10 Best TV Shows Like Emmy Rossum's Furious

Furious, the latest crime thriller on Hulu featuring Emmy Rossum, has quickly captured audiences' attention. The show follows Alice Black, an FBI agent on the trail of a serial killer who turns out to be a woman more like her than not. This cat-and-mouse dynamic is a common trope in crime stories, but Furious manages to put its own spin on it.

Drawing inspiration from 1980s crime media, Apple TV's The Crowded Room follows Daniel Keyes' non-fiction book The Minds of Billy Milligan. Tom Holland portrays Milligan's character, Danny Sullivan, a troubled individual whose motives in a 1979 shooting are revealed through interviews and sessions with interrogator Rya Goodwin, played by Amanda Seyfried. The series takes a darker, more psychologically-focused approach to crime and trauma compared to Furious.

Paramount+ offers Fatal Attraction, which takes its plot and title from another 1987 thriller starring Michael Douglas and Glenn Close. Joshua Jackson plays Deputy District Attorney Dan Gallagher, who starts an affair with Alex Forrest, played by Lizzy Caplan. The series has a similar dangerous dynamic between two individuals whose connection becomes more complicated as the story progresses.

Gillian Anderson, known for her role in The X-Files, stars in The Fall. Anderson plays English Detective Superintendent Stella Gibson, who is sent to Belfast to investigate serial killer Paul Spector. The show focuses on the dual perspective of the investigators and the killer, creating a distinct rhythm and tension.
