MYSTERIOUS BENEDICT SOCIETY: simply the *best* show that everyone is sleeping on. It's sharp, charming and kind without being saccharine.

Has its own inimitable sense of humor: a sailor just introduced himself as "Officer Zhao, but my nom d'océan is Cannonball." Image A lot of stories about gifted kids - A Series of Unfortunate Events, for instance - tend to act as if being well-read makes you morally superior. This show, on the other hand, sees this more in a "to whom much has been given, much is expected" sort of way. Image

Presentism has really started to colonize every "historical" adaptation lately - Bridgerton accelerated the effect but didn't start it. Do modern audiences really have no stomach for faithful language/behavior or is it just that producers don't know how to create it? My suspicion is that with the older generation of Shakespeareans fading away, thus fades a more conservative temperament in adapting classic works as well.
