In the opening scene of Netflix's new dramedyThe Chair, Sandra Oh's character Dr Ji-Yoon Kim walks into her new office.

She opens a package that's sitting on the desk. It's a plaque that reads: F*CKER IN CHARGE Of You F*cking F*cks.

It's a bloody brilliant opening scene and a good indicator of what's to come.

The six-part series, which dropped on Netflix in August, explores race and privilege, the battle between the old world order and the new, and the fact that sometimes getting everything you want is the worst thing that can possibly happen to you.

It's also wickedly funny and there's a smattering of David Duchovny in budgie smugglers.

Cruel Summeris a dirty little thriller that will have you hooked from the very first episode.

The series follows 'cool girl' Kate Wallis (Olivia Holt) and nerd Jeanette Turner (Chiara Aurelia) over the summers of 1993, 1994, and 1995. In 1993, Jeanette is admiring Kate's life from afar. By 1994, Kate has disappeared and Jeanette has stepped into her life. And by the summer of 1995, Kate is back, and she has accused Jeanette of being complicit in her disappearance.

Watch it if you like:The 90s, mysterious disappearances, The Cranberries, and one final twist.

The White Lotus

I love watching rich people doing terrible things.

And that's exactly whatThe White Lotusis about. It's a dark comedy, with a pinch of murder, that sends up mostly white, rich, privilege people and how they view their place in the world.

It also tackles race relations, the generational divide, and... public poos.

The cast is phenomenal and includes Jennifer Coolidge at her best, Connie Britton, Steve Zahn and Australia's very own Murray Bartlett.

Did I mention there's a wee bit of murder?

Watch it if you like:Rich people doing terrible things, your tropical holidays with a side of murder, and surprising... poos.

Mare of Easttown

It's hard to sum up the brilliance that isMare of Easttown.

It's a crime drama, and a mystery, and at times a comedy, but it's also a study of the human condition.

The series stars a greasy pony-tailed Kate Winslet as Detective Mare Sheehan, Jean Smart as her mum, an unexpectedly attractive Evan Peters as her partner Detective Colin Zabel, and Guy Pearce as her mysterious silver fox love interest.

Mare is juggling work with caring for her young grandson and grieving the loss of her own son, when a local girl's body is found in the woods.

It's A Sin

It's been eight months since I first watchedIt's A Sin, but I still think about it often.

The mini-series was both one of the most heartbreaking and life-affirming TV shows I have ever watched.

It was created by critically-acclaimed screenwriter and television producer, Russell T Davies, whose previous works includeQueer as Folk,andYears and Years.

Set in London in the 1980s and 1990s, the series follows a group of young friends who are discovering who they are and who they love, and living their best lives in London's vibrant gay scene, just as the AIDS crisis hits.

It's not an easy watch, but it's an important one. One of the most brilliant and beautiful series of the year,It's A Sinwill make you laugh out loud in one scene, and bawl your eyes out in the next.

Watch it if you like:Crying into your chips, brilliant storytelling, and hearing the stories behind the headlines.

You can watch It's A Sin on Stan now.

Ted Lasso

I think if I could choose what heaven looks like it would involve me sitting on a comfy couch, eating chips, while Ted Lasso gives me inspirational speeches and Roy Kent yells at me a little.

That is how much joy I get from watchingTed Lasso.

The series stars Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso, an American college football coach who is unexpectedly recruited to coach an English Premier League team, AFC Richmond, despite having no experience in association football.

And knowing absolutely nothing about the game.

What makesTed Lassosuch a brilliant TV show is the main character's relentless positivity in the face of adversity. And Roy Kent's relentless... swearing.

It's heartwarming and funny and exactly what we need right now.

Watch it if you like:Moustaches, being an underdog, calling tea 'hot brown water' and yellin' a lot.

The entire first season of Ted Lasso is streaming on Apple TV+ now, and new episodes are dropping weekly.
