Such a great subject...

First a bit about my tastes for the series you mention to help you judge my taste and recommendations.

Black Mirror - like this. I didn't put love because I find it more scary than any horror. It never left me feeling good. I do watch it.

Battlestar Galactica - love

The 100 - first season awful, after that characters become consistent and quite like it

Colony - love it

Falling Skies - like it, also stopped somewhere in the middle

Continuum - love the premise

Lost in Space - watchable but meh

Stargate, Stargate 100, Stargate Atlantis - love it

SHIELD - I didn't watch all Marvel movies. Only Thor (hello Chris Hemsworth and Idris Elba). And Dr Strange (love Benedict Cumberbatch). Team of mostly humans protecting the world. I thought it wold be like NCIS but it is not bland, quite a lot of unexpected.

UK Netflix is different, Amazon&Netflix have different shows, so I'm just going to give my list (I was thinking about it today, quite possible I forgot some recent stuff, will add it later). Also, some old sci fis. I'm adding a year to give you an idea. I missed some old series, and like digging out some gems (I guess you can tell that since I love SN, like all of you guys).

Babylon 5 1994 My favourite. A complete world from the future. Superb.

Farscape 1999 Extremely good. Some of the actors from here ended up in later seasons of Stargate, that is how I discovered this.

Carnivàle 2003 mysterious, atmospheric. Happens during 1930s and talks about war between good and evil. HBO series.

Lost 2004 another must watch. Or rewatch. Several times.

Fringe 2008 a must watch. Fantastic. Procedural with superb script and acting.

Sleepy Hollow 2013 - hard to describe. I didn't find the premise interesting - Ichabod Crane in current times but this became one of my favourites. Love.

Eureka 2006 Small town, futuristic inventions. Really lovely, pity it is only 2 seasons.

The Gates 2010 - so sorry it was ended quickly. Another gated community, now with supernatural

4400 2006 - 4400 missing people reappear

The Returned/Les Revenants 2012 - French series. People stopped dying. Fantastic series. Didn't watch the English language remake. There are also some new ones inspired by that one on Netflix. Zombies like you haven't seen before.

Jericho 2006 town cut from the world

V 2009 - aliens among us. Awesome.

Primeval 2007 - prehistoric creatures appearing everywhere

Terra Nova 2011 people going back in time, prehistoric period. Again dinosaurs, yey!

Sanctuary 2008 for fans of Startgate, Samantha is back. Saving the world from supernaturals and supernaturals from the world.

Warehouse 13 2009 similar to Sanctuary. Also lovely and relaxing.

Grimm 2011 procedural with cops protecting people from supernaturals. Really good.

Once upon a time 2011 - premise is that characters from fairy tales are real. I didn't find that interesting but ended up loving the series

12 Monkeys 2015 - time travelling, if you watched the movie you know the story. Traveller from the future tries to stop the impending apocalypse

American Gods 2015 - based on book by Neil Geiman. Love Ian McShane. Could watch him in anything. Didn't watch season 2 yet.

Preacher 2016 based on comic book with comic book aesthetic. Action, pulp elements. Lots of black humour. The music. Love it.

Castle Rock 2018 based on Stephen Kings work. I liked it.

Fortitude 2015 sci-fi/horror/mystery just brilliant. Weird things happening in the small city surrounded by snow. Incredible characters.

Midnight, Texas 2017 I quite like this series. It is more with supernatural elements than real sci fi. Fun to watch.

Stranger things 2016 nostalgia, 80s, missing kids

Dark 2017 German series - watch with subtitles, awful with English audio, looks so fake. Maybe inspired by Stranger things, but so different, a lot of unexpected.

Person of interest 2011 procedural but has a lot of interesting ideas. Better as seasons pass.

Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams 2017 based on his books and adapted. I like his stories better but this is quite gripping as well. It is an anthology series.

The Man in the High Castle 2015 again Philip K Dick. Dystopian future where Germany won the second world war. The book was gripping and I think the series does it justice.

Real Humans/Äkta människor 2012 - Swedish series about artificial humans and how they fit into this world. Fantastic.

Humans 2015 - UK remake, also fantastic. They diverge very quickly. As always with great sci fi, it talks about the present and these 2 series show differences between Swedish and UK societies.

The Good Place 2016 comedy about heaven... hell... Love it. Premise, scenario, acting - awesome. Kristen Bell aka Veronica Mars can do no wrong.

iZombie 2015 - comedy, black comedy. And drama. Very well written.

Might add some more later... Also, please recommend stuff. Zeva, some of the titles are on my Netflix list. Must play SN less to watch them 🤣🤣🤣
