Meh... I don't care for it. Sat through the first few episodes.

I just hate the whole dragons, horses, and swords genre.

Yeah I found that as I got older I grew out of fantasy and into SF. You can have great SF stories that are grounded in real science, but fantasy is fantasy no matter how you slice it.

At least GoT stays away from elves and dwarves and other stupid shite.

Yeah if you're not into medieval style stuff it's probably not for you... But it has the deepest character profiles of any show I've ever seen and yes, haha they do need a lot of characters (Valar Morghulis)

Porn for nerds and dungeons and dragons is completely wrong though.

The iconic thing to this show is that it breaks the idea of the "Main Character Shield"... That's something that actually connects you to each character cause you realize that at any moment, they're fair game

I actually would like the show better without the dragons. Some of the fantasy elements are fine..but the dragons just distract from the more interesting storylines.
