![This will make you hate D&D even more! [Game of Thrones SPOILERS!]](/img/1.gif)
who the hell said GoT only gets good later on? it's amazing from the start
if anything it gets worse later on
It's quite the opposite
Well everyone says season 1 is a great setup season. The rest of the seasons are where the action is.
Actually, S1 is my second favorite after 4, it's fking amazing
I just finished season 1 and dear God I hope it gets better
3:35 - I hear you man. Ed, Eddard, Ned. That's one character with 3 different first names.
I legitemately thought that Eddard and Ned were two different characters at first.
Heh, ever read Crime and Punishment? Those Russian names will make your head spin.
Never had a nickname or two?
notyourdad.
Oh man, for sure. Dostoyevsky is one of my favorites. Happens in Asian cultures as well.
Took me a long time but reading the books kinda helped. New characters are a breeze in the second season cuz you become a veteran in memorizing names over time.
Turbo Virgin, House of Clan Weeb, m'lady

"You have to watch like 200 episodes before it really gets good" - every One Piece fan
Kalder Games gonna sound like a weeb, but literally nobody is saying that. almost all of them say ”watch/read till arlong park, if you dont like it by then then you can drop it”. which is to episode 44.
@@Palmen1990 Few years back I was a fucking naruto weeb, and I got into really turbo virgin anime arguments with other weebs.
And I've had a lot of people defending one piece like "it gets good on episode two hundred whatever". One fucking asshole even got so far as to say that you can't say anything if you didn't watch until episode 350, cause that's when it gets really awesome.
Still, 44 episodes to get into a show isn't wirth it at all. If a show doesn't catch your eye on it's first/second episode you shouldn't watch it.
@Nazzy Gaming of course, and that's totally fine. Personally I liked HxH, and I liked FMAB in the beginning, though I got bored later on and stopped watching. But forcing yourself to keep watching something you don't enjoy because "it'll get good" is not worth it.
@Nazzy Gaming If you ain't hooked by the third episode you really shouldn't be watching any show. Not just anime
@@YhurHurt I never claimed that one piece was a good show or anything. I am just saying that the person I was replying to is lying.
MY ONE HUGE TIP FOR GAME OF THRONES:
Watch all the episodes with Closed Captioning/Subtitles. Helps keep track of characters, their names, and overall a better understand of GoT as a whole.
Austin Amend Lyf Hax
I do this for every single show i watch... Not really a tip but common sense
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouse Well obviously, but it's even more important in a show like GoT, especially with all the names and titles
I wouldn't, as it ruins the thematic pacing of certain characters. What I would suggest is to read a character list and check their pictures and where they're from. Also, it just comes with time
If you aren't US/UK/Kangaroo Island native... Perhaps.. English is my 3'rd language and I have no problem remembering all major characters. Knowing how to write a word in high valyrian or dothraki is unnecessary to enjoy the show.
Season 1-4 are the best seasons imo.
Season 1 is insanely impressing when you consider the budget it had. My dad used to watch GoT with like an entire lexicon with all the names etc so he could remember whos who and such.
i just watched 1-6 and i really enjoyed 5/6 too. ramsay bolton was a terrifying villain with a satisfying death. really good development for sansa and arya. the battle of the basterds/ winds of winter are two of the best season finale episodes i’ve ever seen. my opinion tho
“Dad did you remember my birthday.”
“Not now child I’m trying to remember the little boy was the hound killed in episode 1.”
“He was a minor character though dad.”
Then it starts going majorly off book and it's all downhill.
@@judeconnor-macintyre9874that’s what happens when you over take the source material…wish they just put it on hiatus until there was more to work with.
All 6 seasons we're amazing, sad that there was no season 7 and 8 :(
Season 7 was good in my opinion, except for episode 6 that was terrible. Season 8 was pretty disappointing though
@@tristanlanphere7736season 7 had those good moments everyone was waiting for,but the writing and story was dogshit
@@tristanlanphere7736 whatch supercut delight on sez 7, you will see why its actually bad
Season 5, 6, 7 and 8 were ass
@@antihmota4625 season 5 was awesome, an 6 was pretty good too
I think I’ll remember a name like *Turbo Virgin House of Clan Weeb*
S.S Bathtub underrated comment
I can get behind a 85%
I like that the whole entire series opens with the white walkers, you don't even get the intro or anything, just the lingering sense of the white walkers letting you know that they are the true enemy and man is tainted.
That was a terrible explanation, not worth being in this high-class moist chat
lol taint
@@nathancolas2152 The entire series opens with the white walkers, the true enemy. It's the only episode where it doesn't instantly pan to the intro. That is a serious illusion to the main threat.
Yeah yeah, we've seen the newest matpat film theory video
@@masinmorswin8578 Mat pat has a video? I don't normally watch him
Season 1 and 2 had amazing writing and dialogue but no amazing battles
Season 7 had amazing battles but had poor writing and dialogue
poor by game of thrones standards you mean? like it still has better writing than most shows lmao
