What is Game of Thrones about? Well, it's the story of a wealthy family that lost everything, and the one son (er, daughter...and bastard son) who had no choice but to keep them all together -- Basically, Game of Thrones is Arrested Development if everyone were a little less evil. Both shows have multiple storylines and an abundance of silly names (Bob Loblaw? Tormund Giantsbane?). Still don't see the similarities? Check it out:
There's the misunderstood man who hates his family
The manipulative matriarch with a drinking problem
The stubborn sister
Who has a rough time after she cuts her hair
The coward whose romantic life is tarnished by incest
...Her
(via) and (via)
The man who made a huge mistake...Several huge mistakes
The powerful leader with beautiful hair
The side character with a catchphrase (that's just their own name)
(via) and (via)
The small disabled one with a strong spirit
The brother who doesn't know who he is after his injury
The ambitious outsider who isn't afraid to use their sexuality
...and the magician everyone hates.
