I've been enjoying some TV of late, having been sick over the last couple of weeks.

Peacemaker S2 (Prime) - really enjoying that it's just taken up where it left off and has also taken a slight leaf out of The Boys' book and added a little more...oomph.

Invasion S2 (Apple TV+) - not enjoying this anywhere near as much as I enjoyed the first season and finding this altogether too slow and fractured. Needed to be dropped as a complete season, not a week-by-week episodic release.

Reacher S2 (Prime) - thoroughly enjoyable and I look forward to starting the new season.

Foundation S3 (Apple TV+) - still really enjoying this, but would have preferred to watch it in one go, rather than weekly episode drops.

Acapulco S4 (Apple TV+) - it's largely lost it's way, but I am invested and this is the final season, so I'll stick with it.

I have become a big fan of New Tricks and Silent Witness, both old BBC series available for streaming. Unfortunately I have now worked my way through all the episodes and am desperately looking for something like them to fill the hole. Suggestions requested and welcome. I already watch Vera and Brokenwood so something other than those.

Have watched the first couple of episodes of Your Friends and Neighbors on Apple TV+

A fascinating and dark drama set in the ultra-rich neighbourhoods of New York, where the wealthy indulge themselves and one small change in circumstances can lead to a series of very interesting events.
The main character, Coop, is a Hedge Fund Manager who loses his job and struggles to keep up with the Friends and Neighbours...so he finds a new way to fund the lifestyle

Starring John Hamm, Amanda Peat and a bunch of very capable supporting cast, this has taken us a bit by surprise as we didn't really know what to expect from it...but we're enjoying it a great deal.

Wire in the blood. i watched it again last month even though it is 20 years or so old it still holds up

Common sense is not as common as you think.

Tried watching the Brit reality and so-called travel show Destination X on TVNZ+ (also on iPlayer). Watched the first episode and, against my better judgement, the second - then gave up.

Pathetic and unwatchable IMO - not least because I can’t stand the host, Rob Brydon. He makes a poor show worse.

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Do you have Acorn TV for streaming? It’s cheap and has a huge number of older Brit shows available.

Interesting but no scifi category on the website?

Probably not aimed at that demographic.

Can think of a few in general, just not sure about if/where they stream - Endeavour, Unforgotten, any Marple series, Law & Order, Grantchester, Prime Suspect, The Americans< George Gently, Foyle's War, Professor T, Patience, Ridley, Shetland, Wallander...

I can access most stuff (like Brit TV) so that is not an issue, I was just looking for suggestions of things that might appeal to me. I have to say I am not particularly taken with Amercan fare. Not a criticism, it just doesn't appeal much (with the occasional noteworthy exception).

Fair enough (though the 2 American items in that list count as exceptions IMHO).
