- CreatorAlex GansaHoward GordonStarsClaire DanesMandy PatinkinDamian LewisA bipolar CIA operative becomes convinced a prisoner of war has been turned by al-Qaeda and is planning to carry out a terrorist attack on American soil.Very compelling and often a bit too dead on the nose with current state of the world. Intense and brilliantly acted

- CreatorMatt DufferRoss DufferStarsMillie Bobby BrownFinn WolfhardWinona RyderWhen a young boy vanishes, a small town uncovers a mystery involving secret experiments, terrifying supernatural forces and one strange little girl.Classic popular drama series now, but very well done and if you haven't seen it there isn't really an excuse (unless you are easily scared) because it is sometimes quite scary.
- CreatorPeter MorganStarsClaire FoyOlivia ColmanImelda StauntonFollows the political rivalries and romances of Queen Elizabeth II's reign and the events that shaped Britain for the second half of the 20th century.Who knew the royal family history was so compelling.

- CreatorBryan FullerAlex KurtzmanStarsSonequa Martin-GreenAnthony RappDoug JonesTen years before Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise, the USS Discovery discovers new worlds and lifeforms as one Starfleet officer learns to understand all things alien.This series re-invented a star trek as a series, and brings us back to more of a classic star trek pulling away from the splinter storylines of the recent movie regeneration franchise. The story does go off piste, but it is compelling and worth checking out
