this is an awesome series.. can't wait for season 2.

At first when I started watching it I thought it was dull, boring, drama, political shit and alot of chatter and talk and shit...

However pass Episode 5 and i'm glued. Everyday back to my desktop had to watch 1-2 episodes of it as I am curious as to what it's gonna happen next. The plot is thick, with a lot of political agenda, manipulation, good vs evil, myths/folklore and much more... it's like LOTR but with less magic/effects yet with more BRAINs.

Best watch with downloaded English subtitle as you do not want to miss an important sentence/word that will keep the story flowing. Heck I had to pause at certain parts to read this wikia coz was too curious to know more! :

With the above you'll have a much better understanding if somehow you got lost while watching.

5 stars definitely from me... anticipating Season 2 next year!!

Reception

Anticipation for the series was described by various media outlets as extremely high, with a dedicated fan base closely following the show's development.[77][78] By April 2011 multiple entertainment news outlets had put it at the top of their lists of television events to look forward to in 2011.[4][5]

The majority of reviews for the show were very positive, with critics noting the high production value, the well-realized world, compelling characters, and giving particular note to the strength of the child actors.[6][7] Tim Goodman's review for The Hollywood Reporter stated, "a few minutes into HBO's epic Game of Thrones series, it's clear that the hype was right and the wait was worth it."[11] Mary McNamara from the Los Angeles Times called it "...a great and thundering series of political and psychological intrigue bristling with vivid characters, cross-hatched with tantalizing plotlines and seasoned with a splash of fantasy."[79] New York Post's Linda Stasi gave Thrones 3.5/4 stars stating, "The art direction, acting and incredible sets are as breathtaking as the massive scope of the series."[80] Many critics praised Peter Dinklage for his portrayal of Tyrion Lannister, with Ken Tucker from Entertainment Weekly stating, "...if Dinklage doesn't get an Emmy for his clever, rude Tyrion Lannister, I'll be gobsmacked"[7] and Mary McNamara from the Los Angeles Times stating, "If the man doesn't win an Emmy, heads should certainly roll."[79]

As of August 3, 2011, Game of Thrones has a Metacritic average of 79 out of 100 based on 28 critic reviews, categorized as "generally favorable", with a user score of 9.0 termed "universal acclaim".[81]

that's why most of us went on to read the books, can't wait for the next season to air, it's freaking torture!

and the dragons are really cool, i mean REALLY REALLY COOL!

usually in a TV series i'll find 1 or 2 characters or actors that i hate (especially the actors) but GOT doesn't really have any, i even love the bad guys... thumbup.gif

Haha that would take up too much cost for CGI effects (for a short series)... anyway I'm glad for the effort... it's still as good. smile.gif
