With Plex and Jellyfin, you set up a central server that will serve clients on all of your devices. So if you watch half of s2e3 on your tablet, then switch over to the living room TV, it will continue where you left off.

They also have clients for all major platforms and for web browsers, and can be accessed from outside of your home. I'm currently in Portugal, watching TV shows off my home machine in Germany via my phone or my Amazon Fire TV or my laptop.

It's much like having your own self-hosted Netflix.
