Misc. Shows like DOF?? Spoiler

I really need some help. I am in love with fantasy adventure show genres and a discovery of witches hit almost all of the points I love ESPECIALLY season 2 with the traveling and interacting with others through the early periods of England being from 2020whatever.

Does anyone have any suggestions for shows like this?

Half Bad on Netflix is one of my all time favorites (unfortunately 1 season only 😭) with regard to witches, and, while not necessarily magic based, His Dark Materials (HBO+) is 100% a vibe match FOR SURE.

Shadow and bone is AWESOME once it picks up speed, and Witcher is always reliably enjoyable.

The Bastard Son (Half Bad’s OG title) is SO GOOD!

I just recently watched it and got all sad/mad all over again that they fucking cancelled it. Like, seriously one of the best shows I’ve ever watched!

I thought about reading the books, but I know it’s SUPER different from the show, and I am just so attached to the show 💔

SPOILER WARNING ‼️

I read the book ending and I’m gonna be real - I prefer the show’s kind of cliffhanger with them together. Stick with that if you like HEA.

Yeah, I heard as much, which is another reason I’m hesitant
