khal mongo goes from 'LOL' to 'oh okay i believe you' at the drop of a name (ok)
They're dragging this Jon Snow thing on too long, which is overly disappointing. Anyone else find it annoying when a show becomes self aware and structures it's plot to be like "FIND OUT NEXT WEEK, TUNE IN TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS"? It doesn't make the story flow well and really leaves a"meh" taste in my mouth. Movies too. The Force Awakens being a most recent example. Or the Walking Dead season finale. It hinders the story and audience viewing rather than enhance it. Plus HBO is a subscription channel, so it's not like they lose money if I decide not to tune in exactly at 9:00 PM because of last week's cliffhanger.
Should I watch this show? Isn't it just Tolkien eqsue high fantasy?

There are supernatural elements in the lore and sometimes in the story, but the mundane medieval aspects are much more apparent.

Widows of Khals are totally off limits. Makes complete sense to me.
