2 weeks ago - This semi-comedic and definitely cozy amateur sleuth series is perfect multigenerational viewing. Avid gardeners Laura Thyme (Pam Ferris) and Rosemary Boxer (Felicity Kendal), each having suffered a personal crisis, come together to form a landscaping business only to be continually drawn into solving crime. ... Scotland is having something of a crime-drama moment — see also “Shetland” and “Annika,” which I would have included here if it wasn’t canceled after its Season 2 cliffhanger, which is unsupportable — as this year’s “Dept.

It's a swashbuckling, classic tale—heartbroken boy meets girl, scythe meets grass, pride meets prejudice, viewer meets abs—in a beautiful wrapper, the dramatic Cornish cliffs and dazzling sea. A reboot of the 1970s series that saw its leading man mobbed, Beatles-style, by adoring fans, Poldark stars Aidan Turner as the smoldering, flawed hero, Captain Ross Poldark, who returns from war to find his life upended and his beloved about to marry his cousin.Watch it for its romantic, rough-and-ready hero with nothing—and everything—to lose; the adventure; the scenery; the pompous, wig-bearin

March 1, 2025 -

Hey folks,

I'm looking for some TV series made between 1970 and 1995. I don't mind the genre—it can be action, adventure, comedy, or anything really—just no romance, please.

For reference, I really enjoyed Blackadder. So, if you’ve got any recommendations for great British shows from that era, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks in advance!

I’ve recently been on a crime drama binge and I’m looking for more recommendations.

I just watched Dept Q and Fool Me Once and really enjoyed both of them. I also finished Bodyguard, which was great. My favorite crime drama overall has to be Line of Duty (not on Netflix, unfortunately), such a good show.

What other British crime dramas would you recommend that are available on Netflix?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
