TV nerds: what should I watch (slrpnk.net)

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.

Here's an ordered list of shows that came to mind, starting with what I think best fits with what you mentioned and getting further away from there, though I think they're all worth it.

Mr robot

Fringe

The boys

Yellow jackets

Stranger things

The good place

+1 for Mr robot, The boys, and Yellowjackets

Fringe is great. Season 1 is a bit "Monster of the week" but when it gets going it's a great ride.

I love monster of the week episodes. Those are my favorite X-Files episodes, too.
