The Last Kingdom on Netflix

Good show.
Been waiting for more seasons as well.
Was told the source material is great, but I haven't started on any of it yet.
Father Beocca has some killer one-liners.

I expected a couple new seasons by now. Damn good show

---

I saw this show before netflix even had it and I'm still waiting for the new season

Season 2 isn't on Netflix, it's arguably better than season 1.

They did a bad job picking a lead actor. Uhtred in the books was a large man.

The books are great. Uhtred has some great lines.


“Five things make a man happy,” I told him, “a good ship, a good sword, a good hound, a good horse, and a woman.” “Not a good woman?” Finan asked, amused. “They’re all good,” I said, “except when they’re not, and then they’re better than good.”

“I recalled that a man named Judas had betrayed the nailed god. That never made any sense to me. The god had to be nailed to a cross if he was to become their savior, and then the Christians blame the man who made that death possible. I thought they should worship him as a saint, but instead they revile him as a betrayer.”


“Because there could not be peace, not while two tribes shared one land. One tribe must win. Even the nailed god cannot change that truth. And I was a warrior, and in a world at war the warrior must be cruel.”
