Martin isn't that great of a writer and the TV show is spiraling to stupid levels. I guess it's enjoyable if you like getting immersed in a fantasy world but that's really it. both the show and the books are basically shock-fiction. once you realize that it's all about setting up the next big shock/outrage/emotional reaction then it gets boring fast.
That said, I do enjoy binge-watching seasons usually. The amount of effort put into the filming is pretty epic, I like watching obscenely large-budget productions spend money on fancy effects/battles/costumes/etc.

Book 4 is a pretty plodding book with a bunch of characters are not that interesting. Including the living Go-Pro, Sansa Stark. Girl who's only literary purpose is to observe other, more interesting people.

ya i can see why people think its overrated but i enjoy it anyway.
i think if you look at movies and books through a certain lens, every single one of them is overrated in some way though. all media is subjectively entertaining.

Deathadder Sturdy and reliable. You'd almost think it was german

overrated doesn't mean its bad. Sometimes people act like it's some masterful storytelling but it's just something enjoyable to read. There are a lot of things poorly done in the books.
And people were saying The Witcher was racist for similar reasons as LotR. It's not about when it was written, people just like finding racism in things.
