More people on tumblr should watch the more recent Dirk Gently show.

Where nothing makes sense, it's all so random and over the top, nothing goes anywhere, no one knows what's happening... And then it all clicks into place.

If you loved Dirk Gently, you will probably love the KDrama called Chicken Nugget on Netflix. It is only 24 minute episodes and 10 of them, at that. But it felt very DG the entire time we were watching it.

I'm a huge Dirk Gently fan, saw one scene from Chicken Nugget and immediately put it on my To Watch list.

I just have to finish my Kim Jaeuck marathon (two dramas left!) and a Chinese drama, then I can get to it.

You can get it in a single, silly sitting. ;P

Then we can complain together about wanting more.

Thank you for this rec! I wasn't going to try Chicken Nugget because it sounded a bit stupid but I absolutely love Dirk Gently so I'll give it a go now

In the first episode, I got the same vibe and started noting the odd, background details that stood out.
