I think I expected too much from it. It has this infuriating pace: one step forward and two steps back. So little is resolved during each episode and then, *boom*, lots of stuff goes down way too fast to be very satisfying. Tons of anticipation, minimal payoff. And the writing is so sloppy. It's funny to think that I want a fantasy show to be somewhat believable but, yes, I want the writing to be believable. It can be done (see: BSG Season 1). I'll read the recaps and maybe might rent the DVDs. I don't even feel like rushing out and buying them, which is always a sign that I've lost interest.
