(1) A lot of the stuff Netflix axed as soon as they hit three seasons instead of paying the guild mandated raises, like Santa Clarita Diet. Also on the subject of Netflix, the cancellation of Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance after one season was completely unforgivable, a really high quality labor of love that didn't deserve to be done in like this.
(2) Recency bias but Redliners by David Drake, I guess, military sci-fi should fit the style. It's the story of a mid-alien-war settler expedition in non-enemy territory that on the dl was supposed to work as a more active means of reintegrating it's guard detachment of ptsd'ed out veterans (the titular redliners) back into society, that goes immediately, terribly, awry.
(3) Matrix and Oldboy for perfecting various aspects of modern film-making into cultural milestonehood, but realistically any aspirant would probably be far better served by binging MST3K and Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.
(4) Star Trek, probably. Its parodies already seem more in the spirit of the original than the current series anyway.
