This show is nowhere near as good as GOT. I think diehard GOT fans are in denial and trying to wish this show to be great. I remember watching Game of Thrones the first episode and immediately I was hooked. The cast and the story were fantastic. I hate the casting in this new version and episode six was sort of the last straw for me. It was dead boring. I am disappointed in this and other spinoff shows this year like Rings of Power. I am hoping Avatar 2 doesn't fail as bad to recapture the old magic these new streaming shows have failed. I have a feeling these channels like HBO and Amazon will think twice before investing so much into sequels.
