To ask for your best crime dramas

In bed with a bad back. Bored and in pain so watching TV for distractions.

I love watching crime dramas. I don't mind stand alone episode stories but prefer watching stories that run over a few episodes. I really don't like anything super natural. Just a story with a mystery.

I feel like I have watched most of them but there must be some I have missed?

Am I unreasonable to ask for suggestions?

I have even watched a lot of European ones.

I mean dramas such as

The killing, The tunnel, Unforgotten, Baptiste and the missing, Cardinal,Guilt, Paranoid, Safe house, Absentia, Happy valley ,Luther, The sinner.

There must be some I have missed?

Thanks all.

I have seen line of duty and Hinterland Grin. Liked top of the lake too.

Not heard of Spiral 6. Will have a look at that. Thanks.

Prime suspect. Columbo or montalbano for laughs.

Line of Duty is fantastic

ShinyMe · 12/06/2019 20:41

Have you seen Shetland? I LOVE Shetland. It's quite dark, and has ongoing stories over 4-6 episodes. Each series is 1 crime, but there is also an ongoing story about the detectives, who are really interesting characters.

What Remains is on iPlayer at the moment, I really enjoyed that. Also, if you have uktv on demand then the first 16 episodes of Trial and Retribution is available. There's a good film on Netflix called Osmosis (Spanish) which was good and yes, Hinterland is worth a watch Wink

Crimson rivers. It was on channel 4 recently. Really good French detective series. La mante on Netflix which is also French but brilliant. True detective, the bay, Harrow, Vera,

Love/Hate
It got rave reviews.
I didn't watch it as there is enough real life crime/ drug wars in Dublin without watching it on telly too.
