Chernobyl has just started, but it is almost over! That means it is time to vote for a new show! This show being voted on will be another "short" show. The criteria for this is any show with episodes 1 hour long (MAX of 40 episodes/40 total hours) or any show with half hour episodes (MAX of 80 episodes/40 total hours).

If a show has episodes in between a half hour and a hour, make sure that the total show length is 40 hours or less. Any show recommended in the comments that exceed the 40 hour limit will not be counted.

Please list the amount of episodes/hours in the show you comment if possible!

If you have any questions about this please leave them in the comments! The goal for this system is to have more shows and more voting more often! There will still be voting for longer shows in the future, so don't worry!

Remember if you like a show that someone else has already commented, please like their comment. Do not comment it again because it won't count.

Leave your show suggestions in the comments below! The first poll will start this Friday!

Can't wait to see what the next show is!

I feel like with Fallout not being finished it would be better to wait. Though I'd love to see his reaction especially to the first episode :D But I think it is better to wait.

Ghost Mom

Sense8 - 24 episodes

Patrick Bartsch

I want to throw in Yellowjackets. I'm sure, Tom would love to analyze the characters of this show. Yellowjackets has a total of 29 episodes across three released seasons. Season 1 contains 10 episodes, Season 2 consists of 9 episodes, and Season 3 consists of 10 episodes. The show has also been renewed for a fourth and final season. The fourth and final season of Yellowjackets does not have an official release date yet, but it is expected to premiere on Showtime in late 2026. Production is currently underway in Vancouver, British Columbia, and is slated to wrap up in late July 2026.

Olive_Sandy

This would be such an interesting show for Tom to react to!

Olive_Sandy

This would be such an interesting show for Tom to react to!

AJ23

Excellent choice

Peckáč

that one would be amazing with tom

Ferenc Varga

Cesar

Wayne 2019 1 season 10 episodes

Cesar

“The Act” (2019) 1 season, 8 episodes.

Gavin West

Bojack Horseman. The show is so on-point when it comes to mental health topics and serious things, as well as having a lot of comedy. It is literally the perfect show for this channel.

Kinsey D

Yellowjackets! Would love your opinion on some of those characters lol.

Clara V.

The Good Place (really good comedy with plenty of depth) - 53 episodes around 20 minutes each (standard sitcom length, though there are a couple of two-parters that may or may not play as one episode depending on where you'd watch it)

ammogreed

Only 7. 6 hours and a masterpiece

ammogreed

It was already suggested go like that comment

Aryan Baviskar

The Strain (4 seasons, 46 episodes, approximately 45 min episodes)

ammogreed

The leftovers 28 hrs

kalindi

ooh this is such an underrated show! John Simms kills it as the lead, hell yeah

Hyperion

Helluva Boss 21 episodes 7 hours 45 minutes

Hyperion

The Office (US) 201 Episodes = 76 hours and 42 minutes

Viktor

MINDHUNTER! Its soooo good! Directed by David Fincher with 19 episodes. Very good psychologically. It follows the start of the serial killer era from the FBIs pov! Great performances from the cast in this show and the directory is TOP TIER!

Brendan McDarby

Welcome to the N.H.K, 24 episodes = 8 hours

Viktor

Same director as fight club, se7en, the social network and Zodiac!

Joe Lazarus

Six Feet Under, The Haunting of Hill House , LOST

Jesse James

Poker Face, the one with Natasha Lyonne. it is an on going show but you could technically just watch season 1 and only season 1 and it would make sense. It's about 10 hours.

Stephanie Skelton

SO good!! I just finished season 4 and wow!! Tom would love this!

Stephanie Skelton

Schitt’s Creek! 5 seasons, 80 episodes, roughly 24 min each - after the sadness and emotional rollercoasters of some of the shows Tom has watched, he deserves something to put a smile on his face!!

Scriptlet

Alice in Borderland. 3 seasons of average hour long episodes 8 episodes for season 1 and 2 5 episodes last season but a little longer episodes just barely over an hour idk if that makes it okay

LincolnD

Squid game 22 episodes please!!!

rene

Hey Tom! I'd highly recommend Escape at Dannemora. It's a 7 Ep miniseries based on the insane true story of two convicted murderers who escaped a maximum security prison with the help of a prison employee. Benicio del Toro and Paul Dano are incredible. And with all the manipulation, bizarre relationships, and psychological dynamics at play, it feels almost tailor made for a therapist to react to. Super underrated and definitley worth considering.

Suzanne

Six Feet Under is a dark, character‑driven HBO drama about the Fisher family, who run a funeral home in Los Angeles. It’s widely considered one of the greatest TV series ever made, praised for its writing, emotional depth, and its honest exploration of death, grief, and family

rene

Lost gets my vote

Robby Dodds

Peaky Blinders - 35 hours

Clara V.

That's over 70 hours lol

Jacob Cannon

would be a dark but incredible journey for this channel lol

Jacob Cannon

got my heart and vote forever

The Apocalex

11-22-63 based on the stephen king novel only 8 episodes long with a 1 hour first episode.

Blairl1874

Adolescence, it only has 4 episodes just under 4 hours all together.

Erin

I was going to recommend Six Feet Under again, but Wikipedia clocks it at 63 hours 😩 Wish you had more time, it’s such a great series.

Steven Quinn

Newsroom 3 seasons maybe 20 episodes total.

KrakenKing

Bojack Horseman, of course.

thestormguard

The Legend of Vox Machina is an animated show of 48 episodes running around 25-30 minutes each with a run time of about 21 hours The Mighty Nein is a small animated show of 8 episodes with varying lengths ranging around the 40 minute mark with a run time a little over 6 hours both of these shows are still being worked on, Vox machina having one more season to release before finishing.

