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.

Wait there's a movie to end the last kingdom? I loved that series.

Black sails is about Teach, right?

Yes, the movie finishes the series and is based on the rest of the books.

Black sails has Teach in it but it isn’t about him specifically. It’s a prequel to Treasure Island and has both historical real characters in it but also fictional ones from the novel like Long John Silver. It’s also one of the few shows that I don’t skip the intro for:
