Looking for recommendations for types of shows that give the same sort of emotional release that the end of Maniac does.

Other shows with similar types of things that I have in mind that follow emotionally fragile characters who, at the end, find their happiness or peace:

Devs Dark (with the time machine scientist getting through/changing his trauma) Haunting of Hill House (specifically how Luke overcomes his addiction)

I think generally in looking for shows that core component or story is not necessarily a love story, but something else (sci fi and horror definitely tickle my fancy the most), but have an emotionally fragile man finding his way and overcoming his demons or finally finding love through whatever the larger narrative is.

Other sort of similarr things:

Desmond on the phone with Penny in Lost and reuniting with her Jack coming to terms with his role in Lost Charlie and Hugo as well.

Looking for shows that have exciting and thrilling plotlines that will get me to cry at a moment of catharthis for a character. Happy crying preferred but either is fine!

Recommend whatever pops into your head that seems to fit this vague mold lol!
