Looking for a really long mind-engaging quality drama series

[Yetmorebeanstocount]

I enjoyed:
The Expanse
The Man in the High Castle

Only Amazon or i-Player, NOT Netflix or Sky or any other service.

Any suggestions?

House
The Blacklist

oh yes House was great - I watched most of it but not every episode.
I will look into The Blacklist.

Spiral

Seconded. Absolutely brilliant.

Dopesick, on Disney and now on the BBC. (What constitutes long?) I'm still bereft after finishing Better Call Saul (Netflix).

Blacklist is brilliant.

Did you watch The Wire when it came out?

Medici.
Game of thrones- bit gory

Unfortunately Dopesick only has 8 episodes. I was hoping for 24 or more.

I don't fancy police or crime stuff.
I like sci-fi, or otherwise any normal/realistic setting with strong portrayal of relationships. I like historical or modern settings.

Dark, as per my username, German SciFi series. Cerebral.

Second The Wire.

I loved Spiral!

Dark looks great but is is on Netflix.

I liked The West Wing (showing my age).

I haven't seen the Wire - that is a definite possibility.

I love the West Wing as well

Sorry to have been the idiot who didnt read the OP. It's very annoying when people do that!

There's quite a few recommendations I'd make but all Netflix sadly.

Manifest? Its a bit ridiculous in places but I watched all 4 seasons in a couple of weeks, it reeled me in

I liked Baptiste, Line of Duty, Luther.

Medici on Amazon brings up a 12 part documentary? Is that what you meant?

I have just found The Borgias, which looks fun.

Going on your comment about relationships - this is us. I am on series 5 and it is really good

Manifest is now on my list. Thanks

I second This Is Us on Amazon Prime.

In wrings you out emotionally though

Outer Range was good, just series one at the moment but there is a trailer for series two so it should be soon, it's a western sci-fi. type series

I hate police procedurals but there has never been a better series than The Wire. I also don’t like sci-fi but Raised by Wolves is worth a watch.

This is Us looks great - a change from sci-fi or thriller/action stuff

I tried Outer Range but found it just too slow-paced and ponderous after a while - there were too many questions and no answers. I also didn't like the character of the patriarch - too moody.

Better Caul Saul.

Fargo - 5 series on Prime
