I thought I would love that show, but was extremely disappointed with the first season and haven't watched much since. I didn't find much substance there are all. Without the sex and violence, that show would not be popular. People who don't like fantasy watch that show – because of the sex and violence. Take it away and the show wouldn't be popular. this summarizes my feelings on the show almost perfectly:
"GoT, on the other hand, has 5 minute-long lesbian sex scenes that serve absolutely no purpose in any way shape or form but to make teenagers horny. And yes, its violence is ridiculous as well. There is no purpose in the bluest of blue hells served by watching an animal get skinned alive for 5 minutes. Nothing. And all the storytelling on the show, all the plotlines pretty much come down to "let's find new shocking ways in which character A can backstab character B in the back." That's it. It's empty and shallow."
Neither one bothers me in and of itself, but I do have limits. I love a good horror movie, but excessive gore and sexual stuff is a turnoff. I don't know why people enjoy watching that.
