Game of Thrones - A classic, or fairy tales for kids and morons?

[BlueSpark]

Just started watching American Horror Story.
Much more like it. Stick your fantasy dragon shite up ye arseholes

[nikkiboy]

Frankly none of what has been discussed so far is my cup of tea, watched one GOT and promptly sacked it off.

Babestation starts at 11pm mate

You don’t need to tell me

Seen a few episodes. Very good. Good shout, I need to watch it as a series.

Fantastic show. Dwight Schrute is one of the best comedy characters ever.

Tried it twice. Both times couldn't finish it.
Why Yanks need to rewrite good comedy is beyond me.

First episode is a blatant facsimile of the uk show. The best is great. Goes downhill once Carrell leaves after series 7 but still has it moments thereafter

Agreed. It's a great ensemble cast.

Never knew it went on so long. Might give it another try.

[Black Velvet]

You’re better off starting at season 2.

Still good episodes in series 1. Diversity Day is great.

[Black Velvet]

Ah yes, the Chris Rock speech! Kelly is a completely different character in that one.

-No
-Do you want to get high?
-No
-I think you do, mon

I think GoT is great, but not for everyone. Also takes a while to warm up, definitely a grower.

Succession is the best series on telly for years, possibly ever. Get her watched

Game of thrones was the best television series right up until the final season where they royally cocked it up.

Just finished Succession.

Enjoyed it, but not in the exalted terms that you describe it. I thought the piano theme music was excellent, though.

[Black Velvet]

Finished in just eight and a half hours!

More string based than piano but yes a good intro.

Genuine question coming up.

I've not seen 1 second of Game of Thrones as it strikes me that it's just a big load of Dungeons and Dragons with tits for the gamer generation.
However, I'm looking for something to binge watch of the coming festive season and am toying with moving onto this after Sons of Anarchy.

In the last couple of years I've discovered some gems like Life on Mars that I somehow avoided and maybe my cyicism is preventing from watching some good TV.

So here's the question - GoT - worth watching, or a load of old sockwank?

Your opinions are genuinely sought.

GoT is a good watch, a bir farcical but packed with plot twists and some great actors.

Have a look at Justified with Timothy Olyphant, sex and drugs and Country music.

Been watching Justified on Amazon based on your recommendation, done almost the first 3 series. A damn good watch.
