The Wire, Breaking Bad, House, Sons of Anarchy, The Shield.
Going to throw some in that haven’t been mentioned that are worth a mention: Top Boy (Netflix, split into top boy summerhouse which you should watch first then the series just called top boy)
This Is Us (Amazon prime. Not my usual as there’s no drugs, guns, car chases, explosions etc. but the way the show moves through time is really good and easy to follow and I think some of the writing/acting is spot on)
Yellowstone (watched fairly recently, it’s really brutal and the first series doesn’t make much sense but after that it’s brilliant. Hasn’t finished as I believe there’s a contract dispute of some sort but will wait and see if anything happens) – that description doesn’t sell it very well does it ?
