    Scrubs immediately comes to mind, though it’s not a very current reference. I still listen to Colin Hay thanks to these scenes. And this one.

    Silicon Valley. The songs they played at the end of every episode were pretty much universally bangers.

    Not a show, but Tales From the Borderlands introduced me to Jungle, possibly my favourite music artist right now, as well as a few other gems.

      The episode intro with “To The Top” by Twin Shadow is amazing.

    Breaking Bad & Atlanta both had many new discoveries for me. Twin peaks s3 had some amazing music but I was aware of the majority of the artist beforehand

    Edit: add Sharp Objects. Amazing sound design and found a few new gems

    The Top Gun soundtrack definitely sets the standard.

    The Americans. Whoever did the soundtrack for that show was amazing. Really great 80s music.

      Agreed on The Americana

      Justified introduced me to modern gangsta crossover folk music

    Definitely Arcane for a start. I’ll probably think of others later.

    Smallville always had well curated songs for each episode… at the time some were fairly obscure bands

      Katey Sagal’s cover of Bird on a Wire is one of most extraordinary things ever recorded. Tears every time.

      Songs of Anarchy is pretty brilliant all around.

      Sons of anarchy had some really good cover versions of songs (or a specific song I don’t remember)

      It was very good but rubbed me the wrong way for some weird random reason

    Letterkenny introduced me to Japanther, Black Mountain, DZ Deathrays, and a bunch of other bands that would never hit my recommendations on any streaming services.
