Top 10 Mystery/Thriller Dramas

Listing the Best Mystery/Thriller Dramas in order.  Since this List is genre-based, I did not separate them by country.

Disclaimer: “Best” differs from “Favorite” because although some of my favorites hold a special place in my heart, that doesn’t automatically make them the best. Likewise, I cannot claim my favorites to be the Best Dramas out there, because I think “Best Dramas” should be judged with a critical and non‑subjective eye, and usually are determined through a consensus by a majority. What I may think is my favorite may not really be deemed the best by others, and vice versa.

For me, best involves more appreciation beyond preference, acknowledging their excellence, while favorites are what resonated with me. 

Please note that my best‑of list is more stable than my favorites list, since it’s based on craft rather than mood. 

That said, even though these dramas are brilliantly made, they may not appear in my country‑specific favorite lists.
