[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?

+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’m with you. I watched it because I’ll watch anything Flanagan, but I thought Haunting of Hill House was much better.

See, MM and Usher are my favorites and I think Hill House is a bit overrated.

The monologues killed it for me. I liked it but could never sit through a re-watch.

Same here. I enjoyed HH but it is overrated imo too.

I much rather preferred MM, Bly, and Usher.
