I was a huge fan of Season One. I found every episode spellbinding. Loved the characters and the setting.

Season Two - was merely OK. I thought the entire season second season felt rushed - as if HBO had given orders o hurry it along. Didn’t care for the ending at all or the vast number of side stories that were left hanging open along the way.
