Any other series out there that's as well done as Sense8?

Asked by Jeruba (55829points) September 10th, 2017

The two-season Netflix drama Sense8 is beautifully directed, filmed, and edited, for the most part well acted, and (if you grant the premise for the sake of the storyline) very engaging.

My husband and I have been watching it one or two episodes at a time. Some of them, I admit, are a bit excessive for me, and some I just don’t follow as the plot meanders, but we’ve been enjoying it.

Now we’re about to run out.

I know there’s a two-hour series wrap-up coming next year, to alleviate the frustration of having a series end on a cliffhanger, but meanwhile—what?

Any suggestions for another serial program that my husband and I can both enjoy? In general his taste runs to action and romance and mine to classics, foreign films, and British costume/historical drama. Common ground is a bit scarce, but we want a Saturday-night movie every week. And when our standalone movie choice doesn’t work out, like last night, or we just want a little escape, that’s when we turn to an ongoing series.

Thank you.
