Any good DRAMA shows on Netflix Instant I haven't watched?

Hi, so I have done a lot of watching on Netflix Instant.

These are the shows I've seen:

Breaking Bad

Sons of Anarchy

Mad Men (tried it, but didn't like it)

The Walking Dead

Weeds

Lie to Me (tried it, but didn't like it)

Doctor Who

Alphas (tried it, but didn't like it)

Once Upon a Time (tried it, but didn't like it)

Supernatural

Sherlock

Heroes

United States of Tara (tried it, but didn't like it)

Being Human (both UK and US series)

Nikita (tried it, but didn't like it)

Firefly (tried it, but I didn't like it)

Desperate Housewives (I grew balls-- but it was still good for what it was)

A lot of the shows I tried, I might not even have tried the entire first episode.

I don't like shows that are mainly episodic like CSI, Psych, Bones, etc. and again, I am ONLY looking for Drama series.

I WILL NOT watch episodic shows unless the pull is really interesting to me -- like Supernatural or Sherlock. I get bored of those quick and just give up.

Update:

I've seen almost every cartoon and anime so please don't recommend that stuff.

    Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra are both absolutely amazing shows. (Korra is the sequel to Avatar.) They are the best shows to exist on the planet but they sadly don't get much advertisement so not everyone knows about the show. People who DO give the show a chance and watch it LOVE it. Never judge a show by its network, at least not in this case because that would be a huge mistake.

    They are both shows that follow an epic storyline that lasts throughout all of the episodes, so it is NOT episodic where it starts over each episode. Each episode progresses the storyline.

    Just read the reviews on Netflix or iTunes. The only bad reviews are about iTunes not putting episodes of Korra up soon enough. Doesn't matter age, gender, it is a show like no other and is really one of the only shows that can be thoroughly loved by anyone.

    Here's the Netflix page:

    Here are a couple fan-made trailers to Avatar: The Last Airbender. They kind of give an idea of what the show is about:

    Here are some great videos for The Legend of Korra:

    Here's a great review for Korra:

    Note: Avatar is on Netflix, Korra may not be yet because it is still new. Korra has been called one of the most dramatic shows on TV, because it does have incredible amounts of drama. (just read the last article.) Korra is on other places on the internet and will be on DVD soon if you decide you like it.

    Prison Break! How have you not watched prison break!? I think it would suit your interests well, it's similar to some of the shows you like.

    It's an AMAZING show, I've never seen such a well plotted and well planned out show ever. Especially the first two seasons - you'll see something in s1 that happened so something could happen at the end of s2. The acting is amazing, the characters are just beautiful (even the monsters you grow passion for), lot's of drama in every sense of the word.

    Please try it, just watch the pilot i'm sure you'll like it!

    so you don't seem like the person who would watch these (i might be wrong) but I would honestly recommend Pretty Little Liars and the Vampire Diaries... Lost is also an AMAZING show but it's kind of complicated.... so yeah :)

    Source(s): eh... just me i guess :)
