Thanks. Would you consider this to be a credible list regarding the other 9?

No idea. I'm a sci fi guy; the fact that so many fantasy lists put Game of Thrones ahead of LoTR and Harry Potter blew me away. Then I found out HBO was making it into a series and thought "I need to jump on this."

Game of Thrones the HBO series seems to have had 1 season so far... how was it?

Really good. Pretty faithful to the show and pretty well made to boot. The second series is being made at the minute, it only has one because they've only started it.

Thanks, we need a new TV series to watch. It's been a while since we've embarked upon a new one. Last one was Dexter.

Have you watched The Wire or Breaking Bad? They put Deter to shame really. Dexter's ok and drops off, The Wire has ruined most of the rest of TV for me.

No to both, but I realize that they both need to be on the top of our list of series to watch. Dexter was good but it was hard for it to compete with the series I watched before it...Battlestat Gallactica. -best series ever.

I'm jealous that you get to experience both with fresh eyes.

Lord of the Rings as told in the style of The Sopranos.

That's pretty much Game of Thrones in a nutshell.
