my experience has been that those kinds of shows are more likely to have characters that behave like high schoolers. more drama, impulsiveness, etc. i also find it frustrating when i’m watching a show and the characters do things that, in my opinion, don’t make any sense. i also don’t enjoy it much when the major plot points are about high school relationships.
i’m sure there are many shows that don’t fit into this characterization i’ve described, but my experience has been that they tend to be the exception rather than the norm. and there are only so many shows in the world that i will have time to watch. i’m not trying to say that shows about high schoolers are objectively bad either, just that they aren’t for me, in this stage of my life.
i always happy to recommend new tv shows. recently i’ve liked
better call saul.
severence.
kaos. (i’m still not really sure how they managed to pull that tv show off, but they did in my opinion)
dark.
snowfall.
lupin. (kind of silly and over the top but still fun in my opinion)
mindhunter (but they canceled it after 2 seasons after ending on a cliff hanger)
maid (2021)
maniac (2018)
chernobyl series on hbo.
some of these are stronger than others, but i enjoyed all of them and thought they were quite good. i also tried to make the list have a decent range. also my experience has been that the netflix descriptions of tv shows are just universally pretty terrible and i probably wouldn’t have watched many of these shows had i paid attention to the description.

Very fair. Resonates with me somewhat, tho I still come to the anime well for comfort vibes.
What kind of shows do you watch instead, care to recommend some?

Thanks! I’ve only seen two of those, will check them out for sure. Severance especially looks right up my ally.
