A century before the events of "Game of Thrones," two unlikely heroes wander Westeros. In an adaption of George R. R. Martin's novella "The Hedge Knight," a young and naive but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg, face a series of dangerous exploits. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and images of the last dragon have not yet passed from living memory, great destinies and powerful foes await these improbable and incomparable friends.

Critics Consensus

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a welcome return to Westeros that works better in the buddy-comedy arena rather than solely slaying its competition.

"Knight"'s ambitions are modest, its charms are huge. It's a reminder that while Game of Thrones is best remembered for its spectacle, many of the series' most effective moments were similarly modest

It may be an addendum, but it’s proof that there’s plenty of Westeros terrain left to explore.

4/5

Like its heroes, it keeps an old-fashioned, chivalric moral compass: a series simply sworn to protect the innocent.

5/5

With its lighter tone, character-driven storytelling and charming road-trip structure, this breezy, bite-sized fable offers a refreshing change of pace from Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

3.5/5

It's not a particularly brilliant (mini)series, but by its very nature (by what it risks being and by what it refuses to accept), it's an intriguing and welcome oddity. [Full review in Spanish]

One of the finest shows HBO has ever produced. Meaningful and poignant. A fantastic story of honor, good vs evil, and of men. Like the best westerns and military movies, but with knights.
