These are my comfort shows and I rewatch them CONSTANTLY. Yes I do have adhd.

I find I can’t get through the first episode of new series, I keep trying but come back to these all the time. I need something gripping, but doesn’t take a season to get into it.

Any suggestions would be so welcome!

Sorry for the delay! In a short answer no. Well it appears that it's impossible unless you...go to other means...🤫 otherwise you have to have a multi-regional DVD player and buy an imported DVD from Amazon UK that costs around £40😬 Frankly I don't know why no one will show the last series on UK TV! It follows Diane's story arc to a good conclusion and is fun. Channel 4 or somebody HAS to show it. They showed reruns of Law & Order fifty million times and apparently had the rights so I don't know why.

I can’t find any of it streamed anywhere 🤷‍♀️

DysonSphere · 24/07/2024 18:09

Anywhere...as in ANYWHERE?

YYURYYUCICYYUR4ME · 24/07/2024 18:17

Another recommendation for New Amsterdam.

The Good Fight is a follow on from the Good Wife. I didn’t like it as much, but it was popular in America.

Yes!

Final series of good fight never been shown in the uk.

Private practice is worth a watch -I rewatched all 6 seasons during lockdown.

The rookie is pretty good.

Sorry if it has been said before but the final series of the Good Fight is available on the RTE player which can be watched in the UK in case you haven't seen it.

MessyNeate · 24/07/2024 18:31

Station 19
The fosters (on Disney)
Private practice

Clueless2024 · 24/07/2024 18:35

Secret diary of a call girl - old but great
The good doctor
New Amsterdam
The night agent - great spy thriller
Sweet Magnolias - sappy, but lovely
Ginny & Georgia

Sorry it is coming up under stream every episode on mine. Maybe they impose restriction out of Ireland.

purplecorkheart · 24/07/2024 19:00

Maybe try using a browser rather than an app

PifandHercule · 24/07/2024 19:03

The Good Fight

HillBillieEilish · 24/07/2024 19:03

Trying not the duplicate any previous recommendations

Insomnia - prime (might be paramount)
Yellowstone - paramount
Bad sisters - Apple TV
The morning show - Apple TV (gets shit at the end)
Hello tomorrow - Apple TV (not finished it but started well)
The boys - prime there's also a young kids version which is good
Ted Lasso - Apple TV
Star Trek voyager/next generation/discovery - Netflix and paramount
Umbrella academy - Netflix (Addison is in it)
Haunting of hill house - Netflix
Queens gambit - Netflix

I love, love, love greys and loved these (except the boys which DP loves)

EsmeSusanOgg · 24/07/2024 19:07

The Good Fight. Also, a brand new spin-off called Elspeth has just starting airing.

Fire Country is good. We like the new Equaliser series too.

EsmeSusanOgg · 24/07/2024 19:08

Slow Horses on AppleTV is excellent.

Older, but brilliant, Amazon Prime has all of Person of Interest.

Mumoftwochildrenand6furkids · 24/07/2024 19:18

If you have Now and Disney me and my partner are really into the chicago programs there is Chicago med, fire house and Pd we also love Station 19.

annaspanner18 · 24/07/2024 21:01

Thanks @DysonSphere, thought I was going mad looking for it! Have to get my kids to get it on a dodgy stream 🤷‍♀️

That's what I had to do.
