Game of thrones is now a worldwide sensation and master piece written by George RR Martin. George RR Martin wrote this book around 1996 ( yep 20 years). Before that, he started as a poor boy who sold stories to make a living. He wrote stories which about mystical kingdoms about turtles.
He used to kill those turtles frequently in those stories. Now we know where all the kills in the GOT are coming from.
From my personal experience, I started watching game of thrones back in 2012, when it had two seasons released and then I skipped it for the last 4 years and I had not watched a single episode of it.
So over the weekend and late night I had some catching up to do and felt like watching the GoT from where I left.
The reason why GoT is different from every other serial (I am not comparing it with Indian Televison at all), is that it has some pace on every episode. Firstly, It sells at its multiple plotline. There is no plotline at all, there are just multiple stories being weaved over the course of time and connecting them to each other. The icing on the cake is sudden twists in the plot that brings out the excitement to watch one more episode. GoT keeps the story hanging for long. If you calculate, 6 seasons with 8-10 episodes, thats like more than 60 hours of television and we are still not able to understand whats happening. The story is devised in such a way that it has no end. Its not the inevitable war between good and bad. There are no two warring elements who would clash with each other and there would climactic battle.
So here`s to GOT and many more murders to come.
