They did a better job of keeping my attentoion than the books did, aside from the whole bran bullshit. I leafed through those pages in the book and skipped those episodes on the series,lol. That might be why I didn't care for that part of the ending. Don't much care for Bran.
The books are brutal....I still have only managed to make it all the way through the first three and have waded into book four but haven't picked it up in quite a while.
I really enjoyed the TV series overall.
Bran and his story only seemed to matter when a nugget of information needed to be passed on and there was really no other way to do it but through some sort of sorcery. I was bored with him a long time ago because he was such a jackass to a lot of people who either gave up, or nearly gave up, their lives for him.
I thought the casting was some of the best I have seen and the music, costuming, and scenery were also very good.
Of the series I have watched, and rewatched, GoT is the only one that I didn't fast forward through the opening sequence...I liked the music and watching all the pieces click into place.
