Sunderland Till I Die is a Netflix original series that takes a detailed look at the ups and downs of one of the most iconic football clubs, Sunderland AFC. The series follows Sunderland's 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons in the third and second tiers of English football, respectively. The show's title is derived from the club's well-known chant, "Sunderland 'til I die".

The series takes a unique approach by focusing on the club's management, players, staff, supporters, and community instead of merely following the on-field action. Viewers get a glimpse of all aspects of the club - the good, the bad, and the ugly. Sunderland Till I Die is an emotional rollercoaster that showcases the passion, aspirations, and disappointments that Sunderland fans experience.

The series is narrated by Nick Barnes, a BBC broadcaster who has been covering Sunderland football for decades. It features several players, such as club captain George Honeyman and Aiden McGeady, a former Premier League star who joined Sunderland in 2017.

The first season of Sunderland Till I Die begins with the aftermath of the club's relegation from the Premier League in 2017. The club had suffered multiple setbacks in the past, but this one was particularly devastating. As the season progresses, the show sheds light on the club's efforts to recover from their relegation and earn promotion back to the Premier League.

The second season of Sunderland Till I Die focuses on the club's struggles to adjust to life in the third tier of English football. The team was plagued with injuries, and the management had to go through the tough task of rebuilding the club again from scratch. The series highlights how challenging it is to compete in a league that is typically not as lucrative compared to the top tiers of English football.

The show also focuses on the club's die-hard supporters, who are as passionate about the club as the players themselves. The series provides viewers with an insight into what it means to be a Sunderland fan - the highs, the lows, the sense of community and togetherness that comes with supporting a club through thick and thin.

Overall, Sunderland Till I Die is an excellent show for anyone who loves football or is fascinated by the inner workings of professional football clubs. It's a compelling, heartfelt, and honest portrayal of a club that is undoubtedly one of the most passionate in English football. The series is a must-watch for any football fan who appreciates the human side of the sport.
