    I feel like most fantasy shows now are trying to capture the GOT audience. Everything from “wheel of time”, “witcher”, “shadow and bone” even “rings of power”, etc I don’t think we would have gotten a lot of those if it was not for companies trying to cater to a similar audience but they also all miss the mark imo

      Even GOT missed the mark by the end, if you believe the media sources.

      I watched the first season. It was alright.

      Usually when I consume movies/TV I’m also gaming, so I didn’t get the full impact. My attention was certainly divided.

        You’re going to miss a lot of the nuance in any complex show that way. A lot of storytelling is nonverbal and easily missed if you’re distracted.
