I think A Song Of Ice And Fire sounds a bit too 'magical' for the kind of mainstream show they wanted.

Game the Thrones doesn't really make sense.

People would think it's a musical.

"Game of Thrones" was 100% the most optimal title they could have gone with for the TV adaptation. fucking no one who wasn't already a fan of the books would have watched it if it was called "A Song of Ice and Fire". even "A Game of Thrones" would have been too unwieldy for a TV show title.


They could've called it Planetos so that no one would've watched it and no one would be sad now.

I only read the first book, but the tv show title always bugged me. Should have been ASoIaF with each season being named after each book

People probably would have shortened it to Ice and Fire

imagine if the name of the show was namedropped in an episode.

"We're truly in... a game of thrones!"

*dramatic music plays*

im surprised those other two dimwits didnt think of that considering how much they butchered the later seasons. lol

I've never watched it and I have HBO Max now. Is it worth going through even though the ending is apparently shitty?

Seasons 1-4 absolutely, 100%. Some of the best television ever produced. On par with other top-tier HBO shows like The Sopranos or The Wire.

Youll probably end up watching seasons 5-7 as well, and theres plenty of good content there despite many missteps.

Season 8 is entirely atrocious and I advise skipping it, but by that point youll be invested enough to watch it regardless. Which is fine. Youll have fun watching countless YouTube videos shitting on how bad it is, along with commiserating with fellow fans of the show, afterwards.

P.S. Read A Song of Ice and Fire.