*seasons 3 through 7. Immediate drop off in realistic dialogue and/or intelligent writing after S2. Hit or miss by-episode for 3 and 4, then just.. bleh. season 5 is an absolute chore to get through. 6 & 7 are more exciting than 5, but overall became like a tween fan-fiction at this point.
@@napdragon2499 that is a terrible measure to use since 95% of tv is trash in the current year
@@napdragon2499 Ah yes, that shitty TV show Netflix. I heard it's supposed to be really bad.
@@napdragon2499 Yeah, I fucking know what you meant. First off it way a bad generalisation and then you even mentioned a Netflix series as one of the good shows. Nice one.
TURBOVIRGIN, HOUSE OF CLAN WEEB.
To be fair, those battles in the show are actually mostly skipped over in the books too. Since there is no POV characters present for a lot of the skirmishes between Tywin and Robb.
I mean seeing Jaime Lannister cut a swathe thought the northman after realizing he was lost if he didn't kill robb wouldve been awesome
No even in the books you don't "see" his capture. It builds a better image of how intimidating the young Stark is with his dire wolf and army.
That's kinda bs xd, in books it shows how insanely good Jaime is, he just outsmarted him strategically
Jackson stood his ground and defended something, wow what a time to live in
You can’t help but feel so sorry for Charlie who was just blissfully unaware at this time how much GOT would sink😂😂 poor guy was like a kid in a candy store, he couldn’t get enough of it
About the bad fighting, wait till you see The Battle of the Bastards. Best fighting scene on screen ever.
But as the show surpasses the books you can feel how the writing isn't as good and some characters almost disappear.
You have to watch like 200 episodes before it really gets good
I'm yet to read the books but Varys and Tyrion used to be such good characters until a couple of seasons ago.
A boy who is deceptively thick yeah Varys is even better in the books because he actually has a goal, namely to crown Aegon VI as the King of Westeros, they ripped that goal away from him in the show for whatever reason; in the books everything he did was pretty much for that singular goal of placing Aegon VI or “Young Griff” on the Iron Throne.
Mountain vs the viper was my favorite fight scene
Papy Frank I get the one piece joke but really you only need to watch the first season. If you don’t like it initially it’s understandable but the main point of season one is setup and slight development. If you don’t like the second season it’s understandable but as with most things it gets better the more you watch it. The continually developing plot threads and character arcs are second to almost none. I struggle to name a love action character with as good of development as Jon Snow, even Djora(Jora?) has amazing character development and he would be considered a secondary character
Season 1-6 is a masterpiece. lets not talk about season 7 and 8
S7 isn’t too bad
Seaons 1 to 4 you mean
5 and 6 are definitely not masterpieces, there is a ton of dumb writing thanks to D&D running out of material from GRRM, and it just gets worse and worse as the series goes on. Compared to 7 and 8, 5 and 6 are infinitely better, but only 1-4 are true 10/10 seasons.
Their fights are supposed to realistic to be fair, it wasn’t like they were ninjas back in the day along with supreme reflexes
@@THEPELADOMASTER it's realistic sword fighting but that doesn't mean it's good or practical. And they spin a lot, I mean have you seen Arya fight? Honestly it has the worst choreography I've seen in a mainstream tv show. Not saying it's a bad show, but the choreography is really bad most of the time. The only good choreography tbh is younger Ed Stark's group fight at the tower and the Battle of the Bastards.
@@yoursexualizedgrandparents6929 we're talking about season 1 here.
The part where arya fights is already not in the books, therefore was awfully made by the two asshats that don't know what they're doing. They ran out of book material and the show quickly dropped quality. You can see that since season 4
@@THEPELADOMASTER If a fight is realistic, there's not going to be any "anime shit" in it to begin with.
The fights are suspenseful, probably, but simply not as realistic as you might think. Actual HEMA fighters use cunning as well as brute strength. If a fighter blocks a sword and stands still doing nothing, he will be punished for it. That's realism.
I also believe you can have suspenseful combat while being realistic, for the most part. That said, this stuff doesn't really take away from the season at all.
@@RedFloyd469 I mean sword duels don't really last long, so the suspense isn't as much as if you draw it out a bit. Realistic isn't the word I should've used, more like grounded. As in, there's no super fantastic shit
@@yoursexualizedgrandparents6929 "The only good choreography tbh is young Ed Stark's group fight"
Oh you mean THE MOST UNREALISTIC FIGHT IN THE ENTIRE SERIES?
The fact that you think that's the best fight in the show, tells me I shouldn't take your word for what is and isn't a good fight scene.
I love the idea of briefly listing the top episodes. I wouldn't want a moist meter on each episode, but highlighting the good ones is a nice touch to the season reviews. Looking forward to the next 6.
Oh boy Charlie! Youre in for something special. Very pleased to see you finally getting around to watching this show and enjoying it with the rest of us. Cant wait to see your reviews for Season 3,4, and 6 in particular
Just finished Season 1 for the first time and I was blown away. I know it has barely scratched the surface of the show but now i realize why everyone loves it so much.
I think I might start watching this show, as soon as I finish watching a moist meter on LEGO Star Wars the complete saga

