Game of Thrones

After 10 years, Game of Thrones is coming to an end.

The HBO fantasy series will wrap up its eighth and final season in the early hours of Monday morning, as it picks up in the aftermath of that scene with Daenerys.

Which we can’t imagine going too well, really.

And while there will most likely be a return to Westeros at some point (there are a few spinoffs in the pipeline), it’s going to be a long way off.

So, if you’re looking for something to watch after Game of Thrones ends – or, even, *instead* of watching the end – here are 7 shows on Netflix that Game of Thrones fans will love.
