| impertinence said: I'm sorry that my sour grapes are a highlight in the thread. When I started watching the show I couldn't get enough and the Ned Stark beheading was a true jawdropper. Since then though the show has gradually lost it's way for me. The various story lines are simply just too slow moving, and I only have interest in a few of them: The Khalesi story line started out very intriguing, but has devolved into endless walking around until the story is just not interesting. Bran Starks history is going nowhere, same thing there, started out interesting, now it's just an endless trek that I don't care about. The whole Stannis things is similarily completely uninteresting. The Starks campaign and the conclusion just tedious, and the Kingslayer and Brienne story gets more and more uniteresting the more broken Jamie Lannister gets. Favourite charaters to follow for me are now down to Tyron Lannister and Arya Stark, but the Arya saga is starting to get dreary as well. Just not enough left for me to get interested in. I have not read the book by the way. |
Fair enough. No point to continue watching it if you are not being entertained on some level. I quite like the slow pace and most of the overarching storylines. It is like everyone is playing a chess match or game of Hearthstone. And yes, the card are rigged dammit.
