This is the whiners version of GoT. There are no standout characters, there are no standout bad guys or good guys. There is a cast of characters that are tedious, nondescript and just plain boring. Even the dragons are boring. How can you make a dragon boring? I could have taken it for 2 episodes, or even 3 episodes IF it had finally clicked and gotten going but it simply refuses to turn into a compelling drama. As exciting as Game of Thrones was this is its poor, boring little brother. That I made it through 6 episodes is a testament to just how great GoT was. If this were anywhere near that I'd have finished the season. I will not even bother to watch episode 7 or 8.
