Game of Thrones

[Phamous]

Does anyone else watch it? I feel like this is hands down the best TV show out there right now and it deserves a thread.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0944947/

It features a lot of characters, so you won't end up hating everyone, and it's really consistent in its creativity.

Also, check out the books the series is based on - ASOIAF

[msk19994]

[Spetsnaz]

Can someone explain what this show is about?
I've seen memes and people talking about this show, but I have no idea what it is.

 

[Allan]

Yup Me to..its awsome...

Spetsnaz , Its basically battle between kings for the throne...
though it may sound "less interesting" , you must watch it !!

@Phamous , Watch "Person of interest" it is awsome too..

 

[Spetsnaz]

king for the throne like the 1850 stuff?
and its too* on the first sentence :P

Click the IMDB link and it'll tell you all the basics, then click the ASOIAF link and it'll answer some of your advanced questions. If you're still confused, ask away.

I might watch this show after I watch
Fight Club
I want to know what Fight Club is about since I never knew there was something behind the movie.

 

[Allan]

Na not 1850...Its sometime BC !

Sad its difficult to type from mobile !

 

[Spetsnaz]

its all good bro!
And I will be watching it soon, seems interesting.

S01 is great.. S02 is not as good as the 1st season (especially the shadow :facepalm: + I feel like they want to have other seasons for the show, so they just dont play the main story)

 

[Phamous]

They've been on point according to the books, and the only major deviation was the whole stealing of the dragons ordeal...

Did you catch tonight's episode? It was the best one so far.

It seems pretty popular, I was going to start watching it but seen it had started season 2 and couldn't be bothered downloading all of season 1 :P

This show is incredible! While I may be bias as the book series is one of my favourite book series of all, But i still think the show itself is great!. It sticks loyally to the books and doesn't "dumb things down" for a wider audience. If you are worried you won't gain the same experience by watching the show before you read the books, don't, it's exactly the same experience, with a different medium!

Finally an awesome series after a long wait....
just completed the first season only

 

[Phamous]

First season was nothing compared to the second one. Shit pops off so fast, keep watching bro.

Don't get me wrong, I like the show, but the show is not the same experience as the books. There is a TON of stuff in the books that you don't get to see in the TV show and there's no way they can put everything in ASoS, AFfC and ADwD in the next seasons.

Storm of swords is split into 2 seasons.

 

[Mcgavin39]

Going to start watching it soon since everyone says its so good!

Great show, Peter Dinklage plays my favorite character (hence the avatar). I have to agree the shadow was really not needed, it was the only negative for me this season.

Other good shows:
Dexter
Spartacus
Boss
