    Game of Thrones is probably one, with the mix of sex, politics and fantasy that was new for that era.

    The Witcher was probably created based on the success of GoT

      I feel like most fantasy shows now are trying to capture the GOT audience. Everything from “wheel of time”, “witcher”, “shadow and bone” even “rings of power”, etc I don’t think we would have gotten a lot of those if it was not for companies trying to cater to a similar audience but they also all miss the mark imo

        Even GOT missed the mark by the end, if you believe the media sources.

        I watched the first season. It was alright.

        Usually when I consume movies/TV I’m also gaming, so I didn’t get the full impact. My attention was certainly divided.
