If you put GOT aside and watch this show on its own merits it still falls way short of being "watchable " And it's definitely not even the same league as GOT. I waited 6 episodes thinking it might take off eventually but never did.its still taxing stopping turn taxing again.

Atrocious cast selection baring Otto who is now gone for example Dr who is the mindless warrior...yep totally fitting. Sub-par acting and story more bland than sugar free ice cream makes for a show just a little more entertaining than watching paint dry.

Only thing going for it is CGI which in this day is no achievement at all.
