Game of Thrones or not, this show feels an unnecessary waste of time. The characters in the show have very little depth. The acting is mediocre at best, except for a couple of characters. I can't say much about the storyline as that's still evolving; however the storytelling itself is very poor quality. Most of the things that the characters say just feel uninteresting and unnecessary.

The only good thing about the show so far is its imagery. There are a lot more dragons and they are more magnificent than Game of Thrones. You also get to connect a few more dots that were left for the viewers to interpret on their own in Game of Thrones regarding the larger political landscape.

Overall, feels like a big waste of time.
