Even though the storylines are very different, these two series have one major thing in common: gravitas
What do I mean by “gravitas” ? :
- It’s not sad or dark, I mean that the subject matter and tone are very mature: intelligence, power struggles, moral choices, alliances
- There are no oversimplifications or implausibilities in the storyline
- Human emotions run deep, and the dialogue is authentic : characters don’t speak just for the sake of speaking
- The camera knows how to capture a glance, a gesture, or a demeanor
- If you enjoy this atmosphere, the suspense becomes intense, and it’s very hard to look away
