Beyond noting that occasional tic of too-self-conscious nudity, though, it's hard to overpraise a show that's tamed Martin's tale just enough to make it filmable and matched extraordinary characters with extraordinary actors while finding things to say about justice, religion, governance and the power--and limits--of compassion.

Everything that was always good about Game of Thrones is still good. The ensemble cast remains one of TV's richest, from top to bottom, and even actors who seemed weak in the past (like Sophie Turner, who plays increasingly embittered Sansa Stark) continue to rise to the level of much better material.

There are so many characters and storylines in this complex series that to keep their arcs moving dramatically forward, writers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, creators of the series and custodians of novelist George R.R. Martin’s world, have to parse out so many bits of dialogue and scenes to so many different actors that large chunks of a season often feel like they bounce around frantically, spending little fragments of time with one character and racing across Westeros to service another ad infinitum.

Complete with a host of exotic new locations, Season 5 of Game of Thrones delves deeper into uncharted TV territory in its darkest, most sharply plotted, and most thematic installment thus far, but it must do right by its female characters if it wants to continue its upward trend.

It's not easy adapting sprawling fantasy books into a TV series, but HBO has done it beautifully with "Game of Thrones." It's consistently been the most entertaining show on television for four seasons, and now that the showrunners are breaking new stories, I can't wait to see where it goes next.

Season 5 is the worst of a good bunch. Whilst it has some breathtaking moments, along with shocks that are up there with the best of the series, its also back to some of the sluggishness of season 1 yet it all feels no where near as important *cough *cough* *Dorne*.
