If your paranoia has lost its edge, “Rabbit Hole” might be just the multi-episodic whetstone you need. The atmosphere of the eight-part season 1, created by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa , is a mix of good-natured dread with a dash of cynicism, and though I wouldn’t say this in most instances, Mr. Sutherland is perfectly cast.
