This sounds accurate when I think about it, maybe I found out why I wasn't interested. The thing is - I don't mind medieval soap operas (to some degree), I really liked The White Queen, The White Princess and The Spanish Princess. But those are based on real characters in actual history, I can forgive them for being boring at times since history is sometimes a bit boring. But for me the selling point and the excitement comes from the fact that this actually happened (well ... sort of). With GoT it felt like I'm watching one of those medieval soap operas but without the excitement of being based on the real thing
