I cannot lie... I have never been that much into television shows, but Game of Thrones has turned that around for me. It is only the best thing to ever happen to TV. The combination of war, syfy, love, and passion brings viewers into a new world and drives the ratings through the roof.
The complexity of the characters has lead to serious conversations with friends, which is enlightening compared to most TV. I have never cared so much about a character's motives and feelings, but I just want to continue to dive deeper into their world.
