Ones that are from the last few years and really capture the feeling of the 80s.

No, not really. They're all varying degrees of parody these days.

The Americans is a really, really great quality TV show but I really don't think it captures the 80s all that well. But I don't know if it really tries to set out to, either. At any rate, it technically is set in the 80s...

I second The Americans.

Also GLOW is pretty good.
Snowfall has a great A plot, but pretty bad B and C plots

This is an exceptional opinion. This show, both seasons, are excellent. Season 3 just started.

Glow and Stranger Things are great options also.

I just had to give credit to eggcorn here for knowing what Hap & Leonard is and how good it is.

Why the fuck would you respond like this?

Stranger Things takes place entirely in the 80s. Season 2 was 84. We're getting 85 next and it will be epic.

Because i'm not an expert in the exact year the shows I like take place, I assumed this poster was correct, didn't give a shit enough to research it and prove him wrong, but still wanted to stress it was worth watching regardless.

It's just that that poster should be humiliated and ripped apart and your post acts like they're correct.

That's not really a useful reaction...No need to humiliate/rip apart because of a simple inaccurate statement. We're all humans here, we make mistakes

I didn't think it mattered that much to be honest, and I'm not the kind of poster who aims to humiliate and rip apart other users.

Now we know, and knowing is half the battle.
