Spiral is over. What are we supposed to watch now?!?
When a long running TV series like Spiral (Engrenages) is over, the feeling one is left with can be similar to that of a relationship ending. Especially if that series grabs you by the lapels, captivates you and forces you to truly care about what happens to the characters in the story. Now that brilliant French drama Spiral has taken its final bow, all of us here at MHz Choice have been saying, “Spiral, how can you leave us! Don’t go!”
But alas, such is life. To help get through this loss, we’ve put together a list of MHz Choice dramas that we think all of us who are missing Spiral will enjoy.
