💯! Okay, I admit that my initial interest in this HBO epic was the ‘dragons’!
“There be dragons here…” Of course, once I was balls deep into it, I had much respect and gratitude for the excellence in story/plot, cast/character development, and the spectacular filming locations.
I’ve never read the books that this series is adapted from, and even after watching this HBO rendition, I have no desire to…
It seems to me, that George Martin ran out of steam, in his authoring further books, once HBO got a hold of the story… ka ching $ ka ching $
The series soon caught up to, and surpassed, where George was ~ with his published GOT saga…
Nevertheless, although I was ‘wtf’ waiting to see the dragons, after every ep, the journey was a grand one. I would chant, “we need more cowbell”, I mean dragons!

Gwendoline Christie and Peter Dinklage were my favourites. Their character portrayals really stood out. Hopefully we’ll see much more of these two in future projects…
