So if I thought the entirety of season 1 was boring, I'm definitely going to hate season 2?
If you thought season 1 was boring then yes, this isn't the show for you. Season 1 was excellent and had all the pieces I expected from a good Game of Thrones show.
Season 2 is similar to season 1, but it doesn't have a landing. It's not that it doesn't stick the landing, it doesn't have one. Season 3 should be excellent and maybe that's the show you want, but I think the context from season 1 & 2 is what will make it exciting.
I think Season 2's pretty good through Episode 4. It was the last four episodes that, to me, were uneventful and a tad boring.
It's even more boring because it's 8 episodes of filler of them repeating the same scenario over and over again probably due to lack of budget. Basically the Hobbit movie in TV form where what could have been gotten across to the viewer in a few episodes is dragged out throughout the season, and they could have instead visited other families like Winterfel or Tully household if they needed needed talking scenes due to not have the budget to move the story along but needing to deliver 8 episodes of content.
