From on MGM+ is absolutely fantastic. I love the mystery, the horror, and everything else about it. I am excited to see where it goes. I also absolutely love Foundation on Apple TV+, amazing CGI and fantastic world (or universe) building.
Hands down it has to be Fringe, amazing cast, great premise and manages to transition from monster of the week - a la X Files - to a fully immersive story that is action packed and tugs at your heartstrings. I’m not sure what platform it’s available on these days, but I’m sure you can sail the high seas if need be.
Oh, and it’s 5 seasons that actually has an ending, unlike many shows on streaming these days!

The Middleman! It was 1 hour comedy that played on ABC Family that sadly got canceled after its first season. It was a farcical take on the super spy genre based off the comic books of the same name with Matt Kessler and Natalie freaking Morales. Vampire Ventriloquist Dummies, Zombie Flying Fish, and all Alien Boy Bands. It’s a hilarious send up spy and comic book tropes.
First thing that popped into my mind: Galavant. It’s a prime time network fantasy comedy from a writer of Cars and Tangled, teamed up with the composer from Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid.
It’s like if The Princess Bride was two seasons of musical television with songs from the golden 90’s era of Disney. In a just world, it’d have six seasons and a movie.

Dammit, now you’ve mentioned it, I’m going to have to watch every episode again for the 11th time.
Fabulous show. Always frustrated me how much bigger The IT Crowd was than BB.
Frustrated? You need the little book of calm
I think I’ll just drink heavily and shout at things!
I was going to say FROM when I saw your question. I’m glad you mentioned it.
