No dramas, I was being cheeky. I’ve also read the books. I was pleasantly surprised with how well the show portrayed the books (merging of some characters, but expected). Until a point…
I actually had a conversation with someone who had seen the promos for game of thrones season 1 or heard about it somewhere, and we had this huge conversation because I had just finished reading the books and they didn’t even know there was a book series.
After trying the first season a couple times and not getting into it, I didn’t really follow it so I’m not sure if most viewers even know that it’s based on a book series.
I have seen a lot of articles about Martin not publishing any new books though?
I am going to give the show a third try eventually, but I just liked it the second time as much as the first for how poorly I thought the books were being adapted.
It’s good to hear that you enjoyed it, maybe I was just too close to the books still. The last time I watched game of thrones was maybe 5 years ago.
Hopefully my brain has decayed enough to give it another shot.
But then everybody hates the last two seasons with a passion, right? And that’s like 30% of the show?
How? They still aren’t written yet.
Game of thrones actually came out in 1996.
The first five books were already written and published by the time the TV show started.
The fifth one was published just a few months after that first season of the TV show.
They were being cheeky, cause the author is well into a decade+ writing the 2nd to last novel in the series.
I think most people have accepted at least the final book will never happen, that dudes not living the healthiest life right now anyways.
Oh, haha. I’ve had to explain it before to people who only know the TV show, my bad

Got it, thanks.

Mmm.
Basically once the show outpaced the books it went to shit.
If you didn’t like the first season, maybe just jump in at season two for your next watch?
