How can a show become so popular where hero is just a warrior without own ambitions in life. It is like Bollywood movies where a dog once becomes dog forever to his master. Uthred was rightful heir to his kindom, Bebbanburg. But he never takes initiatives to become a king of his own land.
Only few episodes of Season 1 are entertaining and exciting. You will not find it thrilling like GOT or Vikings where you will see various twists and turns. In the Last Kingdom, you can easily predict what will happen if any major event like war happens in the show. How can people compare this series with GOT or Vikings, I wonder. This is all about a slave who is a great warrior who can win every battle.
