Psych (2006-2014)
Genre: Mystery, comedy
Seasons: 8
Why You'll Like It: Whether it's your first binge or your 100th, Psych is always a good idea. If you love the questions that surround the people of La Brea, this hit detective comedy-drama will scratch that mystery itch. It follows pseudo psychic Shawn Spencer as he uses his supposed supernatural abilities to solve crime for Santa Barbara's Police Department, all with the help of his best friend and partner, Gus Guster.
Brave New World (2020)
Genre: Sci-fi
Seasons: 1
Why You'll Like It: Like La Brea, this Peacock Original thrusts its ensemble cast of characters into an alternate reality where survival is paramount. Adapted from the novel of the same name by Aldous Huxley, Brave New World follows a utopian society called New London that maintains peace through anti-monogamous ideals, a strict caste system, and control of money, privacy, and family.
Yellowstone (2018-Present)
Genre: Drama
Seasons: 4
Why You'll Like It: With the critically acclaimed neo-Western readying to premiere its fifth season in November, now is the perfect time to catch up on Yellowstone. La Brea fans who thrive off the show's scenic Australian filming locations will be equally impressed by the rolling green hills and vast desert land prominently featured in Yellowstone, which is filmed in Montana. Both shows also offer plenty of heart-pumping adventure and high-stakes family drama to keep you on your toes.
Eureka, 2006-2012
Genre: Sci-fi, fantasy
Seasons: 5

Heroes (2006-2010)
Genre: Sci-fi
Seasons: 4
Why You'll Like It: While La Brea focuses on an extraordinary world-altering catastrophic event, this award-winning sci-fi series delves into the lives of extraordinary people who are fighting to prevent catastrophe. If you're addicted to the drama of the unexplainable, Heroes (which stars This Is Us' Milo Ventimiglia) and its cast of superhuman characters is the show for you.
Project Blue Book (2019-2020)
Genre: Historical drama, sci-fi, fantasy
Seasons: 2
