Experience the first season of this visionary HBO series based on the bestselling books by George R.R. Martin. Set in the mythical world of Westeros, 'Game of Thrones' follows the many driven inhabitants who thirst for control of the Iron Throne. But in a land where seasons can last a lifetime, winter is coming...and beyond the Great Wall that protects them, a long-forgotten evil has awakened. In Season One, the story centers on three primary areas: the Stark and the Lannister families, whose designs on controlling the throne threaten a tenuous peace; the dragon princess Daenerys, heir to the former dynasty, who waits just over the Narrow Sea with her malevolent brother Viserys; and the Great Wall--a massive barrier of ice where terrible danger is stirring. The horrors of war, the danger of shifting alliances and the anguish of intra-family rivalries raise the dramatic stakes, matched by the glorious visuals. --Joanne Ostrow, Denver Post So far (judging from the first four episodes), it's living up to our highest expectations. --Matt Roush, Tv Guide Those who make the investment are richly rewarded. There's enough tension, betrayal, treachery, greed and sex, after all, to fill eight seasons of 'Scandal'. --Chuck Barney, San Jose Mercury News Review: This One's A Jewel in the Crown! - I stumbled across this little gem here under my desertcart recommendations. I'd never even heard of this series of books or the fact it was an HBO show. I read the synopsis and all the reviews here about the show and I was very intrigued. I like Sean Bean as an actor, and enjoyed Peter Dinklage from Nip/Tuck, and as everyone raved about his performance in this, I thought I'd check out at least one episode. WOW oh WOW.... This series just blew me away! The storyline was amazing! All the machinations, assignations, intrigue, deliberations, or stunning confessions that go on are incredible. The sets and locations are gorgeous. The theme music is very stirring and the opening credits are creatively done. I can see why each episode runs a cool $6 mil.... I'm afraid I'll run out of superlatives in describing this show. There were many times in watching the series where I was shocked and stunned, like "wow.... Oh my gosh, did that really just happen?".... You think you may know what's going to happen next, and the show surprises you. It plays out like an elaborate and intricate game of chess. I love shows that do that. You may not recogize many of the names, but you'll recognize a lot of the faces. Mark Addy (Roland from A Knight's Tale, Bill Miller in Still Standing) is wonderful as Robert, king of the seven kingdoms. Rightfully on the throne? Some aren't so sure about that. Eddard (Ned) Stark (excellently played by Sean Bean, Boromir from Lord of the Rings) is Lord of Winterfell and Robert's friend. Ned is asked to come to Kings Landing and accept the job of Hand of the King, due to the recent demise of the previous title holder. Some whisper assassination. If that is indeed the case, Ned wants to know why he was killed. Lena Headey (Queen Gorgo in 300) is superb as Robert's wife Cersei Lannister. Talk about a 180 degree character portrayal from her role in 300. She was amazing, I loved to hate her. And no one could have played the role of Cersei's brother Tyrion, "the Imp" better than Peter Dinklage. He almost steals the show with his performance. The actors playing two of Ned's younger children are phenomenal, especially Maise Williams as Lord Stark's spunky and scrappy daughter Arya. This little gal will be a force to be reckoned with in the years to come. She will definately be one to watch. Isaac Hempstead Wright plays Arya's brother Bran to perfection. The actors playing Ned's older children deliver solid performances as well. Even Natalia Tena (Nyphadora Tonks in Harry Potter) delivers an outstanding performance in a minor role as Osha, a criminal turned new house slave at Winterfell. Then of course, there is the ominous and massive Wall. Manned for thousands of years, most have forgotton why they even continue to stand the watch, and where deserting your post still means death. Yet rumors and frightened witnesses swear that monsters and white walkers are beginning to stir, and icy horrors wait beyond the wall. Dragon lore and direwolves are also spoken of. Toss into the mix House Taragaryen across the narrow sea. In exile, Viserys Targaryen desires to take what he feels is his rightful place on the throne in Kings Landing, and sells his sister Daenerys in marriage to the Khal of the fierce and nomadic Dothraki tribe, (think Klingons of the wastelands) so that Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa from Stargate Atlantis) will provide the muscle Viserys needs to get the job done. There are several family dynamics occuring at the same time and it's very involving, so I would refer to IMDB to better understand who was who and where they fit in to the storyline, (thank you IMDB). There is soooooo much more happening than what I've mentioned here, but this review is already getting to be the length of a book itself, so just check it out for yourself. If you are offended by nudity or violence, this may not be the show for you. Game of Thrones hits the ground running right from the opening credits where you see a white walker, and let me tell you, they're creepy. This show grabs you and doesn't let go. It's one hell of a ride. I can't wait for the second season. HBO, you definately have a gem of a winner in this series. During the hiatus, I'll be reading the books. ~ jade ~ Review: Winter is Coming - Lucky me. I had heard about this program a number of times but it is an HBO product, so I wasn't able to see it. My provider here in town is Comcast, and they have an 'On Demand' feature. I clicked it last week, I think Tuesday, and there was a button called 'Watchathons'. All of the shows listed were free until the thirty first of March. I scanned them quickly, not really thinking much about it as I was looking for something else, and there it was. A Game of Thrones. 