    Yeah, after 10 episodes I’m still waiting for it to kick off. It’s a decent story and it’s well made but just a bit too slow for my liking.
    I remember being shocked when Ned Stark died in GoT. The Velaryon kid has hardly been in this so his death didnt have nearly the same effect.
    Still looking forward to the next series but would hope for a bit more action and a few less graphic birth scenes.

    I thought it was excellent. The entire season has been about setting the scene for the war to come and it’s done it fantastically well.

    It was an excellent finale. They can hardly go in all guns blazing. It was due to kick off, but now it’s no holds barred.

    The way they’ve set up the tension between them and set up the two sides/allies has been great.

    If a finale leaves you dying for the next season then it’s done it’s job.

    Thought the finale was excellent.

    A lot has been said about Paddy Considine...more needs to be said about Eve Best.

    I've just finished binging it. Fantastic. Sets up the next couple of seasons really well in my opinion. Sick that we have to wait until 2024 at the earliest for Season 2 though.

    just watched all ten and it was a struggle for the first 9 ,everything was so telegraphed that it failed to generate any intrigue or suspense ,the odd mention of the prince that promised couldnt do it and stood out like a lame attempt to link it to G.O.T. .had a read through the responses on here and agree too much child birth ,not enough good characters/ story lines, weird time jumps ,good acting in what was an incredibly boring plot ,too few hot naked women and not enough action . the final episode was good and had probably done enough to hook me in but to find out on here it wont be returning until 2024 ,* it

    Episode 2 was really slow and disappointing for me. Even the main fight scene was a bit of an anti climax.
    Also struggling to keep up with who is related to who and how. Having kids with your sister seems normal in Westeros :39:

    I'm bored with it to be honest, full first season was a build up and now looks like the first 2 EPs are more of the same
