Checked some episodes from some shows I had available, first seasons, DVD or Bluray source:
Miami Vice (1984): 48m
Homicide Life On The Streets (1993): 47m
TekWar (1994): 45m
Nowhere Man (1995): 45m
Battlestar Galactica (2003): 44m
Dark Matter (2015): 43m
12 Monkeys (2015): 43m
Lucifer (2015): 43m
There are exceptions though. Legion (2017) episodes are around 50m, and several of the newer "made for streaming" shows have 50-60m episodes.
The Prisoner (and US series Nowhere Man) is great.
Do you have a link for 4th Dimension? Is it a UK TV series? Available on DVD, streaming or ..?
See also the 1995 US TV series "Nowhere Man", https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nowhere_Man_(TV_series). The single season show is online at https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6fJmjt84zZjDCMUCDmvEnUKDwbWUr4JC. Nowhere Man was influenced by the 1960's UK TV series, "The Prisoner", https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prisoner, online for US viewers at http://www.crackle.com/the-prisoner/.
"Nowhere Man is the story of photojournalist Thomas Veil, who discovers that his life has been abruptly "erased": his friends claim not to know him, his wife claims not to recognize him and is living with another man. His ATM cards and credit cards no longer work. His best friend turns up dead. His mother, recovering from a stroke, is incapable of confirming his existence. In the course of a single evening, every trace of Tom's identity is gone."
Nowhere Man (TV) was more scary, by far.

Sure, X-Files had boogie men, big baddies, conspiracies. In Nowhere Man the evil was ubiquitous, bureaucratic, banal, and terrifying.
