Is this show good? A friend keeps urging me to watch it and knows I'd like it. I'm probably going to if I ever find a time when I am not interrupted and can sit still for an hour without having to fidget over something.

Sorry, I've never seen it. I think it comes on a cable channel I don't get.

Back in my Society for Creative Anachronism days, I probably would have loved it. Not so much now. I never was much of a fan of gratuitous sex and violence. Maybe that's why I'm a Trekkie.

It's a blunt and gritty look at King-making, political intrigue and plots combined with sexual themes and OTT violence (horse decapitation with one swing of a sword) Later on there is also a touch of fantasy and magics thrown in.
It is honestly for me one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. It's well balanced between light hearted humor mixed with some pretty nasty folk. The casting is well thought out and the actual presentation visually, both CGI and real film is excellent. The story also develops nicely and although becomes slightly complicated, is still easy to follow and understand providing you keep up with it.
To sum up I recommend this show highly.
