    There is some solid acting, some bad acting, great scenery and atmospheric locations, but boy do they need a lot off talking to move the plot along. Same with the books really. They get sluggish after the first two, unreadable after the third. So show, don't tell.

    When its only the last 2 or 3 episodes that are a worth a damn, its not a good series. At least one of the end journeys came to an end. GOT is suffering from Hobbit syndrome. Needs a good edit because padding out isn't doing this show any favors

    Its a really nice series, but unlike most people here I look at an entire episode and not just the highlights. And the thing is, the highlights are 5-10 min of every episode, the rest is just pure talk, not interesting talk like Breaking Bad had, but just lame, old, boring storys from people that dont know how to express themself in a short manner.

    Terrible, violent, anti-woman (Hell, anti-human) crap. Should be shown to child molesters in prison, not on TV. Not for the faint of heart or anyone else.

    I love this series, but this last season was bad, I was completely disappointed by how slow and pointless the entire season felt.

    It just felt like the show was treading water this season, other than the last two episodes, I think I could have skipped the rest, although you just know wouldn't have.

    Where is this all heading? I've spent too much time watching this show without seeing any substainl development. We get it, bobbs are very nice, but come on, if it looks like Lord of the Rings and walks like Lord of the Rings, it's a Lord of the Rings replay.

    This narrative pokiness is redeemed, as usual, by the machine-tooled professionalism of the production, the lavish attention to the mock-medieval costumes and setting, and the mostly crisp, understated acting by the international cast.... More than ever, though, you may find yourself impatient for the plot to wind around to the more engaging story lines.

    The acting is delightful, the visuals are sumptuous, the stories couldn't be more surprising.

    The storytelling seems to have hit a new peak of relaxed confidence. In every scene you get a sense of steady forward motion. New characters are introduced and old characters deepened, and devious new plots are laid out so deftly that it's not until midway through episode three that you look back over everything that came before and laugh at yourself for not having seen a particular surprise coming
