All my friends were urging me to watch it since they claimed it was the best series ever. i watched the first 4 episodes and no more, i thought there was too much of unecessary violence and it was kind of tiresome.
I prefer Fringe, Dexter and the new BBC series Sherlock, which is the best Sherlock i have ever seen, even better than the latest movies. Mentalist is also ok.
Lol at least you made it that far. No I wouldn't call GOT the best I've ever seen. But it's got just the right mix of turn off you're brain and engagement. Like I say fantasy hasn't really been done anywhere near as good as this on the small screen. There's tons of room for improvement. I've heard Sherlock is excellent by the way. Im not a huge fan of Dexter. But Breaking Bad is something else thats fantastic. Try and watch I Claudius sometime. It's dated a little and its filmed entirely in a studio. However it is brilliantly written and executed with a stellar cast.
