Does anyone have suggestions for new and good shows, or obscure gems I might have missed? (sh.itjust.works)

Any network or streaming service is fine. I’m having trouble finding anything good to watch, much less binge. I’m currently enjoying Sugar on AppleTV, and House of the Dragon on HBO, but they are both weekly releases. I tried The Brothers Sun and Little House on the Prairie on Netflix, and they are a bunch of garbage. (I’m sure I’ll get lots of suggestions I’ve seen, but I don’t see a way around that.)

Thank you!!

I didn’t have high expectations for Blue Lights, but it’s been really good. I don’t normally get affected by character deaths,

Tap for spoiler

but I miss Gerry.

I can't suffer propaganda cop shows: is Blue Lights a "yay cops!" thing or more akin to Happy Valley? If so I might watch it (and love it!).

Haha I get it, I don't like propaganda cop shows either. But after watching Blue Lights I definitely wouldn't want to be a cop in Belfast. It feels pretty real and raw. It kind of has a gloomy setting like Happy Valley, but it isn't as cliffhangy. And it's an ensemble cast. I only get put off by the title screen because that does give off propaganda cop show vibes

Thanks, I'll give it a chance.
