hello :)
never seen it doesnt seem appealing but people go on about it all the time so im assuming its got an engaging story

I thought it was just HBO softcore when it first came out but apparently thats what it is plus a story. basically, end times

Yippy ki yay, motherfuckers.
Your friends have terrible taste, honestly, and they likely only know of Game of Thrones because of the disgusting, exploitative Showtime series. All Game of Thrones is is a gritty, edgy knock-off of writers like JRR Tolkien, JK Rowling, China Mieville and any number of other contemporary fantasy writers. George Martin wouldn't know creativity if it bit him on his nose. ;)

You should try the Percy Jackson series, or perhaps the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer if you want to enjoy REAL fantasy.

Just watch the South Park "Song of Fire and Asses" arc and you'll get everything you need to know about Game of Thrones.

Really really high production values so the sets and stuff are super good, and actual famous people in it, and it's a character actor/actress bonanza, all those people with distinctive faces who say one or two great lines in every movie show up. Usually they are naked and or stabbing

Hell Yeah

Game of Thrones is a show for bitter and cynical people who want their entertainment to reflect how lovely they think the world is and then revel in it because they've given up all hope of the real world getting better

No people watch Game of Thrones for fantasy escape, because they think if they lived in that world they'd be Jon Snow. Kind of the same principle behind how poor people vote to decrease taxes on the rich. "That'll be me someday, because I'm special!"

game of throne is good, it has led to the almost legalization and social acceptance of incest imo

It's the fantasy version of Deadwood.

Various characters mill about kingdoms betraying each other, killing each other and sleeping with one another.

Sounds high brow until the dialogue ends up being spurts of sex and fart jokes.

Had an episode on last night where a female prisoner spends 10 minutes talking about how her captor is a virgin and should sleep with him like it's a trashy soap opera.

I came across mention of a Gnostic codex called The Unreal God and the Aspects of His Nonexistent Universe, an idea which reduced me to helpless laughter. What kind of person would write about something that he knows doesn't exist, and how can something that doesn't exist have aspects?
Entertainment is stupid and pointless and don't even think of watching it with your friends and having any sort of bonding community experience.

Please don't besmirch Deadwood. The only thing game of throne got from Deadwood is the interminable monologues.
