Going to accuse me of clickbait for that headline?
We’re only going off what TV Guide are saying, who ran a piece titled “Why Kingdom Is the Best Show You’re Not Watching”.
A family drama series based around those who partake in MMA, Kingdom is a rich and thoughtful piecing together of the complex nature of family, the raw and tiring fight for glory, and the never-ending battle of addiction.
And it’s really, really good.
Here’s the synopsis:
Set in Southern California against the blood- and sweat-soaked backdrop of mixed martial arts, the series stars Frank Grillo (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) as Alvey Kulina, a former champion fighter who now runs Navy St., a gym where he trains current fighters, including his sons Jay (series standout Jonathan Tucker) and Nate (Nick Jonas) and former champion Ryan Wheeler (Matt Lauria), who at the start of the series has just reentered the outside world after serving a prison sentence.
Sounds exhilarating, hey? Check the trailer:
Has that Sons of Anarchy feel to it, hey?
If you have already watched the first two seasons of the series, you might know all this already – and if you’ve been waiting with bated breath for the latest season, it’s here, in South Africa, exclusively on Showmax.
And did we say it’s “express from the US”?
Indeedles.
Sign up to Showmax (click here if you need more reasons why), so you can set your eyes on each episode 24 hours after they air in the States.
Season three already began on June 1, so that makes at least three episodes already available for you to binge tonight.