you forgot again we talked about this remember twitch.tv/moistcr1tikal you have missed two now alot of work needed
Damn this made my year, can't wait to hear your guys thoughts on the rest of show! Glad you gave it a chance!
Awesome, so glad you guys are doing this. Thank you so much! Scores so accurate, just wish you could go into more detail on what specific things you liked from each episode. I understand why though, maybe sometime after you finish this series.^^
I'm glad he's going to do it season by season but what awaits him from season 5 onwards...
Oof, hes going to be mad
my routine is now watching your moist meter review after I personally finish each season and it just adds to the experience honestly
two years later, i'm on the same journey as you. cheers!
Two years later, I’m beginning the same journey too 😅
In regards to the multitude of names they throw at you, I empathize immensely. To be fair I have the same issue with books and often aren't fully aware of who's who until the second reading. For GoT I found it useful to have the dvd insert in front of me that lists all the names organized by house with accompanying portraits.
Just watched a two-minute ad. Doing it for a good cause, doing it for Charlie.
It helps with multiple viewings to remember the characters name. It is based on a book series so that left out a lot which is fine.
I highly recommend rewatching season 1 after a few seasons in when you actually know the names. It's insane how much better season 1 is when you aren't spending the entire time trying to remember names.
I have been stuck on the first episode of season two for a year and now i need to keep up with my boy charlie
he's been uploading so much lately omg this is great
How do you make such well thought out jokes on the spot like that? You impress me every time.
This same thing happened to me .
I watched the 1st season but didn't really get into it.
But me and my friend watched whole series upto season 7s end a few months ago for the hype of season 8 .it is indeed really great show and we both loved it
This make me so fucking excited because I know how the show just gets better and better as character progression and budget increases and everything I can’t wait for those moist meters!
Legit just finished season 1 today this couldn’t have come at a better time
I remember my friend always talked about GoT and even showed me some scenes and I was like “ehhhh” when only season one and two were out. Then I had a nice winter vacation, and my older brother happened to have them on DVD, and we binged them together. I also remember having no idea why I didn’t like the show but was hooked immediately. Watching the show every Sunday night was quite honestly the most anticipated and highlighted night of the week. Until season 8. We don’t speak of season 8.
There's no season 8 or 7

