Magnitus: The first 4 seasons were not a fad, they were amazing. The second half was a bit of a let down though.
BreOl72: I was just thinking: "
after which season did I stop watching GoT?"
And I think it was after (?) season 4.
And I am the opposite to you two.
I felt overall the series was too much all over the place, trying to follow too many subplots and characters at the same time (many of them really felt like fillers), and generally it was moving in molasses. I mean, how long did the dragon lady just wander around in the deserts, just looking for yet another band of slaves or thieves to add to her army? Three or four seasons? I bet she was running in a circle.
During the last two seasons, the story finally picked up pace and some of the characters became actually interesting, and a good thing also was that by that time so many side-characters had died that the number of those loose-end subplots had been cut down a lot.
