What to Watch After You Finish Disclaimer*

Reporter Camille Preaker (Amy Adams) travels home to investigate the murder of two girls. As she works through the case, she realizes the victims are connected to her family—and their complicated history. Like Disclaimer*, this series relies on flashbacks to piece the story together, revealing small clues along the way.

Nicole Kidman stars as Grace Foster, a woman whose marriage is tested when a mother at her son’s school goes missing. Suddenly, she and her husband become part of the investigation—and as the mystery unfurls, Grace’s life descends along with it. This whodunit has a different vibe than Disclaimer*, but the pacing is equally gripping.

Consider this an evergreen reminder to revisit the stellar series. For the uninitiated, Big Little Lies follows the mothers of Monterey, California, who are connected by—you guessed it—a secret. When a man mysteriously dies at a school fundraiser, investigators look to the townspeople to uncover what happened. Big Little Lies and Disclaimer* have a similarly grim undertone, in the sense that lies and fraught reputations play a crucial role in the narrative.

Like Disclaimer*, Cruel Summer uses dual perspectives to challenge the viewer. The series follows two young girls, Kate Wallis and Jeanette Turner. When Kate goes missing, Jeanette becomes a key suspect in her disappearance. Told over the course of three years, Cruel Summer explores how one shared event can change the course of people’s lives.

Hulu

Professor Jason Desson (Joel Edgerton) is tossed into an alternate version of his life. As he races against time to regain control of his world, he discovers a nefarious plot working against him. This series doesn’t have the same structure as Disclaimer*, but the mystery is just as compelling.

Shortly after a family moves into their dream house, a person dubbed “The Watcher” sends them mysterious letters in the mail. At first, they think it’s a perverse neighborhood joke—but as the letters grow more ominous, they fear no one can be trusted. Here, the letters double as narration that tests the audience’s perspective. Like Disclaimer*, we’re forced to connect the dots alongside the protagonists.

Lady in the Lake is based on Laura Lippman’s novel of the same name. Natalie Portman portrays Maddie Schwartz, a housewife who is enticed by an unsolved murder. As she’s sucked into the case, Maddie’s motives are questioned. Why does she care so much, anyway? Like Catherine Ravenscroft’s, Maddie’s past is a major part of the mystery.

Season 1 of The Sinner stars Jessica Biel as Cora Tanetti, a housewife who inexplicably stabs a man on the beach. The incident prompts an investigation ripe with twists and turns. I don’t want to spoil anything, but here’s a hint: Just as Disclaimer* suggests, our perspectives are always limited.
