That's really all I have to say. Except for we do learn a bit more about dragons and that's always a good thing! And the dragons in this series are magnificent!! (most of the time..)

Matt Smith is about the only saving grace, not his character, but Matt Smith, the actor. And Eve Best. They carry the shows continuity along nicely.

The king had a fairly consistent 5 o'clock shadow that made him look .... tired and seedy. But mostly seedy. He wasn't terribly good GoT genetic material. IMHO.

I agree with a lot of the reviewers who say that none of the characters are worth our effort to care about them. It's hard when really, all we see them do is screw and fight - in all sorts of places. However!!! They are all beautifully costumed (if they aren't stark naked!). Even the art in the queen's rooms is erotic. Someone had a fun time in set decoration!!

I am watching this for costumes only. I do a lot of fast forwarding.

Would I watch it again? No. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a go and see if it's for you. You might enjoy the costumes too!!
