I fully admit I hard time with season one... there were too many characters and I just didn't care... but I stuck with it and it's one of my favorite shows right now. 
And, after 5 seasons, I finally kinda know who everyone is so I would like to go back and rewatch from the beginning so I can fill in some blanks!

From what I have seen (trailers on television) it does look spectacular

the writing.. the acting... the set design...even the green screen is nearly undetectable.  I do highly recommend it.  I was resistant at first because I thought it was actually set in medieval times....then I found it it was more of a fantasy set outside of any real time and place...that was even more of a turn off.... but once I stopped fighting it and gave it a chance I really was sucked into it.
