Martin write really compelling political drama. The books were fantastic. HBO has done an exceptional job with the cinematography. If you can look at it through a secular lens, it’s quality material. And remember, this is HBO. If this was on broadcast TV, I’d have a problem with it, but people choose to pay to watch this stuff. If you don’t like it, don’t pay for it.

I suppose if you become so inured to violence, you can be one of the main waterers of the Tree of Liberty. :)
It's pretty much a foregone conclusion that the violence is purposely gratuitous. The rest of the article puts it in perspective.

Yes, the nudity is way over the top. I have no doubt that they look for moments in which to sneak it in. But, it has a great cast, and the locations and sets are remarkable. Looks much more like an A-list movie than a cable series. Still, it is dark and violent, and not for everyone.
