Agree.



Using the adjective "stupid" is laughable when referring to one of the most critically acclaimed shows in the past maybe 20 years


And a show that has made a pop culture impact on the 2017 football team

Start with reading the books.  They're excellent. Show is very good, the books are off the charts.

Just about as pointless no a lot less pointless than tying you life's enjoyment to a fake tv show.

Show may be great

Job may have great

One thing is sure, your gonna get a lot more out of what you need in life from a great job.

Dude. You've spent 50 days of your life on this website reading random people you're never going to meet talk out of their butts about Razorback Sports. I've spent less on Game of Thrones. :)

Also, one of my friends is a writer on Game of Thrones. He's a drunk genius from Alabama who's half Japanese, half redneck and one of the most brilliantly disfunctional, yet highly talented people I've ever known. He found the job that kills two birds with one stone. Gets to watch every episode of the best TV ever made and gets paid like a Prince to do it.

No offense, and I mean that honestly, but I'll take a Winter is Coming reference over the use of "Sad" to punctuate a thought in a condescending way. I never thought the way Donald Trump argues over Twitter would end up being his most lasting legacy. But I think it might end up being just that.

And hey, everyone likes different things. As I mentioned above, we all spend an irrational amount of time on this website talking about Hogs sports. It's irrelevant to 90% of the population. My wife questions my sanity. Yet, for us -- it's entertainment.

So, you don't get Game of Thrones. No big deal. Doesn't mean it doesn't have meaning for those of us who do like it.

Ah but I don't praise this website and dump on my job.  Just a matter of what's really important.  By the way did that writer share any of his new found loot with you for your time spent watching his show?  And besides The Razorbacks are about #4 on my list of most important things in my life, is Game of Thrones that to you?  Will it be 50 years from now when you are 60?

I don't much care for it for the soap opera-like way they keep killing off all the characters I like, haha. But the show itself is tremendously well-written (easy given the source material, I guess), the action scenes are legendary, and the story is fascinating. And the casting is spot on. To call it a stupid show, you must just really, really hate the fantasy genre. That or you hate memes. I loosely keep up with it because my girlfriend is addicted to it and I've slowly come around.

There have been a lot of shows over the years that was critically acclaimed that didn't make it and a lot that were skewered by the critics that did make it. That being said it has been a huge success and my hats off to it but I never got interested in it. I don't base my entertainment choices by what so-called professional critics say.

Watched one episode. Didn't like it. Others do and that's cool. Life is great that way. We all get to make choices. Have a ton of friends who think it is incredible. Have a few who think it sucks. Why do we care if other people approve of our tv viewing habits, or take so much offense when somebody has a differing opinion? It's like having lunch with me and saying that you can't believe I like chicken and being offended because I tell you I love it. look inward at your own choices before you come at me for mine.

Most people don't. It's actually rare to have a show or movie that is liked by both. Simply what I was pointing out.

Not everything is for every one, but it is dumb to write something off and discredit it as stupid just because it isn't for you.  (Not in reference to you specifically )

I never watched the show until Feb. Retired and moved. Binged watched the past 6 seasons in about 11 days. Always wanted to watch it but just didn't take the time. Couldn't wait for season 7 and now can't wait for sunday night 's episode! Awesome show. Fantastic battle scene last night. Maybe the best episode ever last night! Only 3 more episodes until it's done for this season and we'll have to wait until fall of '18 or spring of '19 for the final season.

Don't think it's the best ever, but it's top 5-ish, imo.

Hardhome, Winds of Winter, and Battle of the Bastards are my personal top three.  Not necessarily in that order.

It happens. Every time I watched that show Scrubs I got a weird, uncomfortable feeling like I used to get when my uncle Ronnie would tell jokes in public. A whole lot of cringing and waiting for sympathy laughs. But people love it like it were some culty, slightly under-the-radar Seinfeld or something. And I get the appeal and wouldn't crap on the show because I understand people have different tastes. Just because Scrubs, for me, is my Uncle Ronnie, doesn't mean it can't be someone else's Seinfeld.

It was certainly one of the 'classic' episodes last night . Very enjoyable. I started watching halfway thru season 3 after binge watching the first two seasons over a 3 day weekend. Show is the tits.

Lol at best show ever. Obviously surrounded by dorks with low standards when it comes to rating television shows. It's funny seeing them attack people who do not agree or watch the show. It's like 1983 again and watching the Dungeon and Dragons nerds getting wound up. Nevertheless, for those who are fans enjoy. Just don't attack those who are not into the fantasy genre or have better things to do than watch this series.

How much GoT have you watched? 

I don't know about the best ever, because Breaking Bad is tough to beat (and I still haven't watched The Wire).  But GoT is just an absolute blast to watch.

Just out of curiosity. What's a good show in your opinion since people who like GoT have low standards?

I know a bunch of people you wouldn't consider nerds that love the show.  A lot people think anyone that is on a message board is nerd too. If you have watched it and don't like it then I guess we can agree to disagree. IMO it's right up there with Breaking Bad and The Wire.  I am not going to say it's the best yet because the show isn't over yet but it has a chance if it finishing strong.
