scripsiI have watched the first episodes of Games of Thrones! Several yeasr after everyone else. The thing is I was convinced I had tried to watched it and started reading halfway through. That’s my lackmus test for new shows- if I pick up a random book (and there are always random books around me) and start to read, then I won’t watch more. Dracula went that way and season two of True Detectives. But the other day husband went to bed early and I thought I was going to continue re-watching Deadwood. Only I found out when I was already installed in the armchair with a cat in my lap that the Kid had watched Games of Thrones. So lazy as I am I decided to give it another try. And realised I never did try to watch it- I wonder what fantasy series it was that I dissed…
Anyways, what I know about Games of Thrones is that there is a lot of gratuitous nudity, sex and everyone dies. I’m three episodes in and the first two has certainly held true. I don’t get offended by it, but I find it rather boring. But apart from that I find myself rather interested in the various plot-lines and will watch on. At the very least I will get some knowledge of a pop cultural phenomena. :)
Doctor Thorne was low-key nice and the costumes got better fitting by episode two. Not spectacular in any way, but nice.
We are five episodes into season 2 of Daredevil. I found the first episodes a bit slow go, but now I’m enjoying it. I still find Matt rather bland, but I like Foggy and Karen and when the Punisher got a background story and became more than a killing machine he got more interesting too. I like that Claire has turned up again and I enjoy the nods towards Jessica Jones.
