Fall TV season is well underway.
While a few new series are coming to air, a few have already received the ax.
If you're bored with the current crop of TV shows, we've picked ten of the best series from around the world that you really shouldn't miss.
Most are available to stream on Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon.
"Misfits" (UK)
What it's about: The dramedy follows a group of lower-class teenage felons who have been sentenced to community service. On their first day, they develop super powers after getting struck during an electrical storm.
Why you should watch: The strange, dark, risqué and hilarious world of "Misfits" has been a secret among Europeans and Australians for years airing for five seasons through 2013 making for some of the best supernatural TV since "Heroes."
The series won Best Drama Series at the BAFTA Television Awards in 2010.
Where to watch: Hulu
"Please Like Me" (Australia)
What it's about: The dramedy follows twenty-something Josh Thomas as he comes to the realization he's gay.
Why you should watch: Gently navigating between touching and hilarious, the Australian series is quirky and refreshingly genuine. While it only reached small audiences in Australia, the series has been critically acclaimed in America with reviews referring to it as the "best new TV comedy you've never heard of" and "one of the year's best shows." Millennial network “Pivot" picked it up for at least another two seasons.
Where to watch: Pivot TV
"Luther" (UK)
What it's about: Gritty, dark, and hauntingly cinematic, Luther follows the investigations of Detective Chief Inspector John Luther (Idris Elba).
Why you should watch: The performance by Elba is enough reason to tune into the series. Luther is a blunt instrument consumed by his cases. His best friend for much of the series is a charmingly insane serial killer, Alice Morgan (Ruth Wilson), who he meets in the series' premiere.
The series' pacing and cinematography knows when to let periods of horror breathe without interruption.
Where to watch: Netflix
