Is it for me?
Viewers who liked the family feuds in Game of Thrones more than its long marches and big battles will feel at home. Most scenes are people talking in rooms, and a dragon turns up only now and then. At one royal hunt, Otto Hightower uses a white stag sighting to nudge the king, which is how most fights get settled here.
Before you start
Season one jumps forward years between episodes and moves fast; season two has fewer jumps and slows down for more scheming and talk.
3 seasons, 26 episodes, 66 min each, about 29 hours so far
