The Best PC Games to Play in 2025
15. Curb Your Enthusiasm
Curb Your Enthusiasm already was a movie (sort of)—that HBO mockumentary proved Larry’s petty disasters work better without commercial breaks. A film could take one gloriously terrible day (lost reservations, botched funerals, A-list cameos melting down) and crank it to Uncut Gems levels of cringe-comedy. | © HBO
14. Brooklyn 99
Brooklyn Nine-Nine works because it’s more than just jokes. This show is a found family in clip-on ties. A movie could throw the 99th into a wild, high-stakes case (wedding heist? witness protection gone wrong?) while sneaking in those signature emotional gut-punches. | © NBC
13. Battlestar Galactica
Battlestar Galactica wasn’t about spaceships—it was about flawed people making brutal calls under the weight of extinction. A film could zero in on one make-or-break mutiny or Cylon ambush, with the same moral dread and viper dogfights that made the show legendary. | © ABC
12. The Wire
The Wire works because this show feels real - no glamour, just the grind of Baltimore’s cops and kingpins. A prequel film could strip it down to Avon and Stringer’s early days, back when the game was simpler but just as deadly. | © HBO
11. Peaky Blinders
Peaky Blinders isn’t just a show, it's a mood. The slow walks, the sharper suits, the whispered threats over whiskey. A film could condense Tommy’s final chess move into two hours of pure style, where every glance and gunshot feels like a damn poem. | © Netflix
10. Supernatural
Supernatural’s recipe is simple: two brothers, one classic car, and endless monsters to punch. A movie could strip it back to season one’s vibe, no apocalypses, just Sam and Dean vs. one gnarly urban legend, with AC/DC blasting all the way to the credits. | © Warner Bros. Television
9. The Defenders
The Defenders had all the pieces of a killer team-up movie—clashing egos, a slick restaurant showdown, and a bombastic finale, but got buried under filler and Hand monologues. Trim it down to a tight two hours? You’d have The Avengers with more street-level grit and way better hallway fights. | © Netflix
8. The Last Of Us
The Last of Us already showed how a zombie story could be more about broken people than broken cities—Joel and Ellie’s road trip through hell had more soul than most dramas. A movie could tighten the tension or even spin off into something new, as long as it keeps that raw, ugly-beautiful heart. | © HBO
7. Dexter
Dexter made us root for a serial killer with a day job, blurring lines between justice and vengeance in a way that still stings. A film could ditch the TV baggage and zero in on one razor-sharp cat-and-mouse game—no loose ends, just that signature Miami gloom and gore. | © Showtime Networks
6. Bridgerton
Bridgerton's addictive mix of lavish romance, scandal, and modern twists on Regency drama is practically made for the big screen. A movie could condense its most swoon-worthy love story into one dazzling, feature-length period piece, with even grander balls and bigger reveals. | © Netflix
5. Community
"Six seasons and a movie" started as a joke, but now a Community film could deliver, with the original cast (mostly) back and Dan Harmon writing, it’s got the hype and talent to pull it off. A full-length meta comedy could go bigger with the show’s signature genre parodies, turning those iconic paintball battles into one wild ride. | © Sony Pictures Television
4. Narcos
Narcos already proves that Escobar's ruthless rise makes for gripping drama, but a movie could zero in on one explosive chapter with even sharper intensity. With so many real-life cartel stories left untold, a film could dive into another kingpin’s reign with the same gritty, high-stakes style fans love. | © Netflix
3. Chernobyl
Chernobyl could easily become a gripping two-hour thriller, focusing on the explosion’s chaos and the desperate fight to prevent another disaster. With its Emmy-winning pedigree and cinematic production value, a condensed film version would feel just as intense, if not more, on the big screen. | © HBO
2. Halo
Halo already has a blockbuster-ready story. The first game’s three-act structure is practically begging to be a movie, with its explosive Flood reveal and epic showdown. A film could ditch the side plots, focus on Master Chief’s core mission, and turn that TV-level budget into one tight, action-packed ride. | © Paramount+
1. Stranger Things
Stranger Things has the perfect balance between nostalgia and fresh storytelling, blending '80s vibes with supernatural thrills and small-town mysteries. A movie could dive deeper into unexplored backstories, like Hawkins Lab’s origins or Hopper’s past, giving fans even more of the world they love. | © Netflix
