Game of Thrones. It was like a less interesting version of Lord of the Rings, with a few mins of porn sprinkled throughout each episode.
My take away was that if you want to watch LoTR, then watch LoTR. If you want to watch porn, watch porn. But pouring both into the same cup doesn’t make it good. …which is apparently an unpopular opinion.

This is kind of a weird take, GoT is not even remotely similar to LotR in style, themes or narrative.

Medieval fantasy. The similarities may end there, but the point is it’s a mediocre medieval fantasy that leans heavily on tits to keep the audience watching.

So is Breaking Bad just Seinfeld with drugs, because they are both set in modern modern USA?
