A good show based on a great book series. A good bit was changed from the books which I think is a detriment for anyone who is a fan of the books but won't be noticed if you haven't. The book series had many strong female characters but the show seems to push the girl power to much when there is no need and seems over done. There is nothing wrong with movies or shows doing their own interpretation of the source material but sometimes they miss the mark by to much. I will watch the show once through but I don't see it being a must re-watch.
