Whether you’re in the mood for a gripping mystery set against a fantastical backdrop or a drama-infused journey through the world of rock music, here are two series that should not be missed this weekend.

Eric (Netflix)

Loosely based on true events and carried by a very compelling performance by lead actors, especially Benedict Cumberbatch, Eric surfs through the imaginative world of puppets and ties it all down to a chase to find a missing child and clean up dirty politics.

When young Edgar Vincent goes missing on his way to school, his parents and the NYPD are out on a chase to find him but end up unravelling mysteries that lie beneath the city and within themselves.

Director Lucy Forbes and the writers of the show use the magical world of puppets and tie it down to reality to tell a convincing yet engaging story of parenthood, coming-of-age, and the reality of the underbelly of a crippling society.

Daisy Jones & The Six (Amazon Prime)

Riley Keough portrays Daisy Jones, a talented vocalist who collaborates with Billy Dunne, the lead singer of the already iconic rock group The Six.

Their joint musical abilities and volatile relationships drive them to greater levels of fame. Nevertheless, as they release their debut album, the band contends with personal conflicts, substance abuse, and the intense connection between Daisy and Billy.

The cast performs convincingly, mixing the world of music with the tunes of power, romance and load of drama. Securing many awards for performance and nominations as a standout series, this mini-series is a definite addition to your binge list.
