Deutschland 83, Spin, both on More4 and available on catch up.
The first is a spy thriller set in '80s East / West Germany, the second is a French political drama set in modern day.
Both are gripping, and capture the mood of the time in which they are set.
They are subtitled though.
Edit: completely missed the UK / US bit.
I'm watching archer on Netflix at the minute. Makes me laugh a LOT.
Press on past the pilot episode because it gets really good after that.
Also watching making a murderer and blindspot
Not sure how many watch this ... but Ruth jones returns tonight @ 9pm SKY1 series 5 of Stella comedy and drama in equal measures well worth a look ,

Just finished Aquarius season 1 on sky catch up - sky Atlantic I think. Loosely based on Charles Manson, very good. Season 2 has been commissioned but no release date yet.
Recommend 1st series of True Detective, again on sky. 2nd series not so good but fortunately it's a completely different story with a different cast, series 1 was top draw

The good doctor is well worth a watch
Just watched After Life on Netflix. Simply brilliant
I've been enjoying Follow the Money on BBC 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b072h7rk Now on iPlayer. Lots of plotlines, intrigue etc. A Danish programme with subtitles (don't let those put you off).
JUST noticed episodes 1 and 2 expire today (in 7 hours' time, so you may want to grab those tonight. Episodes were broadcast in pairs. There's a week left to catch up with parts 3 and 4. This series is not downloadable as far as I know)
I'll look up Spin, thanks, as I enjoyed Deutschland '83 (esp as I visited the old Berlin secret police offices a couple of years ago so it was great to see them used in the series - more luxurious, for their time, than you might imagine (provided you weren't in a cell!)
