I don't think the 2nd season of Andor would have hit as hard in any other year but this one.
Severance
Battlestar Galactica reboot.
Yep. Absolutely nailed the post-9/11 psyche.
Yes and no. It came at a time when TV makers weren't allowed to assume their viewers would watch every episode, in the right order. So while it does have a big overarching story, half the episodes are stupid filler episodes so people wouldn't fall too far behind it they missed one or two. If it were made a couple of years later they could have gone hard in every episode.
Black Mirror
Tiger King got me and my son through some dark times.
24 came out right after 9 11 and the original had the opening a plane crashing into a building (or something like that)
Lost comes to mind
Fallout.
A video game adaption that isn't hamstrung by idiots who don't know anything about the source material, and funded by a morally bankrupt cash daddy company to ensure it has the budget it needs to get everything right.
Also, a story based on America being shitty dictators and contributing to the nuclear apocalypse.
I disagree about Squid Game. I didn't see it until after the pandemic had become endemic, and the same is true of most of my friends. People still liked it.

The newer The Stand show, I guess. I mostly preferred the original, though.
