seasons 1-4 are art


i feel like GOT has too many story lines to truly crack that level of greatness. that's why the books are so much better, hard to cover things sufficiently in an hour.

Another reason for the ratings is that it is definitely a "water cooler show".

CRAZY things happen that people talk about the next day, tweet about like nuts, etc.

there wasnt DVR in 2002. these numbers are way skewed compared to the Sopranos numbers.

GoT as a whole is far more enjoyable than the wire which I can admit was a good series but not the GOAT people proclaim it to be
