They GoT it right!
1 October 2022
GoT is still my favorite show of all time, even considering the light drop in quality from season 7, and rushed season 8 (which on second view actually isn't that bad). So, a spin off. Didn't know what to expect. But I am pleasantly surprised. With perfect pacing, brilliantly acted characters and an intriguing story line, I was hooked from episode two. What a well written show. The dialogue is GoT at its best with all the forboding and innuendo in even the simplest conversations. Supposedly written by the shows writing staff, as the book are more descriptive with less dialogue. Episode 6 did confuse me a bit considering the massive time jump, and only select cast members being replaced for older versions, where the male characters are the same. Some older looking, like the king, while others look exactly the same. I suppose there is a reason for this, will have to see how the rest of the season unfolds.
