   • Longmire. A&E/Netflix (2012-2017) Based on: the Walt Longmire Mysteries by Craig Johnson. Six seasons of dawdling, dusty mysteries solved by a stoic Wyoming sheriff.
   • The Night Manager. AMC (2016) Based on: The Night Managerby John le Carré. It’s not exactly a faithful adaptation (though it isn’t too far off), but you can’t beat the cast—Tom Hiddleston and Hugh Laurie, plus Olivia Colman (always a delight), Elizabeth Debicki, and Tom Hollander—or the sumptuous production values (and scenery).
   • A Very English Scandal. BBC (2018) Based on: A Very English Scandal by John Preston. Excellent performances (whatever else he’s done, Hugh Grant kinda nails it here) and a riveting storyline make this three-part miniseries about the Jeremy Thorpe scandal fascinating television.
   • Roswell. The WB, UPN (1999-2002) Based on: the Roswell High series by Melinda Metz. Listen, who doesn’t like Roswell? Katherine Heigl, Shiri Appleby (who looks the exact same as she does now), and a bunch of other people who you would recognize if you went back and watched this show, which is about teenagers who make friends with aliens.
