TV while quarantined

So my wife and I have been watching Scott and Bailey - sort of a British variant of Law and Order SVU - while quarantined.

There must be dozens of other good options out there. Any recommendations?

If you have Netflix - recommend Altered Carbon and Sense8 - science fiction-y with a touch of metaphysical and generous amounts of skin

also "Lucifer" and of course "Star Trek" - all except maybe the one with Scott Bakula

instead of a like i will make a reply, I was going to like the comment since I concur with the review, those were interesting series, and would second the recommend.
i thought a reply would be more fitting [given the game of likes thread] more personable than an emoticon

Everyone's talking about Tiger King on Netflix. I thought it was entertaining...

Might not be on your radar... but... did you watch Doom Patrol? I didn't expect liking it... but it was well done. And difficult to pull-off.

Yeah - I am an avid (DC) comic book fan so try and watch any comic book related series I can get my hands on including the ones with Marvel heroes

Agree I watched it on SyFy but I believe it is now on Amazon Prime - so another subscription if someone is interested

If anyone cares to Google it - there are actually websites compiling "best shows on ..." lists - there was even one for engineers :) (not surprisingly I, Robot was listed on there) - that you can peruse to get a head start on what might be out there
 
The Last Kingdom

I really enjoyed the first season of CBS All Access Picard.

As did I. But now we wait.

Given our still full lives, our TV habits have not changed. We both can watch archeology and even shows like Unearthed. Also Chopped. As long as we can find an hour of TV that is bearable to both of us, we're fine.
