A Netflix series is drawing comparisons to the popular show Game of Thrones.
Game of Thrones, a fantasy drama television series, graced the screens from 2011 to 2019.
The plot revolves around a power struggle among nine noble families, as they engage in a fierce war to seize dominion over the realm of Westeros.
As a result of its tremendous success, the spinoff series House of the Dragon was released. However, as of now, only one season has been aired, leaving fans in a state of uncertainty about their next obsession.
Fortunately, there is another highly acclaimed series that is drawing comparisons to the fantasy drama, earning the title of ‘one of the greatest series in history’.
Please view the trailer provided below…
The Last Kingdom takes place in 9th-century Anglo-Saxon England, depicting the valiant resistance of the English against Viking invaders hailing from Denmark.
Engaging in a Twitter conversation about the historical drama, a fan expressed their thoughts by tweeting:
“Extremely captivating from its soundtrack to its staging in battle through history, everything, in general, is transmitted in an impressive way.”
“This season has been really moving and for me, it is one of the best series in history. Masterpiece 10/10.”
While another adds: “Recently finished watching The Last Kingdom. This show seriously doesn’t get enough attention.”
“It’s one of the most consistently well-written shows I’ve seen, even with the low budget of S1 does the writing shine, and continues to improve over time. Highly recommended.”
“The Last Kingdom is my favourite Netflix show. Its series finale far surpassed Game of Thrones finale!” writes a third fan.
A fourth says: “Well better than Game Of Thrones. Don’t think there is a bad episode let alone a bad season.”
Someone else pens: “What a show. Almost had me in tears, the last scene of the final episode. Anyone who hasn’t watched this show is genuinely missing out. 10/10 from me.”
Recently, the fifth and ultimate season of The Last Kingdom concluded its broadcast.
On April 14 of this year, Netflix released a follow-up film titled Seven Kings Must Die.
It achieved a commendable 82 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The film serves as both a sequel to the final season of The Last Kingdom and a fitting conclusion to the story.
The Last Kingdom first premiered on the streaming platform in 2015, marking its initial debut.
Despite the initial lack of hype surrounding the show and the fierce competition it faced from Game of Thrones during its peak popularity, The Last Kingdom has gradually garnered a substantial and dedicated fan base.
With an IMDb rating of 8.5 out of 10 and an impressive Rotten Tomatoes score of 91% (with a 95% audience rating), The Last Kingdom has received high acclaim from both critics and viewers.
Although the release date for the upcoming film has yet to be disclosed, fans will undoubtedly eagerly await its arrival, eager to be reunited with their beloved characters.
Netflix offers all five seasons of The Last Kingdom for streaming, allowing viewers to enjoy the entire series at their convenience.
