The seventh season of "Game of Thrones" is now officially over and it's going to be a long wait until season 8. How to survive the 'GOT' withdrawal? One of the most popular remedies is to become addicted to another TV show, so here you are a list of the best shows to watch while waiting for the next season of the HBO's TV series!
10. 'Outlander'
This is a time-travel romance story of a 1940s nurse swept into 18th century Scotland and the arms of a hot Scottish man. Just like "Thrones," the show is based on a popular book series. If you like Sci-fi/fantasy love stories, you should consider watching this show.
9. 'The White Princess'
The marriage between Princess Elizabeth and Henry VII ends the War of the Roses, but as soon as the war ends, a new battle for the control of the throne begins. This show is perfect if you want to watch a story full of scheming and plotting. Moreover, Michelle Fairley, aka Catelyn Stark, plays a major role in the show!
8. 'Orphan Black'
Sarah Manning discovers that she was created during a cloning experiment. There are other girls who look like her in the world and someone is trying to kill them all. With a very complex storyline and a big load of surprises, this sci-fi thriller can seriously help you to get through your 'GOT' withdrawal.
7. 'Stranger Things'
The second season of this bizarre and compelling show will premiere on Netflix on October 27.
It looks like a good time to watch! This sci-fi-horror TV series has a rating of 95% on Rotten Tomatoes and the site's website states reads: "Exciting, heartbreaking, and sometimes scary, "Stranger Things" acts as an addictive homage to Spielberg films and vintage 1980s television".
6. 'House of Cards'
The question is simple: do you like political TV series?
If you do like them, you should watch this show, which is full of drama and action packed scenes that will have you on your toes throughout.
5. 'Spartacus'
It's not good as "Game of Thrones," but it's full of blood, sex and spectacular fight scenes. If this is what you're looking for, give "Spartacus" a chance!
4. 'The Last Kingdom'
"The Last Kingdom" is set in the 9th century AD, when England was divided into seven kingdoms and the Danes attacked the Anglo-Saxon territory. The show features fine actors, compelling battles, and a strong historical plotline. The show isn't as addictive as "GOT" and looks totally different from time to time, but if you like the genre, you should really take a look at "TLK"'s first episode.
3. 'Attack on Titan'
Why we put an anime on this list? Because "Attack on Titan" is a rather new and spectacular show, full of mysteries and very tense scenes. It is set in a fantasy world where humanity lives inside towns surrounded by huge walls to defend the population from Titans, gigantic and scary humanoids who love to eat humans.
If you're a "GOT" fan, is very likely that you will love this show!
2. 'Twin Peaks'
The creepiest show of all time is back and is crazier than ever. If you saw the first two seasons, good, and if you didn't, better. Although we can't say every single episode of the show is a masterpiece, we can guarantee you that you're going to see something absolutely unique.
1. 'Vikings'
Many "Game of Thrones" fans already appreciate "Vikings." If you have never watched this History's TV series, you really should. The show is a historical drama full of epic battles and intrigues supported by great actors' performances. The more episodes you watch, the more spectacular "Vikings" gets. In our opinion, this is the best cure for "GOT" withdrawal, so check it out!
