Before David Benioff and D. B Weiss ruined Game of Thrones with season 6-7, it was the most compelling show on TV. This show is similar to the last couple seasons of GOT. There is lack of character development, incoherent story lines, everything is a mess. The only think it has going for it it's that it's connected to GOT. I believe if it had to stand on its own, it would have been cancelled by now. It is beautifully shot but that's where it ends. It's hard to get invested with the characters since they are all over place and they keep jumping a few years in between episodes. It's basically a TV version of GOT footnotes for dummies.
