Three stars for sets. Was so looking forward to this, but no. Just NO! It is so dull, and all they talk about is the throne. The time jumping? Bad choice. Boring casting for the most part, and Matt Smith is just such a poor choice. He is such an overrated actor and I just want to laugh every time you're supposed to be wary of him. Also, he walks like he's been on a saddle too long. The writing is sub par, and if you watch the episodes in On Demand, where they have interviews with writers, producers and show runners after the episode, they are often condescending and talk about viewers "paying attention". I would if you'd written a decent show. Four episodes in and I am not remotely Interested in what happens to anyone of the very uncharasmatic characters. Unfortunately for them, GOT came first and I was hooked from S1 Ep1. This show pales by comparison, and there's no way not to compare. Buh-bye dragons... Zzzzzzzzz...
