It's old but Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy is great.
Fortitude Session 1 is great. Season 1 is also self contained and the mystery is solved. Season 2 was a new mystery and kind of meh.
Others have recommended several of my suggestions but here are ones that haven't been mentioned (in order of my own preference):
CRIME:
Bosch
Line of Duty
Bloodline
Longmire
The Killing
DRAMA:
Rectify
man, bloodline was so good wish they made more of that one! appreciate it!
Bloodline drove home for me the fact that Florida is a very sweaty place.
Dude Rectify started slow but seems like mid season 2 might start to be picking up ๐๐ป thanks again that was one I'd never heard of.
It's definitely a slow character-driven drama. I didn't know that I would've gotten as far as mid season 2 if I hadn't gotten hooked from the start myself. Hope you enjoy the rest of it.
The Hannibal series maintained my interest throughout, largely carried by Mads Mikkelsen

Look for the original Swedish/Danish version of 'The Bridge.' It's been remade with USA/Mexico and UK/France, but the first is still the best. I usually hate shows with subtitles, but this one kept me going for every season. Body turns up on an international bridge, half on one side and half on the other. Two very different police detectives have to work together to solve the crime.
'Culprits' is from the POV of the crooks. After commiting the perfect crime, a now reformed crook is pulled back in when the wealthy victim comes looking for revenge.
