Viewers are crying at ‘best series ever’ and saying ‘the only thing missing’ is another season

A Gripping Storyline, a Star-Studded Cast

Animal Kingdom is currently available to stream on Prime Video, featuring a whopping six seasons. The show follows the journey of 17-year-old Joshua ‘J’ Cody, who moves in with his unconventional relatives in a Southern California beach town after the tragic death of his mother due to a heroin overdose. Led by the tough matriarch Janine ‘Smurf’ Cody and her right-hand Baz, the family also includes the oldest and most dangerous Cody boy, Pope, the fearless middle son, Craig, and the troubled ‘baby’ of the family, Deran. With complex characters and impressive acting, the heists and storyline keep viewers hooked.

The series is based on the 2010 film of the same name.

A Perfect Show, a Beloved Series

Even almost a decade after its debut, Animal Kingdom continues to captivate fans. One Facebook user recently exclaimed, “The only thing that’s missing in this show is the 7th season, or even more.” They praised the show’s complexity, believable acting, clever heists, and gripping main story line. The flashback memory storyline also added an extra layer of intrigue. Many would give the show six stars if they could and are eagerly hoping for a spin-off.

Animal Kingdom concluded in 2022.

The sentiment is shared by many, as another fan declared, “This was one of our favorite series. We miss it so much.” A loyal Animal Kingdom viewer rated it a perfect 10 out of 10.

The Future of Animal Kingdom

While fans are hopeful for a seventh season, it was confirmed that the sixth season would be the last. TNT renewed the show for a final season in January 2021. Unfortunately, there is no news of a spin-off as of 2022. Showrunner Daniele Nathanson stated that she hadn’t heard anything about it, but she believes the ending of the series was intended to feel conclusive.

In conclusion, Animal Kingdom has become a beloved series with its gripping storyline and star-studded cast. Fans continue to call for another season or a spin-off, hoping to delve back into the captivating world of the Cody family.
