A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

I'd take a Shield Maiden with an axe over Mike in his prime. ;)
Not if Mike was a veteran Viking warrior beating down enemies like matchsticks - and along comes a 5'2" tiny female wearing tough looking leather who defeats him while doing world class calisthenics in mid air.
 
That was amazing. I will watch that one again sometime. They even used actual cars from that time period in the 80's, they paid attention to detail on most everything.
Actually, no. Pretty unrealistic. Even Russian Tv-series "The Windsors: Last blood" is more realistic:

------------------

Just recall Russian TV-series "The Windsors: The Last Blood".
--------
The pilot begins with a shot of "London. April 21, 1926. The birth of Queen Elizabeth II." Only an experienced eye will notice that London at the beginning of the 20th century was filmed in modern Yoshkar-Ola. We see how the Freemasons replaced the daughter of King George with the daughter of Satan. The wrinkled foundling is played by Liya Akhedzhakova.
Next, we are transported to 1952, 25-year-old Elizabeth ascends the throne, the young queen is already played by Anastasia Zavorotnyuk, her husband, Prince Philip of Edinburgh, is Gosha Kutsenko, and Winston Churchill is Celine (Dukalis, not Dion).
During the course of the series, we learn how Princess Diana, played by Olga Buzova, cheats on Elizabeth's son, Prince Charles, with an Arab sheikh (Mikhail Galustyan).
We are horrified when strikes of dockers and miners are shot by bestial policemen on the orders of the masculine Margaret Thatcher (the amazing role of Sergei Bezrukov).
We are witnessing how England was swallowed up by the drug-addicted punk culture, which found its continuation in the rave orgies of the 80s: Sid Vicious is played by Sergey Lazarev, and Johnny Rotten is played by Vlad Topalov. Depressive suicidal Ian Curtis from Joy Division is a redhead from Ivanushki.
There is a whole series dedicated to the rise and fall of Prodigy: Kate Flint – Boris Moiseev, Leroy Thornhill – Timothy, Liam Howlett – Dima Bilan. In the britpop season, the Gallagher brothers are played by the Zaitsev sisters from Comedy.
The series dedicated to Brexit, pushed by the homosexual Scottish lobby, is directed by Kirill Serebrennikov based on a script by Mikhail Idov.
The last season covers our time already: the agent of the American special services, Meghan Markle, played by Elena Berkova, seduces Prince Harry (Alexey Panin), beating him off from the royal Dalmatians.
The only positive characters in the series are Russian athletes Bashirov and Petrov, who, having arrived to buy sports nutrition and admire the famous bridges, accidentally witness a Satanic cult led by the defector Skripal, sacrificing cats to Queen Elizabeth (the daughter of Satan, as we remember from the first series).

If it's a fantasy series, nothing wrong with ass kicking female warriors.

It just has to be done right. In Game of Thrones both Brianne of Tarth and Arya Stark were done right.
Really? Were you okay with Arya just jumping over a whole cohort of cold bois and killing the Ice King all by her lonesome?

LOL

Brianne was done okay, in a more realistic version, someone like Brianna would be lightening fast, with a rapier or a light sword.

But you know. Stab stab.

They said at the beginning they couldn't beat the Night King by strength, they had to do it by trickery.

Arya as a faceless man was the trickery.

Yeah, I still think it was poor writing.
 




I've watched the first two episodes and my only complaint is that they are too short!

So, after viewing the whole 1st season, I liked it a lot.
Stuck pretty close to the novella's and had a lot of depth.
For you GoT fans--Ser Duncan the Tall was Brianne of Tarth's ancestor..explains a lot~
 
We have watched 3 eps - it is a bit slow. How long are they going to build up to seeing him fight?? C'mon.
