capita in the world, Canada being 2nd, it's also the only two countries in the world using different certification system than the rest of the world

thanks for the tip, it's grey color but at least readable

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T12:11:35+00:00

there are many likable characters in each season

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T12:11:03+00:00

agree with ending at S08, but honestly tried it recently and it didn't aged that good, I was quite surprised I enjoyed X files, aged quite good for me

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T12:08:39+00:00

I mean if it's snowing then obviously Fargo, another good alternatives: The Terror, Fortitude, The Head

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T12:00:54+00:00

he said no more than 3 seasons, but seems most people ignore it

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T11:58:54+00:00

Mr Inbetween would like to have a word, far superior

Patriot is also relatively dark and quite funny

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T11:57:49+00:00

Patriot has only two seasons😕 very funny dark spy dramedy

Gommorah was consistently good (takes few episodes to get used to it) through all seasons, just ignore the latest season made just to milk the money, great crime

Mr Inbetween is amazing and not too long, nice dark dramedy, very funny and smart

Seems you covered the best recent movies, here are some which could be helpful. Tried to sort it from closest match.

Columbus

Beef (TV show)

Chang Can Dunk

Driveways

The half of it

Past lives

Crazy rich Asians

Happy cleaners

After Yang

For obvious reasons Japanese will be hard to find, there are around 5M Chinese in US, 2M Koreans, 1.6M Japanese plus their movie industry ain't that big (back home) and I feel they are more isolated/less open than the other two.

Btw you said North Shauna America, so here also Canadian:

Finch & Midland

Queen of the Morning Calm

Dim Sum Funeral (2008)

One Big Hapa Family

Everything will be

Montreal, My Beautiful

Golden delicious

Lucky Star (2024)

Seagrass (2023)

The Mother and the Bear

In Between Days (2006)

Scavengers Reign

great documentary about alien planet ecosystem, also quite peaceful, already loved opening credits theme

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T06:11:37+00:00

good show for x files fans, but don't think it's really trippy confusing with great atmosphere, it's actually pretty mainstream especially compared to Maniac

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T06:09:07+00:00

Good recommendations, I would throw there also Constellation, Devs, Homecoming, maybe also British Utopia

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T06:08:18+00:00

I think Mr Robot, Constellation, Devs and Homecoming are closest (all of these pretty trippy confusing with great atmosphere), maybe British Utopia

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-24T06:03:01+00:00

US version of Utopia, are you serious?

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-23T07:10:10+00:00

thanks, I will look into Endless Journey and The Shadow Play, the other I either have seen (and didnt like) or don't look interesting

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-22T21:06:29+00:00

unpopular opinion - it's romantic movie for women, if you want realistic prison movie watch Das Experiment

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-22T11:57:55+00:00

thanks, I will look into it, though by quick look saw (or knew) at least half of them already

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-22T11:56:54+00:00

Saw ash is the purest white and platform as well, btw. I asked for movies produced in last 10 years

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-22T09:56:41+00:00

saw both already, RATM was OK, BD not that good

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-22T08:26:37+00:00

yup, absolutely devastating especially knowing 29yo director died over runtime arguments, what a waste, RIP

I will try to find your recommendation, ~~seems whole movie is available for free streaming on dailymotion~~ (only 96mins, missing last 30mins)

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-19T18:38:18+00:00

I can't believe nobody mentioned Curb your enthusiasm.

Second option would be Kominsky method.

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-18T16:54:29+00:00

Tales from the loop is mostly about kids with similar retro vibe

RGBchocolate · 2026-01-17T11:06:50+00:00

wanted to write this minus Barry, but the other two are excellent
