Star Trek: Strange New Worlds just started its second season and it's been really great so far, probably my favorite Star Trek since TNG.

This show is so good. Every time I start an episode I end up pausing it so I can get proper baked and eventually get distracted with something else. XD
There is a spin off Doctor Who show, Torchwood if you liked the Captain Jack character.
Cpt. Harkness is a babe, and I’m a dude. Hadn’t even crossed my mind, good call.
There's also Class and the Sara Jane adventures for spinoffs. But torchwood is probably the best of them.
You could always watch Stargate sg1 and it's spinoffs. Maybe skip Stargate Infinity. Plenty of material to binge there.
If you haven't yet, check out the Orville.
- Star Trek: The Next Generation
- The Orville
- Fringe
- Picard
- The Mandolorian
- Firefly
- Stranger Things
I've repeated a few. But I highly recommend these.
I really liked fringe. Campy enough to be charming, but deep and philosophical enough to peak my interest.
It definitely had a nice middle ground in that aspect
Go for the full stargate trip, the 97 movies, then sg1, intermingle with atlantis and the sg1 movie by release date, then universe. download it all then plan ahead.
-the expanse
-raised by wolves
They're both pretty damn good imo.
If your into fantasy, my favorite recently is definitely 'The Magicians'. It's based on a book series, but the show is kind of it's own thing and I think it's superb. It's sort of a mix between Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, with lots of time loops and really well thought out magical power system. It's also got musical numbers and is just campy enough to be enjoyable
I'm so sad that raised by wolves was cancelled. Incredible sci-fi show!
It's a shame cause it really had some mojo.
Seconded Raised By Wolves, that show was absolutely bonkers
Have you watched any classic who? Quality varies a bit but it's the type of thing where you can pick and choose which stories to watch. It's available on britbox in the U.S., I've been enjoying it a lot lately
More in the documentary vein, but James Burke Connections always gets me to konk out.
I’m late to the party, and there’s only one season, but we just finished Silo on Apple. That show was badass. There’s a second season already filming.
I know you asked for shows, but the Expanse books (especially the first 2) and beyond awesome. The science and the approach to uneven technology distribution and advancement is so cool. I haven’t seen the show yet though so can’t speak to that. I can read after a sesh, but not everyone can.
