2024 has so far been a bumper year for telly with a host of programmes that have seen ratings soar for some of our favourite channels.
Gripping Television
The now infamous Baby Reindeer has got many people talking over the first half of 2024. Centred around comedian Richard Gadd who finds himself subject to the attention of an overzealous admirer-turned-stalker, it is both entertaining and gripping.
So, too, is the series Criminal Record which is focused on London’s Metropolitan Police Service and a web of lies and corruption. You will not be able to stop watching this crime drama but it’s not for the faint-hearted!
Eric, starring Benedict Cumberbatch in a mesmerising performance, is another such drama. When his 9-year-old son Edgar goes missing after school, protagonist Vincent (Cumberbatch) falls down a confusing web of mental anguish, trying in vain to bring his son’s drawing to life.

More Chilled Viewing
After those crime dramas, you might be looking for an easier watch. Netflix’s One Day is a heartfelt series focusing on the love between Emma and Dexter who meet at college. As the series spans a 20-year period, it gives us ample time to get to know and fall in love with the characters.
Another epic is Interview with the Vampire. Already enjoying international acclaim, Season 2 looks more closely at Louis’ relationships with other people. With a unique sense of humour and a dark vibe, this is another one you’ll definitely lose yourself in.
Last but not least, Genius: MLK/X is a fascinating look at the lives of Martin Luther King Jr. and civil rights leader Malcolm X. It delves into their early lives and also examines their relationships with their wives. It is a truly inspiring look at two such important figures.
