Good boxsets not on Netflix?

I don't have Net Flix but I do have Prime. I wouldn't rule out NF I just have not looked into it. Also I can go months not watching much.

Anyway can I have recommendations for series to watch? Smile Dislike violence, like sci fi, British drama, period stuff, would give crime a go.

like sci fi,

"The Expanse"

(currently on Amazon, future spaceflight/space wars genre sci-fi)

"Tales from the Loop"

( was on Amazon recently , more Asimov'esque, i.e. querky, unforeseen consequences of technology sort of stuff )

I'm obsessed with Death In Paradise atm, found it by accident and binge watched the first series in a day. That's on Iplayer.

We're watching The Great on C4 which doesn't fall into you typical period drama (which i don't like either).

Also i've really enjoyed Finding Alice, It's A Sin & Us. All on mainstream tv. I've just watched series 1 of Derry Girls. Probably a bit behind the times on that one.

Channel 4’s got a massive back catalogue available to stream. West Wing, Humans, Back, Ackerly Bridge, Misfits, Derry Girls, End Of The Fucking World etc

I assume you’ve watched Good Omens?
The Great is fantastic though has some icky stuff.
IPlayer has all of Battlestar Galactica

Do you have a TV License? The Bridge is on iPlayer (subtitled if you don't mind that, completely gripping and amazing) and all of the Cormoran Strike detective miniseries are on there too.

Staged
Normal People
Ghosts

All on iplayer.

Have you seen Vikings? It’s brIlliant.

The queens gambit

The Lost Room and Fringe for Sci Fi - both on Prime.
Another vote for The Expanse - although I've not enjoyed this season as much.

This Is Us is amazing

Prime not Netflix but I'm really enjoying the Marvellous Mrs Maisel at the moment, I didn't think it would be my thing but it's funny and easy viewing.
