My time to shine has come!

"The killing" with Joel Kinnaman and Meirelle Enos. Two detectives try to solve a murder case.

"The fall" with Jamie Dornan and Gillian Anderson. A father with a dark and unsettling history.

"Mare of Easttown" with Kate Winslet and Evan Peters. Local detective invetigates a complicated case.

"Inside man" with Stanley Tucci. A detective gets help from an unexpected person.

Sorry for the crappy overviews.

Those are some of my favorites and I have watched them more than once.

you've always shined my friend!

Dude, this looks like exactly what I was looking for as I've never watched any of these and that is rare. Thank you even included a high level plot overview as well, lemmy can't be matched!

You are in for a treat!

I am glad I could share something interesting with you.

As a fan of all those shows (except the last which I haven’t seen yet, thanks for the tip!) this guy nails it. Those are all great picks! I will add I really liked season 1 of ‘The Sinner’ was excellent. I can’t say I loved the rest of the series as much as season 1.

Others have recommended several of my suggestions but here are ones that haven't been mentioned (in order of my own preference):

CRIME:

Bosch

Line of Duty

Bloodline

Longmire

The Killing

DRAMA:

Rectify

Dude Rectify started slow but seems like mid season 2 might start to be picking up 👌🏻 thanks again that was one I'd never heard of.

It's definitely a slow character-driven drama. I didn't know that I would've gotten as far as mid season 2 if I hadn't gotten hooked from the start myself. Hope you enjoy the rest of it.
