The streaming giant continues to tie us to the screen with amazing content. Some TV shows do not only give us goosebumps with every episode but they also offer a solid plot, interesting characters, and brilliant actors. Snowpiercer, which is originally based on a bestselling novel, is definitely one of them.

The show focuses on a thousand-cars-long train called the Snowpiercer. The always-moving train rounds the post-apocalyptic earth that is unlivable due to extreme cold. So the last hope of humanity is this huge vehicle filled with 3000 people and their relationships, ambitions, dreams, and dilemmas. Snowpiercer has received critical acclaim with its first two seasons. The show stars some of the most talented actors and actresses as well. Jenniffer Connely, Sean Bean, and Daveed Diggs play the leading characters of the show.
