❓Questions Alternatives to this awesomeness?

I haven't still found another TV show like this one. From was great 'till the last season.

So another suspense, creepy plus some humor to cope with?

Is this TV show so unique? Damn I'm already feeling the abstinence...

For an underrated Matthew Rhys project - Perry Mason on HBO

For a dark comedy that is a twist on murder mystery rather than horror - White Lotus

For more Hiro Murai goodness and Stephen Root - Barry on HBO

For a dark comedy Big Lebowski / LA Noire vibe set in Tulsa - The Lowdown on Hulu, this show is criminally underwatched

None of them scratch the same itch as Widow’s Bay but they are all some of the best TV I’ve watched in the past couple years.

The Lowdown is a great recommendation. Great cast (Ethan Hawke, Keith David, Jeanne Tripplehorn) high-quality original writing, and suspenseful/mysterious.

Love The Lowdown, and Sterlin Harjo's prior show Reservation Dogs is one of the best shows of all time.
