Adolescence

One of the best mini series of this year, Adolescence was four episodes of near perfection. Appearing on Netflix, this show is about the murder of a young girl by a young boy. And it is absolutely brilliant.

Owen Cooper played the 13-year old Jamie and his performance has earned him an Emmy nomination. His work on episode three was spectacular as it was basically him and Erin Doherty in the episode.

The episodes are also shot with a continuous one shot which was unbelievable. I can’t imagine how they shot this and how these actors were able to deliver their lines without any chance for error. It is an amazing accomplishment.

It is this low on the list because it only had four episodes, but those four are so amazing. I initially intended on watching one a week, but, I started on a Sunday and wound up binging the entire thing on that day. It was so compelling and great.
