Serials generally are not free of unlawful elements. The serials mentioned in the question are not free of the appearance of immodestly dressed women, exciting scenes, unlawful mixing, and music. Therefore, it is not permissible to watch them. We advise you to make good use of your time in ways that bring you closer to Allah.
