From Friends to Breaking Bad, there are TV shows that have become so iconic that they're immediately recognised all over the world. But as well as being famous for their human stars, a lot of series are also remembered for objects that became almost as emblematic. But when it comes to the test, just how well do you know your Walking Dead's from your Riverdale's?
The artists Eurydyka Kata and Rafal Szczawinski have devised a vibrant collection of minimalist TV posters with coded references to famous shows. Each design features three iconic objects or characters from a major series, and we've spent all morning trying to work out which show is which.

All of these minimalist yet brilliant designs are available to purchase over on BZA.co, so you can hang your favourite on your wall. Kata and Szczawinski have also designed several other posters for TV series and iconic painters that follow this same three-element format, as well as alternative animated movie posters.
The posters are wonderfully minimalistic, and if you're a real fan of the shows, then you're likely to appreciate the coded subtlety of each design. I love the designs the artists have already made, and would love to see them do Community, Fleabag or even What We Do in the Shadows.
