I can't believe "La Brea" is over. The show, about a giant sinkhole in Los Angeles that leads people to a portal that takes them back to the age of dinosaurs, just finished its final season.

If your head is still spinning from that time-travel-inspired ending and you're wondering if a spin-off show based on this series is in the works, you're not alone. Many fans of the series are rooting for it, and according to creator David Appelbaum, it's not out of the realm of possibility.

On the other hand, even after taking a breather, there are plenty of shows to get into now that "La Brea" is over. Whether you were drawn in by the show's main plot, the time travel stuff, or the overall atmosphere, here are some of the best options.

In case you forgot, "Lost" was the show to watch in the early 2000s. A group of people survive a plane crash and find themselves on a deserted tropical island. They band together to survive, only to discover unexplained mysteries and deep secrets within themselves. The characters are wide-ranging, each with their own secrets. Their past, present, and future reveal more secrets and the strange reason they are on the island.

This show will captivate you, especially if you like complex stories like "La Brea." The show won numerous awards, including 10 Primetime Emmy Awards. It is often considered one of the best series of its time. If you haven't had a chance to see this series, don't miss it.

If you got into "La Brea" because of the idea of escaping life-threatening creatures, you will love the "Zoo" series. Based on the novels by James Patterson, the show focuses on violent animals that attack people around the world. Scientists are trying to figure out why, since what they are witnessing is not normal behavior. Meanwhile, the animals' attacks become more deliberate and organized, and the rest of humanity flees for their lives.

Soon after the series began, the creators moved away from the novels and into other directions. The series lasted only three seasons, but it was enough to truly enjoy the outlandish but interesting qualities of the premise.

This sci-fi series is a spin-off of the 1995 film of the same name; set in 2043, a scavenger named James Cole (Aaron Stanford) is sent back to 2017 by an "army of 12 Monkeys." He is scouted to stop a deadly virus released by an organization called "The Army of 12 Monkeys. The disease had caused billions of deaths and threatened to destroy the human race forever if it was not stopped. Cole enlists the help of virologist Dr. Cassandra Railly (Amanda Schull).

But the show goes far beyond simple science fiction, exploring concepts of loss and love, with a sprinkling of humor along the way. This series will stay with you long after you've seen it, and you'll be glad you completed it.

You are living a normal life when suddenly a dome covers the entire town, sealing off all means of escape. That is the premise of the show Under the Dome. Based on Stephen King's novel of the same name, this invisible dome-like force field traps the people of Chester's Mill, Maine, inside. As they try to figure out the cause of this strange occurrence, confusion slowly sets in among the townspeople and the tourists who happen to be passing through at the time.

The series did not receive the same positive reception after season one. In fact, even Stephen King complained about it during its run. However, the show has the same vibe as "La Brea" in that it tries to deal with the unexplainable, which should appeal to fans of that type of series.

Losing a loved one in a plane crash is enough, but it's hard to imagine them coming back from the plane five years later. Even stranger, they haven't aged a day since they last saw each other. In "Manifest," the passengers of Montego Air Flight 828 explore this idea when they return after a five-year absence. Their families, friends, and loved ones are all grieving and moving on by the time they reappear. Beyond the initial shock of understanding what happened, they begin to think about where they were and why it happened the way it did.

This is definitely a more dramatic thriller sci-fi show as opposed to an action type show like "La Brea." However, it does portray a very complex emotional premise that was portrayed in "La Brea," such as the reactions of people to loss and grieving.
