--Lupin, the early 20th-century gentleman thief and master of disguise has become a Black working man in Paris, starring Omar Sy, recently profiled in The New Yorker.

--Trapped, a series about a small town in Iceland with a three-person police department and lots of snow and big crimes.

--Spiral, a Law and Order sort of series in Paris (its French title translates as "cogs").

I second Doc Martin. A TV comedy had never made me laugh out loud that much.

What's special about all of these is the characters.