2 season's worth. I had Tuesday through Sunday to view. What I was searching for forgotten, I saddled up for a long ride in my spare moments after work. I was hooked from the first episode. This series is absolutely incredible and well worthy of the high acclaim it has received. Fastforward to Sunday, and I had viewed all of the first two seasons. (I think Comcast screwed the pooch Sunday night because I was able to see the first episode of season three as well.) What to do after seeing such an epic in such a short period of time? First, I bought the 4 volume set of books. Now, I tried to do this through desertcart, but they were out of stock, so I found a local dealer what had it. I'm now about 300 pages into the first book, and man... The HBO series follows so closely to the book, it's like reliving it in print! Incredible how alive the series makes the characters. The production is epic, with what would seem no expense spared. Vivid and visceral. Intricate and involved. 2 days later, here I was on desertcart buying the DVDs for the first two seasons, and as soon as able, will be buying season three. How could I not? With the books, you get the scope of what the author envisioned, and I'll tell you that that is fantastic as well if you're a reader, but the HBO series is, with little exception, that in the flesh. Uncanny, so far. So now, I await standard shipping and the DVDs from desertcart. I'm anxious to see the extras to broaden what I know about the show and share the truly engrossing experience that has been coming to know this series, and now the books, with my friends and boss. Martin has gained a new reader, and HBO has made a little cash from me, and, being an impatient man, might just get a subscriber so I can see season three 'live'. And then desertcart for the DVDs of THAT season, and so on. Comcast wins, Martin wins, HBO wins, desertcart wins, but I am the ultimate victor for the sheer entertainment and experience I can witness over and over, and share with my friends.

Come on delivery date!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic, dark, funny, and entertaining....a must for any mature fantasy reader *by J***K on May 3, 2012* Well, there are already hundreds of reviews praising this series for all that it entails...the quibbles between the books and the tv episodes are minor at best, and with at least two more seasons on the horizon, one can only wait and hope they do as well as this one. The only issue I've had so far is with the discs themselves...they refuse to remember where the episode left off if, say, I had to turn off the PS3 and go do something else, if I come back to it, it starts all over again from the episode menu. Anyone else have this issue for blu-ray? It could be a PS3 issue I suppose, but one never knows... This is a story, first and foremost. It is not a happy story, or a friendly story, or even a story told from just one character's point of view..it's told from many, and how their lives all intersect and weave together...the choices they make, for good or evil, the people that live or die as a result of those choices, and the maxim that "power corrupts, but absolute power corrupts absolutely" hanging over everyone's head. In one of the special features, George R.R. Martin said something to the effect of seeing the world in shades of grey; a "good" character can have flaws and perform an evil deed or two, and "evil" characters can have shining moments of redemption under certain circumstances. Thus, the characters in the series reflect this, and everyone will be able to identify with at least one character here, regardless of his or her fate. A good story should be able to make you laugh, cry, want more, identify with the characters and situations, and watch repeatedly and possibly learn something new each time...for me, this series does that in spades. It should be mentioned, however, that the MA rating is well-deserved, as this series doesn't shy away from violence and bloodshed, or wanton acts of cruelty, or..and this is probably the biggest thing.."sexposition". Steamy nude scenes mixed with important plot points are scattered throughout the episodes, on top of "normal" sexual discussions, portrayal (and most of it is well into the hard-R rating territory) and natural nudity (male and female), homosexuality, incest, and the fact that some of it revolves around children coming of age (they're younger in the books, so I can only guess a few older actors and actresses were switched in to prevent some major issues). I wouldn't let any kids I had watch it until they were much older, is what I'm saying..for those of us that can handle it, though, the above review stands. Give it a couple of episodes and let it flow...by the end you'll definitely be hooked. ## Frequently Bought Together - Game of Thrones: Season 1 - Game of Thrones: Season 2 - Game of Thrones: Season 3 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/993653-game-of-thrones-season-1](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/993653-game-of-thrones-season-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
