In summary, a TV series is being aired in Norway that is not easily accessible. The conversation participants have mixed opinions, with one person enjoying the books and others recommending it strongly. The main speaker has not watched it yet, but is interested in the fantasy elements. The conversation then takes a turn towards misdirected aggression and personal preferences in TV series.

In Norway, they are sending this series on a TV channel nobody has access to (at least, I don't)

Am I missing anything? (I quite liked the books)

Everyone that I know said "WATCH IT OR DIE!"

I haven't watched it yet, but it sounds good.

At first, I didn't pay much attention to it. Later, I saw few episodes. I am a fan of fantasy so as soon as I saw some non-cheesy magic I liked it a bit. So far, it's ok. I don't think is that great, but then again I don't even like True Blood. I am more of a Sitcom series follower.
