Good books wasted on Teenage puppylove crap and clichè characters.

I watched episode 1 on HBO to give it a chance... because the pilot is
always suppose to be the one who drags you in. But instead i felt myself
on the verge of either vomiting or rolling my eyes at useless characters.

This show is SO full of clichès.. the gorgeous but rebelous daughter who
has a vision from an ancient tree AND decides to NOT tell her father about it..
A young boy who doens't know how to STFU, and is utterly useless in combat,
runs like a bitch, eventho he has said he would guard a girl.

The angry son with daddy-issues, how much more clichè can you get !?.

The little girl who beats down men twice her size.... riiiiight .

You were definitely not paying attention coz her father is already dead. He was killed by Gnomes. Just one episode isn't enough to judge a series. At least watch five episodes before vomiting venom.

It's hard to take someone's opinion and criticism seriously when it's painfully obvious that you only watched the first pilot episode and then decided to spew all your hatred. Shows improve over time you know much of what you complained about in the pilot was fixed. But in sure you don't know that as you clearly just watched the pilot so you'd have something to bitch about.

I've endured to Episode 4 now and its all one big cliche after another.

Also.... WHAT kind of king has NO GUARDS with him in the throneroom during
times of war and with a shapeshifter demon who just killed alot of ppl !?.

This whole show is full of stupid.
