Forgive me if already me mentioned, but I've been enjoying Invincible (adult cartoon based on comic) on Amazon. Very violent but also knows how to poke fun at itself - and the voice cast is simply amazing! The budget must be ridiculous.

Sally4ever is disturbingly entertaining and while not family friendly it’s recommended.
I believe it has been mentioned somewhere in the thread but I can recommend ‘Your Honour’.
I didn’t have any particular expectations and only started watching it because my wife put it on,however it is excellent and well worth watching.
Watched the Sabine Schmitz Top Gear Tribute earlier. Very moving.
Never heard of Invincible and have just added to my watchlist and will start tonight cheers!
I'm really enjoying a few shows:
Line of Duty
Debris
New Amsterdam
Ripping through ZeroZeroZero. A bit like the excellent Gommorah series.
Has plenty of English speaking in this one though.
Features the Cartel, the Italian Mafia and an American family who ship their drugs on tankers.
Really good.
On a completely different tack, I've just stumbled across Rob Riggle: Global Investigator on Amazon Prime.
This is pretty much of it's own unique genre - real historic mysteries, being investigated, but genuinely funny!

Just goodhearted, feelgood TV. I'm two espisodes in - Holy Grail and now Pirate Treasure, and really enjoying it.
The opening titles will give you a flavour:

So clever my foot fell off.
Line of Duty is the best show by quite a mile for me. Zerozerozero was good but maybe an ep or two two long, it could have been tighter, and Your Honor started well but I lost interest after a couple of eps. Flight Attendant I gave a chance but was just too silly rather than quirky and funny.
Any Gomorrah fans I’ve just done season 1 Of Subura on Netflix which was great, 2 more seasons to go . Italian with subtitles so need to concentrate

Still in pre-production, but one that I think will be worth watching when it comes out - The Contintental, a spin-off from the John Wick films.
Snowfall is really good - I'm 2 seasons in so far.
Story of the early days of crack cocaine dealers & US government influence - set in LA in the early '80's.
Very good story, acting & soundtrack.

Watching it on Sky, but is BBC material (not typical BBC show) so may also be on iplayer?
Watching as a family:
New Girl, quite a few laugh out loud moments
Modern family
This is my house, which was strangely entertaining.
With the Mrs:
Outlander, and just started John Adams.
The new season just started on BBC 1 last Sunday.
The new season of Fargo also started on Sunday - Channel 4. I doubt it will be as good as the first, but episode 1 was pretty good.
Blinded - Those Who Kill started on BBC4 last Saturday for those that like a Scandi crime drama. Episode 1 was excellent.

Wanted - Damasko DC57
Ozarks' very good indeed.
Falcon and the Winter Soldier is very watchable, the 2 leads do a good job with the buddy gig. NO spoilers, BUT the Wakandan Royal guard are badasses.
Mare of Easttown on Sky Atlantic is also very good. Kate Winslet is really good in it.

Wanted - Damasko DC57
Mare of Easttown is phenomenal, love it. Also watching Bone and Shadows, its a bit Harry Potter but light entertainment.
Don’t watch many series on amazon as it’s very American and can be a bit dumbed down compared to the european stuff (appreciate you sometimes need a ‘no brainer’ to watch) but really enjoyed The Boys, a different take on superheroes and not your usual hero-antihero trope. If you enjoyed The Watchman film I think you will like this. Lots of head exploding gore and the C word so maybe not suitable for all.
Tales from the loop was good too.
Just in case you missed this (as I did), it's Man Vs Bear - for real:

One of the funniest reviews I've read in ages.
Has to be worth a watch!
So clever my foot fell off.
Season 2 of Love Death & Robots is now on Netflix. Not as many this time and a bit of a mixed bag, but well worth a watch. The quality of some of the animation is breathtaking. I know it's all CGI nowadays and motion capture, making it almost live action, but still impressive none the less
Just got round to watching Unabomber on Netflix with Paul Bettany.
Really good, binged watched in a couple of nights, only 1 episode was a semi-dud where they did a backstory episode and skipped the FBI investigation entirely.
Will go back through the thread to see what to watch next.
Not sure it's been mentioned but Mare of East Town on Sky.
And another vote for Mare of Eastown
Also just finished Mare of East town, really enjoyed it. Winslet is superb - don’t tend to watch much of her stuff so was sceptical, but she made the show
Just begun 'Start Up' on Netflix. 4 episodes in ...Wow really enjoying it! Martin Freeman in a totally different role.

Bosch will return later this month on Amazon Prime. Season 7 (final one).
The music for this show is excellent. I must say that it's often the case with Amazon series.
started watching 'snowfall' on someones recommendation here , half way through season 1 and its very good so far .
In the need for some lighthearted TV I decided to watch The Kominsky Method, produced by the same folks who did the Big Bang. It’s stars Alan Aitkin and Micheal Douglas (as an acting coach).
In one scene the Micheal Douglas character receives a prostrate exam from a doctor played by Danny Deveto and I was in tears. Very funny.
Available on Netflix
