Season 1, game of thrones
Recently I have gotten D into watching Game of Thrones. The other day we finished season 1 and he told me that he was down to binging the whole thing. Little did he know that I own all the seasons on DVD. And of course when it was over we ended up talking about the season and what we thought about it overall. He told me that years ago he tried to watch episode 1 but ended up giving up after that because of the huge culture shock in the show. We even had a mini argument about how many people in the first episode were implying incest. He thought there were three characters but there’s only one. For him that was the breaking point las time he watched it and I told him that he was reading into the show too quickly.
Of course after the second episode was finished he realized what I meant and we kept watching. The show has it ups and downs (like any other show) but really I think it is well produced and has this way of keeping you on the edge of your seat. There’s lots of politics, war, gore, mystery, and myths all in the show itself. I think it keeps the show interesting and I honestly feel like its one of the better shows.
I know a few people who haven’t jumped on the game of thrones train but I really do think people should give it a chance. Its got a little over everything you need in a show and I really think that its worth owning on DVD. Of course if you’re not into the blood, gore and the mythical then I would say that this show is not for you and to pass up on this all together and if you are into this stuff then I hope you will give it a try.
