Completely out of the loop, I randomly stumbled upon a Youtube video talking about it yesterday, and learnt a bit more about it.

Seems like the acting is good, with some very solid performances? Plot seems okay too?

I think I kind of ignored it as GoT finale season still disappoints even year later, but maybe this one is better?

When Miley Adcock is on screen it was great. She played a character that started as a little kid played by one actress, Adcock player the character as a late teen and was later replaced by another actress.

Outside of her time the show is boring as shit and just spins its wheels.

The production values are spectacular, half the characters have all the personality and uniqueness of a cardboard cut out.

The first season was uneven as can be.

The second season had one good episode and the rest was a waste of time.

I have pulled the plug on the show.

Fully agree with all of this. I really struggled to get through the first season, but when they unceremoniously replaced the actors I had just started getting used to—with actors that barely look any older—I threw up my hands and gave up. For some reason I took it personally, since I felt like the two actors they aged up and replaced were the only interesting people in the show. I have absolutely no interest in the story.

Absolutely!
