Any "old school" TV series out there?

Any "old school" TV series out there where plot is solved at the end of every episode ? All TV series (Westworld, Thrones etc) are now soaps.

    Most of the cop and detective shows are complete in one episode. NCIS as an example. If there is a bit of a continuation from one show to the next it is a minor part of the story.

    The Good Doctor, for the most part.

    there’s continuing character storylines, but the medical cases get solved by the end of the episode.

    Same with Elementary, a crime drama.

    Macgyver is a show from the 80’s. Each episode has a different plot, and the problems always get solved.
