What's different about GoT compared to most other shows is that there are just so many fascinating characters (and so many narratives that they are involved in). It reminds me a bit of The Wire in that way, but there are perhaps even more in this world.
No scene is also ever a throwaway...everything matters. It never gets boring because of that. The writing, direction, and locations are also fantastic, you can tell the producers put a lot of effort into it. |

It's the only "Event TV" for me right now. |

That's rare. Young Anakin, for example. |

I saw the very beginning of the very first episode of Deadwood. Seemed kinda boring. Incredibly small sample size though. I'll give it a chance.

The appeal of GoT/SoIaF is investing in people who think like you, or appeal to your better angels, and anguishing through their setbacks or applauding their accomplishments. Soapish? Maybe. But GRRM has crafted characters so intricate and intimate that you get utterly swept up. |
For all those with Deadwood 'in queue' without having seen it, I am . . . jealous.
I would love nothing more than the opportunity to see Deadwood for the first time again. There were a couple of scenes towards the end of season one, where I whooped and hollered like I hadn't since Montana/Horseface '94. Milch, with Deadwood, is modern day Shakespeare. |
