Any series suggestions on Streaming channels?

It gets harder for me to find shows I like.  I finished Packed to the Rafters and now on Call the midwife.  I would love to have something lined up for when this is over.    I hate science fiction or drug cartel shows.  I love family dramas like Heartland and Someplace to call home.  

 

I have Netflix, hulu, Hbo max and would subscribe to others if there was something worth it.  I wore out Acorn and could not find anything else on there.

I know you said you didn't care for drug cartel series but The Sopranos was excellent!

Grace & Frankie, Bridgerton, Unbrella Academy, Breaking Bad, West Wing. My husband reluctantly agreed to give West Wing a try and now it's one of his all time favorites and wants to watch again.  I've read on this forum about Sanditon on PBS but can never find it so I bought season 1 and 2 on DVD and enjoyed it.

I just checked "A place to call home" on amazon Prime and it looks like it's $1.99 per episode.  It's not a lot but adds up and I find it annoying to have to pay since I already pay for Prime.
