I have patiently waited through six episodes and as I feared after seeing episodes one and two GRR Martin has failed abysmally with this serious. The original GOT series , and books, got the right balance between storyline , characters and when and where to introduce some action and neat plot twists. This series however, has Horlicks written all over it.

Tonight's episode jumped forward ten years and unlike the original GOT we've got a very different cast for the same characters, very confusing for the first few minutes and as per the previous five episodes, all talk and no or very little action.