I just started watching the first season, for the first time myself. And I'm so glad I did. I will be watching these as I catch up with them. But I'm going to be way behind you quickly, as I'm watching with my gf in between movies and other shows. Thanks for this tho! I didn't know I needed more Moist Meter!
Cant wait to see more of your reviews from the show
3:36 this is a complaint? I absolutely love this aspect of the show
You should watch Vikings, very well directed, written, and acted (sometimes it's not so good but I enjoy the little slips kind of adds to the show in my opinion).
This has convinced me to catch back up on GoT since I haven't watched since season 4.
I have been waiting for this moment my entire life! Even though I've dreamt of this scenario, it still made me shutter at the moist score!
Genesis 4:27 Then Cr1TiKaL said, "Let there be 1993 lighting.". And lt was so. And he saw that lt was very good.
The comments are dark and full of terror.
Stay away from comments unless you're wanting to be spoiled.
I'm with you. I had never watched one episode until a week ago and have binged every season. If people bang on about something i'm not to fussed to watch it. It does take time to get into it because of the amount of characters but that's why its good. They get built up and developed over time with the story. Im glad I came round what is it 8 yrs later. I'm so shocked every time you see a new character you recognize them (a lot of English tv ppl ) Love it!!
I just finished season one very recently as well and I completely agree with everything you said, especially the swordplay. I really hope it gets better
You can’t go back in the past to see how accurate the depiction is cause *it’s a fantasy* 😑
Don’t worry if your overwhelmed by number of characters they fix that in later seasons lol EDIT: Also pay attention to the intros it changes based on what’s currently happening in the show!!
I'm excited to see your take on each season. Maybe for us viewers you could provide a quick snippet or synopsis to remind us of what happened in the season you're reviewing -- it's pretty easy to get seasons jumbled up in my brain
Looking back the quiet scenes really stand out. The Robert & Cercei scene E5 discussing their marriage is absolutely superb.
My Gf and I just started doing the same!! So glad you're moist metering it
Yu Gi Oh season 0 on the Moist Meter.
Looking forward to the rest of this series
Charlie 100% correct that game of thrones happened in the past. One time Pycelle said “not on this good green earth”
the first season of game of thrones is basically just exposition tbh.
You didn’t endure the suffering of waiting for 2 damn years. And all we got this episode was reunions :’^)
Had the same experience. Watched it once didn’t care for it, but went back and watched it again and loved it.
Season 1-4 is some of the best television I’ve seen
Moist meter on Avatar, the last airbender.
Make it happen you stud
game of thrones, definitely the most accurate of all historical period pieces lmfao
I just got caught up after never watching the show until a couple months ago. Best site ever produced
I'm glad you like GOT so much Charlie. I also watched an episode of the first season a long time ago, and it never caught my interest. But I gave it another chance, and binged all 7 seasons in the span of like, 2 or 3 months 👌 Definitely one of my favorite shows of all time now, alongside Breaking Bad and Westworld
Love how everyone, even if they hate the show, compliments the music by Ramin Djawadi. He really did an excellent job with the scoring throughout the series. Look forward to hearing the themes he’s done for House of the Dragon
Witcher has a bigger budget than GoT. Just imagine.
And Justice League had a bigger budget than both of them combined. What it comes down to is the application..
Really good point about characters telling stories about the past in real time.
this makes me wanna go back and watch it over again
Seasons 1-4 are amazing, 5-6 okay, while 7 is written by 10 year olds. Hopefully Season 8 turns out better.
1-4 are god tier
5 is okay
6 is amazing
7 is meh
its only getting worse :[
Narrator: it didn't.
Season 8 is absolute dogshit
It's so funny to read this comment right now
Game of Thrones: it takes 80 episodes to get Into

I still liked Twin Peaks more though.. what can I say?? People over hyped the piss out of GOT for me😐😐

I really appreciate the shit out of the moist meter reviews. I look to the analysis of pop culture films, shows, etc. With more merit than IMBD or Rotten Tomatoes in a lot of cases. I wouldn't say it influences my take on most pieces that are reviewed, but I almost 100% of the time agree and when I don't I still appreciate the angle you guys are coming from. Much love, such respect ✊🏼✊🏼

I miss seasons 1-4 when the writing was 10/10. Season 5 is probably a 8/10 and 6 is a 9/10 but season 7 was like a 6.5/10, even though it was still entertaining
Yeah, my only hope for this season is that the show is going to end with the ending that R.R Martin envisioned.
J.Fragoso Same, pretty sure they’re going off of an outline they’ve had since the beginning, so hopefully the story will be fairly top notch. Episode 1 of S8 seemed similar to the S7 episodes, so I’m a little skeptical though, but S6 proved that they can make good story without a book reference.
It really dropped off at season 7
@@kothgames yeah but keep in mind that season 7 and 8 are written without any adaptation to the books cause george can't end the fucking series...only maybe with some guidance regarding the author's envisioned finale but that's it

Late for the party mate
If you think the music is good now, just wait until episode 6x10. One of the best scenes in television history, largely in part due to the music.
I was the same the first time around, I was so confused with all of the characters and gave up. Read all of the books then went back. So glad I did.
Watch this video on 0.25 speed. It's invigorating.
Just finished season 1 again as well. I plan to be caught up by the finale so when it releases I’ll have just finished the episode before it.
Just as I was thinking about watching season 1 .... thank you
