For a couple of years it was the best Star Trek on TV, while not actually being Star Trek. As far as I know it's not officially dead yet, but Covid played hell with it. There's been talk of doing another season with a reduced budget.
Streaming Mr Selfridge on PBS. It's quite good.

Billions is phenominal.
Broadchurch is probably one of my favourite shows ever.
Ok, Painkiller is a must watch. Great casting and a fascinating and horrifying story. Yes it’s dramatized but if only a fraction is real that is scary enough.
Very very topical too. The sleazy company keeps making news US Supreme Court halts Purdue Pharma bankruptcy settlement pending review

Mass producing addictive products with health risks, well after those risks are known, seems to be standard American business practice.
If the marketing strategy shown in the series is true that’s the really disgusting part.
I'm guessing that they delve into the whole thing about free samples to doctors and the insentivisation for writing prescriptions for patients who could have done with lower power pain meds. I'll likely watch it over the weekend.
Watch "Dopesick" if you haven't already. It's more of a documentary on the same topic.
In the same type story this old documentary, The Corporation was an eye opener for me

Watching Mystery Road as per @anterabae recommendation.
It's well shot, I like the look of it, good cast, and seems high budget, but there are some weird story inconsistencies.
example, they arrive on horses to a location, but leave in a SUV ??
