Female-lead detective show recs? Anonymous 39838
Does anyone have any good/decent detective show recs? I've been very into female-lead miniseries lately, some of which happen to be about detectives.
I recently watched Mare of Easttown (pic related) which I found very entertaining and respectful of its treatment of its characters. I enjoyed how fleshed out and human the female characters felt.
I also just finished watching Furious, about an FBI detective following a "serial killer" who targets men who sexually trafficked her. I thought it was respectful and intriguing as well, it could've easily have been an exploitative show in regards to the sexual trauma the women endure but I found that it was very sensible. The ending wasn't perfect and the writing imo wasn't as good as Mare of Easttown but I still found it very good to watch.
I also watched Sharp Objects, where Amy Adams' character isn't really a detective but its still kind of about a woman investigating stuff.
And just today I finished rewatching True Detective s1 but that's because I would like to have sex with Rust Cohle.
(I have also seen True Detective s4 because I was intrigued by Jodie Foster's character, and found it a bit trite but with stunning visuals)
What about you? Do you girls have any show recs about female detectives? Preferably miniseries. Also, have any of you seen any of the shows I mentioned? What did you think of them?

>>39841>>39840I watched X-files growing up, I've actually been meaning to rewatch it because as a child it made me a bit scared and I didn't understand all of it… Thank you for mentioning it, I'll definitely rewatch it this year
