The green screen looks terrible and the music is bargain brand


And starting with a narrator is a clear sign that they have dumbed down the show. This is like the Hobbit movies in comparison to the LOTR movies.

Switched off after 20 minutes. It's going nowhere and there are plenty of other shows to see.
Will watch the gore and nudity scenes someday on YT and such.

Yes the music was mediocre. As for the visuals of the show it has cost more than Game of Thrones but doesn't look as good.

I've just watched the 1st episode. Quit liked as I haven't seen GoT and thought the cadence of the music sounded familiar. The music is written by Ramin Djawadi who wrote HBO'S Westworld.. Keeping it in house.

Agreed. Opening narration is a Cliff’s Notes approach to film and video. Even porn eschews voice-over narration. I noticed there were no opening credits nor hallmark title design. The initial music was Muzak. We got the GOT theme with the closing credits—but they added LYRICS—mostly unintelligible—to it!! What kind of moron is making these decisions?

That version always had vocals. Last time they used it was at the end of the finale.
