Perfect example of a writing team that instead of converting a story to a movie or tv show, thinks they are the actual writers and screw up the story. (Yeah were did we hear that story also, but for GOT they actually had an excuse...) So sad, why why why couldnt they be lazy and leave the story alone? No no, converting it to a wanna be political correct fantasy friends series or something. You have a good story, a nice budget but instead of telling the story, you want to change it to make it 'better' well sorry but for my personal opinion it failed. Season 1, wow, yes nice, ok, you still stick to feel of the story. From then on I think someone got high on their succes sniffed to much coke and lost its core story. If it all started with season 3 I dont think there would have been another season after it.
