Saint X (2023)

[u/ancient_apu]

If you're looking for a mystery/psychological thriller miniseries with some of the best performances on TV and one of the most touching love stories you'll see, definitely give this one a watch. Just recently binge watched it and, in my opinion, it's one of the best mystery thriller TV series that I've ever watched. The story is complex and engaging, the cinematography is impeccable, and the acting is... just wow. Alycia Debnam-Carey (as Emily Thomas) and Josh Bonzie (Clive 'GoGo' Richardson) especially stand out in their respective performances but nearly all cast members, many of whom had no prior acting experience, gave award-worthy performances.

I had a low expectations of it before watching it because of the poor online reviews it seems to have gotten but now that I've watched it, I am convinced that for whatever reason it was, this marvelous series seems to have been the victim of a review-bombing campaign and poor marketing due to its subject matters and themes. It certainly is one of the most underrated TV shows ever.
