Actually your dramas are much better. The sopranos ended horribly, six feet under was depressing and quickly forgotten, battlestar galactic was another disappointment at the end(like Lost). Carnivals was incredibly but never ended.
North American dramas get greedy and go too long until there show gets tarnished.
You have State of Play, House of Cards, jewel in the crown, downton abbey. Etc etc etc...