Bee

Band of Brothers - 10 episode 11 hours and 45 minutes

Dashed

Dark! 26 episodes 3 seasons for 26 hours . One of the best shows I’ve seen

Adrian

Pluribus ! Or I just started Widows Peak on Apple TV that show has been good so far.

Angelica Albanese

I ditto Fallout. It's fine that it's not finished yet, it's going to take years for it to finish. The plan is 5-6 seasons, so it'll be several years before the series actually finishes.

Angelica Albanese

I apologize if I missed this in the 100+ comments I just read through but Legend of Korra. It's only 4 Books/seasons. And like Avatar the Last Airbender they are all about 22mins long, so you could watch 2-4 episodes at a time. Book 1: Air | 12 episodes Book 2: Spirits | 14 episodes Book 3: Change | 13 episodes Book 4: Balance | 13 episodes Total: 52 episodes, roughly around 19-20 hours in total if my mental math is right?

Snow

it’s right over idk how strict he’s gonna be lol might as well try

Ceylen

We’ve been waiting for too long🙏🏼🙏🏼

James L

Hopefully we get it this time

Grok_The_Golem

You should watch The Days! It's similar to Chernobyl, only it covers the Fukushima accident in japan after a tsunami. It's really interesting seeing the japanese perspective of things.

KrakenKing

If people act mature and don’t throw votes out of spite or ignorance, we should have this in the bag.

BugBite23

Solo Leveling is amazing! I've read all of it and I think they are doing a great job with the show so far!

Gerald Nugent

Great pick, he’d be going through it watching this lol

Jake

True Detective. Season one only though! (Each season has a unique story+cast)

Josie

We really enjoyed both the show and the manga too! :)

Avery

Succession. 39 episodes, 39 hours

Chris Unknown

I mean they are being pretty clear in original post. lol that nothing will count if it's over 40.

TreeBee

Mob psycho 100 please 🙏

TreeBee

Mob psycho 100 please 🙏 37 episodes, 15 hours

Sarah Rosa

TED LASSSO PLS I BEG🥺🥺 34 episodes!!!!

Anika

The Good Place (19 hours, 53 episodes, 4 seasons)

TreeBee

Mob psycho 100 please 🙏 37 episodes N 15 hours

kalindi

Six Feet Under would be an incredible watch for Tom, mental health wise! So much to unpack with literally all of the characters lol Unfortunately, someone else said it was 63 hours total, so far too long for what he's looking for

Chris Unknown

I want LOST more than anything, but gotta read the main post guys. He's asking for shows under 40 hours total. Save the LOST votes for big show votes.

LAD

Scavengers Reign 12 episodes, <30min pls 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥹🥹🥹🥺

Jo

Firefly 14 episodes (11 hours) plus movie ( 2 hours). Just 13 hours. And sooo good! 🤞

Naomi

Adolescence is another short but reaaally good 4 episode show

LSTER

Deadwood! 36hrs

Sam Morrow

The agency: central intelligence 2 seasons, 20 episodes, 20 hours

The Apocalex

but its so bad, lore inaccurate and woke as hell

Ece

I second this!

Lee Essig

Alice in Borderland 3 seasons 22 episodes in total 22 hours

Kev-la-kill

I will pay $100 for your professional disection of this show.

LincolnD

I honestly think this might have a chance of winning

Anika

Which True Detective is this that has 1 season? I only found one with 4 seasons. Is there another one?

Ethan Pritchard

I dont think I saw it but Preacher! 4 Seasons with 43 episodes at 45 minute runtimes with a few longer episodes. I know it’s 43 episodes but after the math it’s about 34-35 hours roughly. A more wackier one but I think there’s some deeper cut stories within the chaos. Similar to fallout in a way

Cold Alec

Suggested anime: Vinland saga, a lot of character development super peak. Two seasons of it. 48 episodes total.

Cold Alec

Yessir. Itll be interesting to see the perspective of a therapist on this show!

Dean Costa

Not sure if Mr In between had been mentioned but anyone who’s seen it will definitely agree, it’s one of the best shows out there. Short, sharp, funny, dangerous, chaotic, super realistic and sometimes pulls on the heart strings. Definitely an interesting show for a psychologist. You will thank me later 3 season, 12 eps each, half an hour episodes.

Scott Foreman

Would be really interesting to see how he interprets Tommy

Lee Shafer

The Good Place , It's total run episodes of 19 and a half hours it's a comedy 53 episodes in total 4 seasons averaging 22 min an episode. It's different from most shows .

kalindi

that's almost double the 40-hour limit

Hyperion

Theres a not zero percent chance it could happen

Brandon D.

The Orville - 36 episodes. Super funny and interesting moral dilemmas

Theresa

😑 I’ll admit my spoiled ass is bothered I have homework 🤣. I’ll be back…

Samiah B

Dune: Prophecy . Szn 1 is only 6 Episodes!

Stephen L

Edward

Wolfy! Wolfi! Wolfé!

Eternaut, it's amazing,r Midnight Mass or the Haunting of Blye Manor They are all limited series so 6-8 episodes I believe. And Eternaut I hear is going to get one more season.

Bryan Sanchez

Narcos México I believe you’ll like it a lot, there’s a lot of good characters and the story line is like no other

DOGFACE

Orphan Black 50 episodes averaging 40-45 minutes long

Gigi

Yes it would be entertaining to get his take in the characters

Johnster
