Cat-and-Mouse: Best Serial Killer, Psychological Battles and Psychopath Movies/Shows

Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, and Martin Short in Three Amigos! (1986)

I recommend a bunch of shows that lasted multiple seasons, still have tons of relevance and which mostly leave a positive impression/don’t lost most of their positive traits overtime.

Obviously tons of shows will be missing either because I feel they haven’t dated well, their last few seasons undid all the positives or because they got cancelled prematurely. But if they have two or more mostly solid seasons they can be contenders.
