The Last Kingdom

The picture for this thread looks an awful lot like John Snow riding a horse in Wildling country.

Watching season 2 on netflix right now. Loving it.

I was on the fence because of the weird turn the last episode of season one took.

But season two is good.

I think they're just bad with last episodes. The second half of this last episode took the same weird fucking turn.

I felt like it needed Conan sitting on the throne with, "but that is another story".

I guess they really don't know if they're getting another season, so they try to make it obvious they want one but at the same time provide a conclusion to the current one.

Otherwise, it's a fun show. His accent keeps getting thicker and thicker though. Lol.

What do they call this game?
Stones.
Hmm. Why would they call it that?

Clappa for sure unleashed the hulkamania.

I don't know if I'm in love with this witch and uthers sudden superstition. I'd be more on with it if they hadn't already had a sorcerer last season that he dismissed as a charlatan. There's a larp vibe coming of the first episode, and it really is that actress playing the witch doing it.

Otherwise it seems alright. Give it a few more. Maybe she gets less hack. And it is a nice looking show.

I am enjoying this season.

The seer adds an interesting Helen of Troy element with a twist of lime. I also enjoy how difficult it must be for the main character to constantly not want to kill people from either side of the fight. They did a great job casting both Uhtred and Brida as their story is probably the most enjoyable of the series. I am not finished with the season yet(Only on episode 6) but have in no way regretted my time watching this.

Yeah, started watching it today too, am enjoying it. Seems like Netflix did a good job this season after taking it completely over from BBC Two and BBC America - hopefully that means at least a few more seasons since there are 5 more books in the series after what's covered in season 3.

Lots of silly cliche character decisions, but totally enjoyable S3.

The interactions around a fire at night between 2 characters that have been through a lot...those moments of reflection are really nice and could be used a lot more in things like GoT if it wasn’t so busy cramming events together.

I just finished binging season 3 and thought it was great. It's been a while since I watched s1 and s2 so it's hard to compare but I very much enjoyed it.

Still one of my favorites, hope it comes back for another season.

On another note Vikings started up again last week.

Awesome!

Just finished all 3 seasons with the wife and we love it. I'm very fascinated with the time period and the show does a great job accurately portraying it. Acting is very well done. Can't wait for season 4.
