Shows that feel likeBEEF (2023–)

A road rage incident between two strangers — a failing contractor and an unfulfilled entrepreneur — sparks a feud that brings out their darkest impulses.

If you loved BEEF, the closest series we have are Russian Doll (2019), W (2016) and The Gentlemen (2024). All three share BEEF's witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Glory (2022).
