Where GOT finished on a rushed anticlimax, HOTD has continued in the same downward spiral .
There are no complex characters, no humour, no interwoven plot lines ,no sense of an end game, none of elements that made GOT such a compelling are present in HOTD.
Matt Smith really tries to impose himself as the bad guy and stands out in every scene he's in, Paddy Consedine is also excellent, Rhys Ifans isn't given nearly enough screen time
The females characters in GOT were strong & multi layered , but here they are bereft of any real substance, and that's no fault of the actress's, it's just poor writing.
Overall it is basically an extremely expensive ,badly lit soap opera.
I wanted to love it ,but I just can't I'm afraid.
GOT was steeped in legends and the prequel really should of explored where those legends came from, the white walkers,the wall, the tree with the face,where did the dragons come from and was there really magic in those days.
That would of been an outstanding series.
Oh well.

Not as bad as people are saying, but not as good as it should be.
It's trying too hard to be 21st century woman's power piece, with a slice of 70's 4th wall wit thrown in. It fails on both unfortunately.
The writers need to be dismissed immediately because not even Tim Roth can make the cartoonesque scripts he's served up ,anywhere near the the usual top notch Marvel fare we're used to.
I like the actress playing a likeable version of a reluctant super hero,I like the fact that the law firms top dog (a man) uses SheHulk as a commodity & hopefully that story line of her kicking against the misogyny is explored.
I like seeing some of the Hulks family members,albeit uncle's & cousins etc, it's lovely to see behind a superhero's public Image.
But as I said the actors are being let down by poor writing,awful CGI, making sheHulk a quip making parody does the character no favours & thus far there no actual build up of a story line,no action & no drama.
This can only get better , it's deserves to be better.
