10 Reasons Why Game of Thrones is the Best TV Series Ever 1
SHARE

Game of Thrones is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin’s series of fantasy novels. It has attracted record numbers of viewers on HBO and obtained an extensive and active international fan base. It has received widespread acclaim by critics, despite its criticism due to nudity, violence, and sexual violence.

The TV series has won numerous awards and nominations, including a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Drama Series for its first four seasons and a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Television Series.

Here is a list of 10 Reasons Why Game Of Thrones is One of The Best TV Series Ever.

And here’s how I started watching Game of Thrones.

 

After watching this video, you’ll know exactly what to expect from the series, and you’ll find out that you won’t be disappointed. Even people who haven’t been into historical fantasy find themselves being swept right off their feet. The characters gift us with a little escape from reality, manipulating us into staying hooked on to watching the series up until the end. A delightful manipulation, in fact. You’ll end up falling in love with the characters, their backgrounds, and the historical elaborations involved.

 

Here are ten reasons why Game of Thrones is the best of them all. (Hard to hand-pick a FEW reasons, and you’ll find out why.)

 

Disclaimer: None of the following points elaborate the plot, so no spoilers, you see.

1. Storytelling

got1

If you’ve watched or when you watch Season 1, you’ll be taken by a surprise when you watch episodes 9 and 10. Like I said, no spoilers. Watch it to find out why GoT is not one of the very normal TV series.

 

2.  The Politics

We certainly experience pleasure and surprise as we watch intricately how the developed characters lie, cheat and murder their way to power. There’s this feeling that we’re close enough to the action to be knowledgeable, only for that knowledge to be stripped away from us at every episode by some quite despicable antagonists. This sets GoT apart like a piece of nothing but perfection.

 

3. Pace of the Plot

The producers have taken ample time to slowly ramp up the tension and create a world that is both magical and filled with the sort of timeless drama that engages viewers. It is so visually appealing to the point where you can’t stop watching it, and you’re well, addicted to it. The producers of GoT have succeeded in building tension and creating a compelling world filled with interesting characters.

 

4. The Building of a Whole New World

Game of Thrones is aimed squarely at adults, and it is not campy, self-referential, or comical. It basically does what serious science fiction and fantasy have always done, functioning as a symbolic commentary on the main social and political issues of the day.  -Barna Donovan, PhD, professor of Film and Media Studies at Saint Peter’s University says that “It creates a world of fiction and fantasy that the adult audience can escape off to”.

 

5. History Well-captured

The series is a realistic fantasy(yep) that perfectly describes the details about the various cultures, customs, and traditions that make it very authentic and believable and creative and original.

 

 

6. Landscapes- A Visual Treat

The tree-covered settings of the North are shot in Scotland and Northern Ireland, other parts of the GOT universe are located throughout Europe and Africa. Scenes from The Iron Islands are actually shot in Ballintoy Harbour of Northern Ireland, for example, while Yunkai (aka the Yellow City) was shot in Morocco. An absolute treat for our visual senses, indeed.

 

7.  A Treat To All Our Senses

While watching the episodes, the sexually explicit scenes leave the viewers guilty of indulging in voyeurism. The violence keeps our heart rate increasing and mercilessly keeps us hooked onto the series.

 

8. Neutral to Difference  – Doesn’t Ignore It

There are characters of all shapes and sizes on the show, and their characteristics matter. Tyrion is a dwarf, and this is not ignored. (In contrast, Dinklage portrays a US Senator in the latest X-Men film, and his size is never addressed.) People treat him in a specific way because of his height, and some people consider him a monster, and his identity and personality are heavily influenced by it. – Cardona

 

9. Mythical Creatures and Animals

 

 

dragon

 

The dragons, dire wolves, mammoths, giants, and white-walkers all appearing at some point tend to frighten and intrigue us. The white-walkers are especially important in terms of the show’s popularity, as they provide thrills for the zombie lovers among us.

 

10. The Dialogues

 

hound

 

The huge spectrum of accents, prosodies, and idiosyncrasies seen in GoT makes it more believable and diverse. For example, Tyrion often delights us with his wonderful anecdotes, each one executed perfectly and poetically. Bronn consistently amuses us with his questionable one-liners. On the contrary, The Hound speaks bluntly and with force, aggressively spewing expletives at women and children without so much as a blink. Some even say he’s quite succinct.

A Lannister always pays his debts- Tyrion Lannister

Game of Thrones is a lot deeper than swords and fiction. It’s a perfect juxtaposition of love and war. It’s a world of fiction which most of the viewers wish to teleport to.

Manipulate me, oh Game of Thrones! I shall gladly be hooked onto you forever.
