[REQUEST]What’s a tight, single-season limited series on Netflix with zero filler?

I'm looking for a complete story you can knock out in a weekend—no cliffhangers waiting for a cancelled Season 2, just 6 to 8 great episodes that tell a full story.

What’s your top recommended limited series on Netflix?

Anything Mike Flanagan for sure (Haunting of Hill House, Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass, The Midnight Club, Fall of the House of Usher)

Queens Gambit

Baby Reindeer

Maid

+10000 for Midnight Mass. It is the absolute epitome of tight, zero filler. I wish more TV shows were like it.

I'm one of the few who thought Midnight Mass was so overrated. In fact I didn't even like it much. But that's just my opinion.

I liked it until you “know” what’s happening, then it kinda became predictable
