Troy: Fall of a City
<img src="https://images.mid-day.com/images/2019/feb/game-d.jpg" alt="Game of Thrones" /> OTT platforms have been steadily delving into the realm of historical period pieces, and Troy: Fall of a City is one of their newer entries. It's a perfect match for Game of Thrones binge watchers. Whether or not you've read Homer, everyone has heard of Helen and the fall of Troy. The latest adaptation proves that the epic story of love and war is as relevant today as it was in antiquity.
Outlander
<img src="https://images.mid-day.com/images/2019/feb/game-e.jpg" alt="Game of Thrones" /> The beloved series of books by Diana Gabaldon has become an equally stellar television series. While Game of Thrones and Vikings rely on epic, large-scale battle sequences to carry the show, Outlander relies on the scorching chemistry between Caitriona Balfe's Claire and Sam Heughan's Jamie to win the day. The series looked rather less attractive than GOT and looked like a body double that nobody watched because they were too busy watching the actual show. Given the show's similar themes, a period setting, political wars, and intense scenes.
But thanks to its time-travelling twist and a true romance at its core, Outlander quickly proved itself to be a series worth tuning in for on its own.
