As a die-hard fan of epic fantasy and historical drama, I must say that the wait for House of the Dragon Season 3 feels like an eternity! But fear not, fellow binge-watchers, for there are gems hidden in the vast realms of streaming platforms that will keep our appetite for intrigue, violence, and romance satiated.
As one season concludes, we find ourselves facing a lengthy delay. House of the Dragon’s Season 3 is in production, but it may not air until as late as 2026.
As a fellow enthusiast, I must admit, “Game of Thrones” is undeniably captivating. We’re all well aware! But what about venturing beyond Westeros and Essos? What other realms are waiting to be explored that could keep us entertained for the next 24 months or so?
Great! Multiple streaming services offer a wide range of content for you. Here are five shows that I think you might find interesting.
Those About to Die
If you’re open to a single-season show, Peacock offers “Those About to Die“, which is set in the closing era of the Gladiator period in Roman history. Fans of “House of the Dragon” and “Game of Thrones” will appreciate its intense violence and explicit content. Additionally, it boasts a stellar ensemble cast, spearheaded by none other than Anthony Hopkins.
You can currently stream all eight episodes back-to-back. We’re keeping our fingers crossed for updates about a potential second season.
Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
How about considering another captivating series with enchanting visuals? Amazon Prime Video offers the prequel to “Lord of the Rings”, titled “The Rings of Power“. The entire first season is now available, and the second season will debut at the end of this month.
The story unfolds several centuries prior to the “Lord of the Rings” novels/films. At this point, Sauron has yet to emerge, but his impending danger looms ominously. For the moment, different factions coexist peacefully, though that tranquility is on the verge of being shattered.
The Boys (and its spin-offs)
If you’re a fan of the intense violence and gore found in “House of the Dragon”, then you might be interested in another Prime Video series, “The Boys”. This show is a must-watch! While it does have roots in a book, it strays significantly from its original storylines. In fact, the show has developed its own unique identity and offers an epic viewing experience.
You’ve got four seasons of “The Boys” to enjoy, with a sixth and concluding season on its way. Additionally, there’s the animated offshoot titled “The Boys: Diabolical” and another spin-off called “Gen V“, which is set for a second season in the near future.
The White Queen and its sequel shows
Are you looking for a show that delves deeper into the historical events that influenced “Game of Thrones” and “House of the Dragon”? If so, consider watching series centered around the actual history – specifically, the Wars of the Roses. One such show is “The White Queen,” which airs on Starz.
The initial narrative delves into the rule and romantic tale of Edward IV, along with his partner Elizabeth Woodville. Subsequently, we encounter “The White Princess“, a story that unfolds during Henry VII’s reign, focusing on his marriage to Elizabeth of York. Lastly, there’s “The Spanish Princess“, which portrays the early life of Catherine of Aragon, detailing her marriages first to Arthur Tudor and later to his brother, Henry VIII.
Vikings and its spin-off series
Moving on, let’s discuss Netflix. If you’re seeking a series that combines historical events, action, strong character growth, and romantic elements, then “Vikings” is the one for you. It spans across six seasons, although it should be noted that as it adheres to history, some beloved characters meet their fate.
Following this, we find ourselves in the next three seasons of “Vikings: Valhalla”, set a century after the original series. The story then unfolds around three primary characters, who engage in battles to uphold the rights of the citizens of Kattegat.
