I've never seen got in its whole, i tried so many times getting into it until i managed to hate watch 4 seasons, then i got into it and watched s5 to 8 as the episodes were released.
There is a lot i dislike about this, especially as a female viewer and i wanna acknowledge that. A part of the first book shouldn't even been allowed to be published imo. I didn't read beyond that book.
I do like the world building, the fantasy and such. I love Daenerys, and the lore about Targaryens and old Valyria and the language. The dragons, the north and the wall and the white walkers. I wanna try watching it in its whole because there's so much i didn't fully register or understand during my first watch. I'm already noticing my focus is completely different seeing it on dvd than on streaming, yes i regret getting the dvds ages ago and will sell them eventually as i have with some other got merch i had. It sucks my computer doesn't have a cd room and i have to use an external drive, and i even had to download a dvd program, i miss how it was before.
The show ended SO badly i was pissed for years about it, but i finally feel like i'm in a place (also because of the spin offs) where i can sit down and rewatch it again. I do have some fond memories like how the got universe inspired me to do a lot of sfx makeups that the official got twitter shared :')
