Pros

  • Watch British detective/crime series- start with Line of Duty, Broadchurch, Happy Valley. These will draw you in.
  • Happy Valley yes it’s yet another series but it must be on this list. Darker and more intense, but incredibly well written and character focused. British. Sarah Lancashire gives one of the best lead performances in any crime series.
  • Happy Valley is amazing. British shows do dark crime stories the best. Especially small towns
  • Happy Valley is one of the highest rated tv shows in the UK, i would highly recommend it.
  • Happy Valley (this is the best of the bunch)

Cons

  • We tried Happy Valley and HATED it
  • I thought happy valley s1 was great, but 2 & 3 I found to be pretty average.

get recommended other police procedurals like Mare of Easttown or Happy Valley (both excellent).
