After 6 episodes, I lost any hope. This show is just not going anywhere nor is getting any better. The plot is boring. It feels more like Downtown Abbey in a fantasy setting/world rather than GOT, but without the likeable and interesting characters. And this is the even bigger issue: the uninteresting flat characters that come and go (die) without giving us the chance to get attached or care whatsoever about any of them. We don't care about birth or death because there is simply no build-up to any of them. And last but not least, the dragons (Title character!!!!) are just a filler, beeing there only because they have to. They take no real part in the story, they have no part in the plot, they are the same as any other "character": no personality, we just don't care about them. In GOT I almost cried when one the dragons was hurt and was in shock when it was brought down from the sky. If a dragon dies in HOTD, I couldn't care les... Overall, very poor effort...
