Mar. 4th, 2011 07:40 pmI know I sure as hell have been waiting for this series, although I also no longer have HBO. I will be willing to buy episodes online if they do offer the chance though, and it would be the only time I would make that exception.
If you're not familiar with Martin's epic book series, think of it as a well-written medieval drama with light fantasy elements and all the messed up stuff you'd expect in some of Shakespeare's most infamous works. What fantastic elements there are don't get in the way of the story, and it's more about iron men in a dark age corrupted by human nature and uncurable from deus ex machinas.
