One of the major problems with TV that I've noticed is that you can have a great premise and great starting season, then the show gets cancelled for some stupid reason. I often find movies to have higher quality than TV. What do you think?

The Americans was boring af. Stopped watching early on.

I already finished Dark, I loved it, although the "You can't change fate" type of theme is a bit annoying. I watched 12 Monkeys (the TV show, not movie) which is anothet time-travel series and the atmosphere was not as dark (pun intended), and much more "chill" to watch.

The genres I like are: Science-Fiction, Alt-History, Political (but not too "real")

I liked watching:

The Magicians
The Expanse
The Good Place
For All Mankind
Man in the High Castle
(it was dark, but alt-history isn't really realistic so it wasn't that horrifying to watch)
Travelers
12 Monkeys (TV, not the movie)
Game of Thrones (minus season 8, that doesn't exist for me)
Breaking Bad
Designated Survivor
Kingdom (the Netflix Original that's in Korean)
Fringe

Some movies I liked were:

Terminator 2
Interstellar
The Martian
1917
Dunkirk
Back to the Future 1-3
Star Wars 1-6
12 Angry Men
