What has been the best thing you have watched so far in 2026?

Halfway through the year and I want to take stock. The volume of content has become genuinely difficult to navigate and I find I have watched things that I half-remember but cannot fully recommend because they were fine rather than good. Looking for the things that were actually good.

Could be a new series, could be a film you finally got around to, could be something from an earlier year that you discovered this year. Recency is less important than quality of recommendation.

A documentary I watched on a streaming service I almost cancelled. Three episodes, a subject I knew almost nothing about, and by the end I had completely rearranged some assumptions I had held for years. Will not name it because the discovery should be your own.

I finally watched the second season of something I had put off because I expected it to be worse than the first. It was better. I do not know how to process this information but I recommend the experience.
