Such a great show with compelling story telling and top notch acting and exactly what this franchise needed to respark the fire after it went out after the final 2 seasons of game of thrones

The 4K blu-rays look great, when they work... I am returning my copy because my 3rd disc was defective/damaged. As you can see in the photos, this scene got seriously messed up. My 2nd disc also had some skipping issues in the scene after Alicent and Larys have their private dinner on one of my blu-ray players. I believe discs 2 & 3 are BD100 discs which apparently some players do not play well with. They should have just used regular 4K blu-rays for the episodes, and then loaded all the extras (which are very lacking by the way...) on its own disc.
The other issue is that HBO decided to cheap out on the packaging. The steelbook is supposed to be a more premium packaging, but honestly I might just get the regular version after my return clears. In the steelbook, all 4 regular blu-rays are stacked on top of each other on the left side, and on the right side all of the 4K discs are stacked on top of each other, so there is a much higher risk of scratching. Disc 3 with the video issues I experienced in attached pics had a scratch on it before I even played the disc (I made sure to check because distributors like to be cheap and stack discs on each other which makes damage much more likely) I was hoping the scratch would not actually affect playback, but it clearly did.
It sucks because other than a few disc defects, the show looks so much better on disc than it does streaming. Wow, what a difference with the episode "Driftmark" is. It was so dark and flat looking on streaming, and while I still don't love the color grading, it is MUCH clearer on disc due to uncompressed HDR. This is definitely the definitive way to watch the show, it's just a shame HBO decided to try and save a few nickels and cheaped out on the packaging at the expense of the customer.
Also, a slightly minor gripe--the circle part that actually holds the discs is VERY snug. If you purchase a lot of physical media, you know what I'm talking about. Especially the first time taking out a disc, it felt like I was going to snap my disc... I don't understand how manufacturers are still making these death grip holders. CD/DVD/Blu-rays have been around forever. Please fix this issue...

Didn't want to get too excited about this show, after the ending to game of thrones. But to my surprise this show was amazing. Highly recommend.

I exchanged this twice and every time the third disc malfunctioned. Clearly an issue with the master copy when these were made. Also one of the case latches broke off immediately so poor quality case as well. Save your money and get the regular version. And test the discs before the return window closes.

I'm a die-hard GoT fan... Team Targaryen all the way! Though they did Daenerys dirty in the final season, this leap back in time is a fresh, exciting and horrific beginning to a new series. Brings back the greatness we all long for. New dragons are a bonus!

At ifrst it drags a little but once you start seeing the mischief and A#% holery that goes on, you begin to love it. The last episode is the best, makes you wanna see more as game of thronea did. The dragons look great and the scenery is exceptional as to be expected. Season 2 is gonna rock.

HBO has done a good job in making this prequel series to Game of Thrones. After their monstrous bad job on the last season of Game of Thrones; they redeemed themselves by doing the prequel.

Excellent series and can’t wait until season two.
The characters, the action, screenplay, sounds, CGI, etc are all top quality. Total package is worth the price.

I thought Matt Smith totally owned Doctor Who, for which he is richly compensated in gratuitous no0kie in this wonderfully epic prequel to Game of Thrones. Oh, and there're Dragons galore.

The product itself is great. The decision of Best Buy to no longer carry physical forms of media in store are TERRIBLE.

Solid steelbook packaging worth the few extra bucks for the collectible nature of it. The show itself is well made and engaging though I have to say that shortly after watching it I have forgotten what even happened. Must see entertainment for Game of Thrones fans though, scratches that vibe itch.
