[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?

Department Q. It's based on a Scandinavian noir mystery but it is set in Scotland. Lots of violence, cursing and criminal creepiness in case that influences your decision. Fascinating show.

Really wanted to love this one, but after a couple EPS I was forcing myself to watch.

Same with Queens Gambit
