With an impressive cast and captivating storytelling , it's no surprise that viewers have been anxiously awaiting a much-anticipated third season . The dark and twisty narratives of that show are echoed in the incredible HBO limited series , Sharp Objects , which aired in 2018. If you're looking for something in a similar vein to binge, an underrated Apple TV series released two years ago actually combines the best aspects of both dramas .
You might have missed Disclaimer when it first aired in 2024 , but that doesn't mean you can't binge-watch it now. This seven-episode limited series follows several different characters, creating multiple perspectives that twist the story even further . We first meet Catherine Ravenscroft ( Cate Blanchett ), a successful journalist who seems to have a perfect life. She has a flourishing career, a doting husband, Robert ( Sacha Baron Cohen ), and a soft-spoken son, Nicholas ( Kodi Smit-McPhee ), but on closer inspection, Catherine's life holds a great deal of secrets and dysfunction.
When she receives a book on her doorstep that seemingly details the events of a past affair she had with a much younger man named Jonathan Brigstocke ( Louis Partridge ), Catherine's secrets are at risk of being exposed . The book has been written by Jonathan's father, Stephen ( Kevin Kline ), who has a serious bone to pick with Catherine, whom he blames for the unraveling of his family. What unfolds is a tumultuous, perilous journey as viewers gain more understanding of the events that transpired in these characters' lives.
