5 TV Shows To Watch If You Like East Of Eden
Netflix's new East of Eden has viewers hooked on sweeping historical drama. If you want more messy families and big stakes, these five shows are worth a watch.
1. If you enjoyed the riveting psychological drama of East of Eden, there are several other TV shows that may captivate you. These shows offer compelling character development and exploration of changing historical times.
2. War & Peace, a BBC One miniseries adapted from Leo Tolstoy's epic novel, is a great alternative. It follows Russian society through the Napoleonic Wars and delves into complex romantic struggles and existential crises.
3. Another historical drama worth considering is Pachinko. This Japanese series, centered around three generations of a Korean-Japanese family, mirrors the generational trauma seen in East of Eden.
4. The Deuce, an HBO show, explores the rise of power and wealth through the lens of a burgeoning brothel industry in New York City during the 1970s. Its standout character, Candy, shares similarities with Cathy from East of Eden.
5. Mildred Pierce, a 2011 miniseries starring Kate Winslet, is a psychological drama set in 1930s-1940s California. Like Cathy, Mildred and her daughter exhibit ambition and disregard for conventional morals, making it a must-watch for fans of East of Eden.
