Thanks for the tip, I have been looking for something like that to start watching. I've been going through a bunch of British mysteries, detective series and I need a change of pace.

Let me know what you thought!

I'm 2 episodes in and would love to keep going tonight but it's 1am and I have to stop!!!! Will def be watching tomorrow asap. (I'm also watching with English dubbing and it's fine)

There are so many! Vera is a good series, you can find most of it on Prime if you have that. I don't think it's on Netflix. The Morse series is good. Broadchurch, Keeping Faith, Happy Valley, Shetland, Hinterland.

I can't say off the top of my head which series is on which channel but the ones I use are Prime, Netflix, Acorn and Britbox. I'd say most are basic good old reliable detective stories, no big surprises but just fun to watch and follow the characters. A couple like Broadchurch and Happy Valley are very good re the acting and stories are a little deeper. One I want to start is Maigret starring Rowan Atkinson who is most known as Mr Bean, a totally wacky character. I saw one episode of this on local pbs awhile back and it's weird to see him as such a serious person. On Britbox.

I subscribed to Britbox via Prime and it has tons of that kind of series and it's like $5/month, so I feel it's worth the money. I watch next to nothing on US tv, so it's my main source of things to watch. Acorn is about the same. I think both can be subscribed to without Prime as well, I know my Acorn sub is not via Prime.

I can go look up some more shows if you want, just let me know.

Sometimes, the dialog is so quick and mumbled though I can not understand.

Have you seen "Wanted"? It's an Australian TV series about two women running from law. Have to say it's our favorite so far of all we've watched on Netflix.

Will check out some you mentioned thanks!!

Even for the English language shows. For exactly the reason you name. Sometimes the accents are so strong it's difficult to get what they say, plus it might be mumbled or too fast to catch. I found that I can choose the size of the text so it's small enough for me to see it but it doesn't distract from what's going on in the show. I might have to go back and 'rewind' a bit to hear what I missed, but at least with the subtitles I can read it if I still didn't catch the dialogue.

I will definitely look for Wanted. There have been a few good Aussie series. The Miss Fisher Murder Mysteries is set in Australia but I think it's produced by the BBC. They are kind of simplistic and 'hokey' in a way, but fun, light fare. It is set in the 20s and the costumes alone are worth a watch. Phryne Fisher is a fun character as she's supposed to be a wealthy, independent woman who answers to no one. While there are no explicit sex scenes, it's clear that Miss Fisher is as liberated as any man. That series is only on Acorn I think.

Wanted is an Australian drama series that follows two strangers who get caught up in a deadly carjacking and end up on the run, chased across the country by police. The two very different women are forced to rely completely and exclusively on each other to survive
