Shows that feel likeCarrie (2026)
If you loved Carrie, the closest series we have are Another (2012), WandaVision (2021) and Broadchurch (2013). All three share Carrie's twisty and contemplative feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Diplomat (2023).
If Carrie hit the spot, these will too

The same preoccupation in both: supernatural
The difference: Takes it somewhere less dreamlike than Carrie does

One thread runs through both: miniseries

Both land twists and stillness at once
The difference: Trades the ideas of Carrie for an angle of its own

Both keep coming back to the same thing: high school

Mike Flanagan working the same nerve twice

Common ground: miniseries
The difference: Leans harder into action & adventure than Carrie does

Drama with a pulse of melancholy, in both cases
The difference: Sits closer to war & politics than Carrie does

Mike Flanagan directing both, with the same fingerprints on each

Cerebral where it counts, dreamlike underneath

Both are built on the same subject: high school

Both lean on twists more than on mystery

Contemplative sci-fi & fantasy, and it commits to that
