No Breaking Bad on your previous watch list, pretty sure it is still on Netflix

I'm with you 100% on Manifest.  

Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul are both excellent and will suck up a lot of time.

Also:

The Americans

House of Cards

Also, Lupin.  It is a French show, but is very good even with the subtitles.

FWIW, we’re watching Columbo. I watch maybe one episode of TV per week. So far, enjoying it.

Letterkenny on Hulu.

The benefit for Curtis is he may have met some of the characters.

Goliath on Prime. First season was excellent, if you like Billy Bob...

I think these ones are only through Brit Box on Prime, but we've watched/binged the following:

Shetland

Happy Valley

Blue Lights

Unforgotten

Granite Harbour (the second season I didn't think was as good as the first)

On Netflix:

The Gentlemen (and would reccommend the film too)

Afterlife

On Disney or Fox:

Justified

Most of what I'd be about to suggest have already been suggested, the only glaring omission would be the Lost In Space remake on Netflix.

I was just going to recommend Goliath.  Each season gets progressively weirder.

You know.. I tried Lost in Space and it really didn't hold my attention.  I'll give it another shot.

Give "Brassic" a shot.  The first few seasons should be on prime, hulu and roku.

I started Lupin.  No idea why I didn't continue.  It might have been because Hot For Teacher got me hooked on Fleabag

I did watch that.  Very fun... and yeah... why so serious in the last season?

I think I'll start The Americans.  I see that one popping up a lot here.

I'm also thinking about re-watching Man in the High Castle

I like that it's become a series that could go toe-to-toe with the best of Star Trek. Actually I enjoyed it more than a lot of the recent Star Trek series.

You know, I was gonna write out something but this is basically what I was going to say.

 

It's definitely better than Discovery, which I still haven't finished and probably never will

How much Star Trek have you watched? I'm a huge Trek fan, and it's basically like visual comfort food for me. I've seen every episode and every movie, most multiple times. TNG and DS9 are my favorites, but I like them all. Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds have been GREAT when it comes to the newer stuff, as was the last season of Picard. Discovery has some good ideas here and there, but skip Season 4; it is just awful. Plot is dumb and they spend way too much time spinning their tires on stuff that doesn't move the story along. 

I second Babylon 5 if you haven't seen it. It's oh-so 90's, but really great with storytelling that's ahead of its time. Very serialized, a lot like DS9, and even shares some of the same ideas/character names (and even actors!) which makes it familiar in a way. There are 5 seasons, and the first 4 are some of the best Sci-Fi ever. The 5th was kind of an afterthought, but still decent. The CGI gets better as the series goes on. Highly recommended. 

Resident Alien is another show we recently watched. It's got Alan Tudyk in it, and he's absolutely ridiculous and brilliant. Great show that will have you cracking up the entire time. 

Currently watching Cheers for the first time all the way through. Some stuff hasn't aged as well as it could, but it's a fun show. It's one of the best sitcoms of all time. And remember, Cheers is just a holodeck program.

In reply to Tony Sestito :

DS9 is criminally underrated, and I actually like Enterprise a lot.  Strange New Worlds is great too. Picard was decent. Voyager at times was good but there's quite a few clunkers of episodes too. TNG was what I watched when I got home from school so it's always got a special place. 

I havent been able to get into Lower Decks and Discovery has just been a slog, I don't even know where I stopped, but I just don't like the characters at all.

We're impatiently waiting for the third season of Resident Alien to appear on Netflix.

Another plus one for The Gentlemen on Netflix. One that doesn't fit, but is a real brain enema for me on Netflix is Great British Baking Show - not only is it good porn, it's also hilarious, and you kinda get into it...the suspense and the thrill and the agony of the competition. It's fun TV that you can turn your brain off for.

Prime has Reacher and Terminal List that are both bangers. I'm most of the way thru From on Prime as well. Had a very "Lost" vibe (both in writing and one of the cast), so I'm dubious as to whether the ending can live up to the body of the series, but I'm ready to have my heart broken again. Also, thru prime you can get freevee, which has Schitts Creek, which may be the funniest show I've ever streamed.

You can "buy" the third season Via YouTube. I certainly wasn't gonna wait around for it to pop up for free.

It is totally worth it!!!

I need to rewatch "Episodes" with Steven Mangan, Tamsin Greig and Matt LeBlanc. Great show with one of the best wrapups at the end.
