I’ve got a 10 hour plane ride next week, and I’ll be hanging round at the airport a lot. Any recommendations for an engaging but not too taxing drama?
Please nothing cliché or tacky eg suits, CSI etc
That Task show with Mark Ruffalo was pretty good.
Animes are always great on plane rides too. Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen, Golden Kamuy. All bangers
One show I don’t see mentioned a lot is Dark Matter, I really enjoyed that, although I don’t think the runtime will fill the full 10h.
One that is very good but not as widely known as I’d expect is The Americans from 2013.
Taskmaster. Pick a season or two.
Xena could be really good for this if you’re into action-flavored drama. It’s got fun fights, can be cheesy in the best way, and has really great relationships that feel lived-in, especially as the show goes on. Some episodes are real tear-jerkers and others are super lighthearted.
Fargo , Season 3
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. 3 extended tv movies that should run somewhere near 8 or 9 hours.
Please nothing cliché or tacky eg suits, CSI etc
Well then. Silent Witness is out!
The airport segments of traveling long distance are the worst. Especially if you also have a connecting flight somewhere along the way.
If I was taking my own stuff to watch, my go to would probably be comic book shit lol. Watchmen is a pretty good one that’s a relatively short one season show. Although pretty intense.
Not too sure of many other short and sweet series though. Apart from maybe new(ish) stuff that I’m gonna assume you’ve watched, like Fallout or Wednesday or whatever. What about Arcane? Haven’t played the game is based on but I thought it was good, and also not 5 seasons long so far.
Movies are always an option too. These days they seem to be averaging at 2 hours or more. Good time filler without needing further investment.
