I haven't watched TV in years; kids and my previous job really killed that.

There's SO much out there since I last picked up a remote, and I have a fucking huge backlog.

I'm open to anything, as long as it's well done.

Series I liked: Vikings, Norsemen (hysterical), The Americans, GoT, Man in the High Castle, Expanse, Spartacus (Batiartus is amazing)

I'm scratching the surface of Boardwalk Empire, but open to other rabbit holes.

Lots of good recommendations already. I especially second Last Kingdom since you liked Vikings. There is the series + one movie that ends things. Also seconding Peaky Blinders because it is fucking amazing.

I will add His Dark Materials (based on YA novels, but really good) and Carnival Row (can't vouch for 2nd season yet as haven't had the chance to watch it, but 1st is great).

House of the Dragon too, since you liked GoT (again, can't vouch for 2nd season yet).
