, the long-awaited follow-up series to HBO ’s juggernaut, is finally upon us, thrusting viewers back into the gnarly world of intrigue, violence and dragons. Based on the book seriesby George R.R. Martin, GoT became a genuine phenomenon, garnering a massive fan base and delivering some of the most notable TV moments of the 2010s.
The drama of a succession crisis and the backroom dealings of a council serving a king, who all have different motives and goals, with great actors sitting in ornate rooms, is what madeso popular. The politics and intrigue that the pilot set up are exciting, and that is the factor that made viewers who didn't necessarily like high fantasy get invested in the original series.
The pilot episode had to be familiar and invoke some nostalgia for the original series while also explaining what's going on at this point in history and debuting all the new characters and what there deals are. The first episode does a great job at mixing exposition in its drama, which is a good sign for things to come as things get settled. The series also made sure to remind the audience that this is a brutal world with some hard-to-watch sequences.
