BingeNext's take

If you’re into shows that mix sci-fi with a gripping mystery and some serious drama, Devs is a great pick. It follows Lily Chan, a young computer engineer who starts digging into the secretive development division of her tech company in San Francisco after her boyfriend’s murder. The show has a thoughtful, intense vibe that pulls you in without feeling overwhelming, and with just one season of eight episodes, it’s easy to binge without a huge time commitment. The cast, including Sonoya Mizuno and Nick Offerman, brings a lot of depth to the story, making the tech-heavy plot feel personal and emotional. If you liked the smart storytelling of Black Mirror or the suspense of Person of Interest, Devs offers a similar mix of intrigue and futuristic ideas that’s both thought-provoking and entertaining. It’s perfect for a weekend when you want something that makes you think but also keeps you hooked.
