I'd put Stargate SG-1 in that category as well, which had a large predominance of Canadian talent doing the acting.

I also enjoy the Amazon-produced shows such as The Aeronauts, among others. Those never seem to go away, they just add more shows to the list.

Overall, well worth what we're paying for it, TV as well as shopping.
Good points. I too binge watch some of the older series. Although, a lot of what I watch could probably be found on regular old YouTube. A lot of folks do not realize how much is available...Free. I don't mind paying for quality, but like I said, I share my kids' log on for a lot of what I watch. I do pay for YouTube TV and Netflix, but I am not sure I will continue Netflix since they do not even have a filter to bypass all the foreign dubbed stuff that I would rather skip when searching for something to watch.
