Interesting...in the show itself, the title says "Wonderland" in big letters, and under it "Science Fiction in the Atomic Age."

The series is called "Wonderland." The first season (2022) was subtitled "From JR Barrie to JRR Tolkien." The second season is subtitled "Science Fiction [not "Sci-Fi"] in the Atomic Age." IMDb has the first season at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20205200/
Sky has it posted as its own show without Wonderland mentioned https://www.nowtv.com/watch/science-fiction-in-the-atomic-age/iYEQYZHWrEf3mP7SyKsgvj/iYsxVPbHDwPSgdttehT6B7/seasons/1
