    Are you sure you have the right title?
    Norsemen on Netflix is a Norwegian comedy show - hardly "historically accurate"
    A little slow at times, but a good watch.

    ETA: "The Last Kingdom" is more historic, and a better series IMO.

    I feel like if I gave a review of Monty Python meets 8th century vikings, I'd trick less people into watching this comedy gem.

    Speaking of comedy[ish] The Good Cop with Tony Danza. NY/ Brooklyn based story line with (to some of us) very familiar outside backdrops. It's really not for anyone who doesn't get ethnic / regional based shows. Each one is a stand alone hour show, with more (again ethnic / regional) humor.
    The 1st episode

    SPOILER ALERT
    Where Tony Danza says (loosely quoted) He's got a guy with a big screen tv coming over, was on the money NY funny, but oh so true.
