5 shows for The Lincoln Lawyer fans to watch while waiting for season 4

WARNING: This article contains spoilers from The Lincoln Lawyer.

The fourth series of The Lincoln Lawyer is currently in the pipeline, but what can fans watch to fill the void in the meantime?

Manuel Garcia-Rulfo will be reprising his role as the charismatic Mickey Haller in the fourth instalment of Netflix's The Lincoln Lawyer, which is now in post-production.

In the last episode we saw of Mickey, he was in a world of trouble after the body of Sam Scales (played by Christopher Thornton) was found in the boot of his car. But who could have framed him?

It's believed that The Lincoln Lawyer won't return until sometime in early 2026, so here are five Netflix shows fans can immerse themselves in while they wait for its comeback, reports the Daily Record.

Bodyguard

The gripping political thriller Bodyguard, which first premiered as a BBC drama in 2018, centres on Police Sergeant David Budd (portrayed by Richard Madden) who is tasked with protecting Home Secretary Julia Montague (Keeley Hawes).

Despite their political differences, the sexual tension is undeniable, but can the married British Army veteran avoid crossing the line between their personal and professional relationship?

With its unexpected plot twists and standout performances from Line of Duty's Keeley Hawes and Game of Thrones star Richard Madden, Bodyguard is a must-watch.

The Diplomat

Another political thriller not to miss is The Diplomat, which has an impressive 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Following an attack on a British aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf, newly appointed United States ambassador to the UK Kate Wyler (Keri Russell) must do everything possible to prevent war from erupting.

Hailed as "one of the most intelligent series put out by Netflix" by a viewer, The Diplomat is a captivating drama offering three series worth binge-watching.

Suits

For Lincoln Lawyer enthusiasts, the legendary Suits absolutely deserves a spot on your viewing schedule.

Spanning nine seasons, gifted university dropout Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) ends up employed as a legal associate at a prestigious law firm despite never attending law school.

These days, Suits is perhaps most famous as the show that kickstarted Meghan Markle's acting journey when she played one of its leading characters, Rachel Zane.

In contrast to The Lincoln Lawyer, Suits' storylines unfold over extended periods with each season featuring approximately 16 episodes, making it more of an investment but essential viewing for drama enthusiasts.

Pedro Paramo

Should The Lincoln Lawyer's star Manuel Garcia-Rulfo be what draws you to the legal series, then this film showcasing the actor is perfect.

Adapted from the legendary Mexican novel by Juan Rulfo, Pedro Paramo chronicles Juan Preciado's journey to the haunted town of Comala searching for his father Pedro Paramo (Garcia-Rulfo).

However, he quickly learns that the settlement is actually inhabited by spirits from its history, creating confusion between the living and the dead in this otherworldly 2024 film.

Unbelievable

One standout series from 2019 is a true crime drama featuring Toni Collette and Merritt Wever as Detectives Grace Rasmussen and Karen Duvall, respectively.

In 2008, Marie Adler, portrayed by Kaitlyn Dever in the series, was sexually assaulted in her flat by a masked man bearing a birthmark on his left calf.

However, after being coerced into repeatedly recounting the traumatic event, two male detectives begin to doubt her story and pressure her into retracting her statement.

Fast forward three years, and Rasmussen and Duvall are collaborating to bring this masked perpetrator to justice.

Unbelievable may be a hard watch but it’s a worthwhile one with the 2015 article An Unbelievable Story of Rape winning a Pulitzer Prize.

The Lincoln Lawyer is available to watch on Netflix.
