On Amazon Prime I would highly recommend Endeavor.

A mystery show that is set in the 60's in the UK. Follows an inspector stationed in Oxford. I found it to be really good.

Assuming the OP has seen all the usual stuff on Netflix, my strongest recommendation goes to Dead to Me. Great story, fantastic cast, season 3 on the way.

Severance is the best new series out, though. Apple TV+ consistently puts out the best content these days. If you don't have a subscription, you're really missing out.

Hulu
Like someone else said lots of older shows: maybe Freaks and Geeks, Alias from the 90's
We are close to finishing Nashville wishing it was as good as when it started
We keep Last Man Standing on deck to cheer us up before bedtime
Timeless - entertaining time travel show
Black Sails - Great Pirate action show (borrowed from STARZ)
The Last Ship - Post apocalyptic show
Firefly - a too short Awesome SciFi show
Homeland - Spy show (Borrowed from Showtime)
Vikings - Good History Channel Viking stories
Archer - Animated adult spy comedy
Stargate Atlantis - - classic early 2000s SciFi (See SG-1 until they mention Atlantis)
12 Monkeys - intense dark SciFi
Bloom - interesting Austrailian SciFi

HBO
Raised by Wolves - intense SciFi
Tourist - Gritty Austrailian thriller
The Nevers - Victorian fantasy
West World - if you missed it
Band of Brothers - one of the greatest war dramas made
True Blood - campy vampire show
Rome - good historical drama starting in Julius Caesars time
John Adams - if you like Historical Biography
Sopranos - we keep trying to watch it
Game of Thrones - if you somehow missed it
Pennyworth - interesting building of Alfred's backstory from Batman
Fringe - very good SciFi series

Highly recommend Boardwalk Empire. Should be available on HBO and/or Hulu.

The IT Crowd is NOTHING like bbt

Shame on you suggesting that

Sorry, The Big Bang Theory just was not that funny to me. The IT Crowd is. To each his own.

I agree the bbt is not funny. I just can't understand how you can say they are in the same vein.

It is like saying Dragnet and Cop Rock or Reno 911 are in the same vein because they are both cop shows.

Watch it. The documentary is hilarious.

Maybe it is my fear of saying the word ... nerdy.

God's Favorite Idiot was mindless entertainment

The Leftovers

Dark

….both (to me at least) are Tier 1 shows that many haven't seen or maybe even heard of

I really enjoyed Mr Inbetween - Australian comedy/drama. 3 seasons. Not sure how you stream it - it was on FX.

It's a better version of Barry.

Mr Inbetween was greatness. Shame he isn't doing anymore seasons. Season 1 was especially awesome.

For comedy, Taskmaster (UK) which is pretty much all on YouTube for free.

Don't think anyone mentioned these yet:

Banshee - If you like crazy fight scenes and action, this one's for you.

The Boys - A different take on super heros. They're mostly the bad guys.

I just started Taskmaster a couple weeks ago and love it.

I kept my AMC+ subscription going during the breaking between "Bettter Call Saul" season halves. I have found "Iprcess File" and "Dark Winds", both of which I like. There is another thread on "Dark Winds".

"Iprcress File" is a slightly different plotline form the Michael Caine movie, but it is true to the characters. They did a good job of recreating 1960s London.

If you like British series, there are a lot on AMC+. Their Roku app is terrible though, keeps logging me out.

Heard The Old Man on FX is good

If you have prime watch The Boys

But be forewarned there are a lot of very, very adult scenes. And some that are a little disgusting. But the show is good.

I watched the first 3 episodes - thought it was excellent. I am a Jeff Bridges fan...and hope his health is getting better.
