Think with all the streaming services I have got choice fatigue. Can you recommend a good box set to binge watch. I have nowtv, Netflix, Disney and prime. Dont have a tv licence so anything on bbc is out.

recently finished stranger things, diplomat, shameless. Looking for something easy to watch, not too serious. I like stuff like Greys anatomy, house, criminal minds, Gilmore girls etc.

Plus any random documentaries.

I second High Potential on Disney+. The Mandolorian also on Disney +, any of the Star Wars spin offs are good, particularly liked Obi Wan. Lucifer on Netflix,
The Big Bang Theory i think is on Netflix and the spin off Young Sheldon. I have just finished Once Upon a Time on Disney+, I watched the first two series years ago when it was on channel 5 but I never saw the later series advertised so had long break so started again from beginning had some long breaks and had to go back a few times cos I wasn't paying attention, but i finished and enjoyed it in the end. I like to watch old things 4 and 5con demand have some good documentaries and they often put series from a few years back on, I just restarted watching the White Queen.

My husband reccomends Turn on Netflix, the Americans and Bones on Disney+. Bones is mentioned a lot on Lucifer which is why we started watching it. He also liked Will Trent but I didn't having read the books.
