Closest matches first, then broader nearby picks.
Why this fits: Under Salt Marsh keeps the same contained small-town crime tension as Untamed, with a single brutal mystery that tightens episode by episode. The student-teacher relationship and close-knit marshland community make every conversation feel like a pressure test, but it’s colder and more insular than Untamed’s wilderness-institution hierarchy.
Why this fits: Grace delivers the same methodical cold-case dread as Untamed, where professional rules and personal obsession collide while the investigation grinds forward. A detective’s missing-wife fixation colors every interview and decision, giving the case-of-the-week structure a constant emotional strain, but it’s more solitary and less boss-employee controlled.
Why this fits: Sheriff Country shares Untamed’s small-town crime pressure, where authority is constantly tangled with private life and the case work never stays clean. Watching a law officer juggle investigations alongside family trouble keeps the tension personal and sustained, but the tone is warmer and more domestic than Untamed’s Yosemite-style institutional friction.
Why this fits: NCIS keeps the case-of-the-week closure rolling with a tight-knit team and workplace camaraderie, so you get steady investigation momentum after Untamed’s small-town mystery grind. It’s more feel-good and found-family than Untamed’s wilderness investigation and boss-employee hierarchy drama.
Why this fits: Taskaree: The Smuggler's Web scratches the same methodical crime-case itch as Untamed, but through customs cat-and-mouse and a contraband crackdown. Expect a more bureaucratic procedural and crime boss hunt, with less wilderness investigation and more elite task team hierarchy pressure.
Why this fits: Will Trent brings high-solve procedural casework with wry casework comedy, which pairs nicely with Untamed’s methodical park mystery momentum. The contrast is that Will Trent leans harder into trauma-driven investigator backstory and workplace rivalry, trading some of Untamed’s small-town casefile seriousness for dark-to-dry humor.
