Game of Thrones is not a must watch TV show. If you are into that type of stuff go for it, but it doesn't much much of a value in your life if you do watch it.
imho 'Black Sails' did everything GOT was supposed to do with much less talk. Plenty of sex, violence, and intrigue done with great acting and photography.
I would argue that if you come looking at Game of Thrones for sex and violence, you're probably not looking at the right show. Lots of talk and intrigue is where the show was at its best.
I fucking love Game of Thrones, but it's also obvious that the show took a noticeable drop in quality. Starting at season 5 and arriving at season 7, it's astounding the level of complete incompetence from the writers and characters making asinine decisions and nothing makes sense anymore, and Game of Thrones season 8 is a complete train wreck. It's a shame, because all the way up to there, the first four seasons are absolutely amazing.
Yeah when they announced no lady Stoneheart I knew it wasn't going to continue being good. I'm not even a big fan of her but man is she important to the story and how things are changing in the world.
