I’ve been prescribed medical for about a year for chronic insomnia and have been slowly making my way through modern Dr Who before bed. Almost at the end of Calpadi’s seasons and need some recommendations of what to watch next.

Star Trek: Lower Decks has been good to pad it out, and unfortunately I recently rewatched the GOAT reboot of Battlestar Galactica recently so that’s out.

Hit me with your best sci-fi and or fantasy fellow ents.

Not an ent but a lover of sci-fi & the new Dr. Who in particular, who spawned a gaggle of kids with similar taste, here are some of our favorites - not all are sci-fi or fantasy but loved by us and not too disturbing to watch before bed.

If you have Disney Plus, the Star Wars spinoffs, especially Andor & Clone Wars. Mandalorian is good too but more of a space western.

If you can get the BBC (no not that kind of BBC get your mind out of the gutter) Chef! is great, the old Dr. Who shows as someone else said, and I loved Red Dwarf & The Mighty Boosh. The IT Crowd is absolutely hilarious.

I liked the Wheel of Time shows and kind of liked the Rings of Power. My kids didn't. Absolutely love Star Trek Next Generation, again the kids don't.

Me & my penultimate child loved the Good Omens shows. Gravity Falls is good.

Hope this gives you some ideas. Also - if you don't mind some horror, my youngest has been going through the old X Files, those go on forever it seems.
