I just realized that our Kristen wrote my favorite episode of 9-1-1 so far this season. I need to start paying more attention to the opening credits.

I need to rewatch both Justified and Longmire. Thanks for reminding me.
I also recommend Shetland for the setting. The remoteness becomes something of a character - to say nothing of lovely scenery. Mind you, I did have to watch with subtitles on to understand the dialog sometimes.

Justified? That's more people than geography, though.
The dialog suggests that the people are somewhat driven by the geography. I'm not sure the filming supports that, though. I'd definitely agree with the Longmire suggestion.

The first season of True Detective, sort of.

I saw a recommendation for Hinterland and Shetland; if you like BBC-type procedurals there's Vera (like Shetland taken from books by Ann Cleeves). There's also Whitechapel - it's kind of odd and spooky - a young-ish man, son of a famous policeman, is put in charge of the station by that name. He's fairly inexperienced, but he has an experienced sergeant (played by Phil Davis) who helps. The various crimes often seem to follow patterns of historical crimes; they end up bringing in a historian who has all kinds of reference materials. I got the impression that the main character has OCD. There are various creepy things going on, some seemingly supernatural.

Thanks, Toddson.

Whitechapel is interesting but definitely weird. First season is Ripper, second season is the Kray brothers.
There's also Ripper Street, which is almost entirely not about Jack the Ripper. It's certainly got an atmosphere, though it's usually seedy turn-of-the-century London. The acting is fantastic, with Matthew MacFadyen as the lead.

I loved Ripper Street.

I enjoyed both Ripper Street and Vera.
