Tale
Nine noble families battle for control of the lands of Westeros, while an ancient enemy returns after lying dormant for millennia. Martin’s wife once said she would leave him if he killed Arya or Sansa. Tywin Lannister: A man who has to say “I am king” is no true king. During the opening credits, each cast member’s name is accompanied by their character’s house insignia. Featured in Hollywood’s Top Ten: Critics’ Choice Nominees: Drama (2011).
What’s the consensus?
Main Title (uncredited) Written by and starring Ramin Djawadi. Let’s say you’re reading these reviews and you haven’t watched GoT yet, but now that it’s over, you’re considering marathoning it. In this case, the consensus is accurate, and that is: Seasons 1-6: Outstanding. Deep world-building, clever dialogue, epic Hollywood-worthy set pieces, expert acting, detailed plotting, genuine surprises, a great soundtrack used sparingly. GoT is definitely worth watching for these seasons.
There are unexplained ideas, inconsistent characterizations, and soap opera-like drama
Season 7: Suddenly you notice that the writing and plotting have taken a steep decline in quality. But at least the entertainment value is still very high, so it gets a pass. Season 8: This one plummets to depths you didn’t think possible. The writing has become so amateurish that the still-fantastic production values are no longer enough to save it. If you ever liked Lost but were shocked by how bad the final season was, you’re in familiar territory.
Fatal for fiction
The biggest problem with the final season is that it took us away from the story and made us think about its many weaknesses. We lost our suspension of disbelief. It also ruined the series’ story arcs to the point where a rewatch of the entire series is pointless. So can I recommend a GoT marathon for newcomers? Yes, the first 6 seasons are worth the disappointments that follow.
But it’s not the greatest series of all time
It could have been, but dropping the ball in the final stretch puts it behind the following superior series more worthy of your marathon: Battlestar Galactica (2003-2008) Twin Peaks (all 3 seasons, plus the movie) Breaking Bad
