Taskmaster drew me in and I binged it all. Now that I've watched the other shows and know the contestants a bit more, it's even more fun to rewatch! Taskmaster is a gem of a show, an absolute casserole!

I've always heard good things about Dark, the German show

Ya it's good

Very enjoyable.

Note that in order to enjoy Dark effectively you will need to dedicate a part of your home to a "crazy wall" to keep track of who is who.

I enjoyed it but I did have to stop mid way through season 3 because it just got too damn, well... dark.

Deadloch is a great Australian show about a murder in a rural town that was recently taken over by lesbian entrepreneurs and turned into an LGBT-friendly tourist destination. Bit of Mare of Eastown vibes, but more humor.

Black Books
Spaced
Truth Seekers
The IT Crowd as has already been suggested
That Mitchell & Webb Look and really anything by David Mitchell and Robert Webb
Toast of London
Rake, but the Australian version

I'm sure I'll think of some others to add, I know I'm forgetting a lot right now...

Toast of London is one of my favorite shows ever. Toast of Tinseltown is good too.

David Mitchell was good in Ludwig this year as well if anyone wants a crime procedural.

[–] LordCrom@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Toast of London is soooo good. Matt Berry is just next level

Luther. Peaky Blinders. The night manager. This is going to hurt. I may destroy you. This is England. Boiling point

Inside No. 9 is a "British black comedy anthology television programme" per Wikipedia.

Basically if you like Twilight Zone or Black Mirror, with a bit of British comedy, this show is for you.

Every episode has something worth watching, a handful are absolutely fantastic.

La Chica de Nieve (The Snow Girl)

My Brilliant Friend

The Fall

Black Books

Elite

La Casa de Papel (Money Heist)

I would also recommend Say Nothing though I don't know if that counts as "non-US" because while the series is set in Northern Ireland and stars an Irish and British cast it is still US produced.

Class of '07 - the best 'women trapped together and trying to survive' show, it's an Australian comedy

Troppo - Australian crime drama with Thomas Jane playing the grumpy dad figure

The Devil's Hour - go into this show without knowing what it's about, it's absolutely fantastic

Sin Huellas (No Traces) - Spanish crime comedy

[–] TastyWheat@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Speaking of Aussie comedies, Colin From Accounts is funny as hell too.

It's the name of the main character's dog, to set the tone.
