    Rating is for the show, not the DVD (not yet released)

    In case you've been hiding under a rock the past 6 months, GoT is THE cable TV show of the year. If you haven't seen it, get the DVD now! Dark, complex and riveting, it will challenge anybody's ideas of what "fantasy" can be. Not for kids, though!

    Love love love the HBO series, the books, and now the Blu-Ray

    Merry Christmas to me; this had better be under my tree this year (well at least the receipt showing it's been ordered)! There was a reason this was on HBO rather than regular cable, it really isn't for children. However, for anyone who enjoys epic fantasy, this is one I highly recommend! The first season was well done. Very close to the book (thanks GRRM!!!) and the changes that did happen were understandable because they did not translate from print to live action well. Cannot wait to own this!

    I need to have this.

    I need to have this under the tree. I am on book five. I saw 3 episodes before it was taken off ONDemand. The show was great. A good adaptation of the book.

    I Also Recommend:

    A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire #1)

    Good

    This is a really good show. Has its share of mystery to it and foreshadowing. Recommend the show if you've either read or heard of the books or just like a good fantasy kind of show.

    Porn with a plot! Bought this sight unseen. I didn't know any


    Porn with a plot! Bought this sight unseen. I didn't know anything about the show. Thought it would be quasi Lord of the Rings. WRONG. Really good storyline and lush lavish sets but sorry, the porn really detracted from the story. Could have been good.

    I do like Sean Bean but I have seen him do better work (LOTR, GoldenEye, and Patriot Games). The Khal, Lord Tryion and Jon Snow are pretty much the whole show. I find myself being more interested in the supporting characters rather than the main ones. A decent show but not in the same league as Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead or even Mad Men. Maybe season 2 is better?

    Love Love Love

    This is one of HBOs best shows ever! I think the packaging is a little over done but well worth the cost!
