As the title says I am going through a very horrific time. I am mostly surviving by sitting with my mum and watching tv for distraction.

I actually prefer shows that aren’t comedies, but are engaging without being overly dark, minimal sexual scenes. Some action, adventure or light violence is fine. Just nothing scary, dark, or overly violent please.

We enjoy time travel, sci-fi, action, drama etc

some shows we have watched and that have been good so far for reference:

Timeless

Fringe

Travellers

Frequency

Silo

Paradise

Hijack

Queen of the South

thank you!

EDIT: some darkness is okay like Silo and Frequency have but nothing too much, especially not gruesome stuff, constant violence or SA
