Poor writing, naturalistic and violent scenes with absolutely no emotional load, mediocre acting, practically no story. This show has none of the things that made GoT fun to watch. There is nothing to hold on to, nothing to remember and certainly nothing that I would like to watch again. Pick one character, scene, piece of dialog you found least least pleasing from the first GoT season, It will still run circles around what this show has to offer.

The idea behind it seems to be: Fling money, dragons, authors name, familiar opening credits and some motifs at them. They will gobble it up so fast they will choke on it.

It is sad the bar is set so low that this show receives 8.5+ ratings. It is an insult to so many great shows made to this date.
