If you want a crime drama that treats its mystery as more than a puzzle, Manhunt is available in Australia on Stan and Lionsgate+ Amazon Channels, and in the US on MovieSphere+ Amazon Channel and Spectrum On Demand right now. The 2-season run is exactly the right length for what it is doing. 536 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Gethin Anthony leads a cast that carries the story without ever feeling mechanical. Start it on Stan whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Manhunt is worth clearing space for. Manhunt treats its mystery as a means, not an end in itself. Inspired by actual events, this true crime anthology series takes a deep dive into the dark, twisted minds of terrorists and follows the brave souls who hunt them down. Credit to Gethin Anthony and Arliss Howard for grounding it — this is a cast that earns the twists. 2 seasons (2017–2020) gave the story room most shows never get. What makes Manhunt hold up is that the resolution matters less than how the characters get there. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

For anyone who wants their crime drama to earn its twists, Manhunt delivers. Fans of Numb3rs will recognise the sensibility here immediately. Short enough to finish in a weekend, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Watch Gethin Anthony work — it is a masterclass in the genre. Few crime dramas earn their twists this consistently.

Manhunt wrapped up in 2020, created by Andrew Sodroski, Jim Clemente and Tony Gittelson — and 2 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
