The hit HBO series Game of Thrones has often been criticized for its interpretations of sex, nudity, and sexual assault. Oona Chaplin, who played Talisa on the series, recently told TMZ that if anyone is turning into the fantasy epic just for the nudity might be wasting their time.

I don't think there's such a thing as too much nudity if it serves the narrative, but HBO shows in general have a habit of throwing it in just for the novelty of it. I like staring at naked women as much as any other straight guy, but when I'm trying to get into the epic sweep of a show like GoT, the nudity that they've so obviously thrown in for the hell of it just becomes a giant distraction. If it serves a contextual purpose then it's fine, but as Oona Chaplin ironically suggests, I can watch porn if I'm looking for gratuitous nudity...so why are HBO shows still throwing it in in an apparent attempt to attract some boner views? Or more accurately, I guess, why are people still defending the trend?
If I want Nudity in my Drama Saga , I can easily rewatch Spartacus .
Oona Chaplin is too adorable. How she talks and everything.
Its amazing how we have come full circle back to prudishness. When I was a kid women were screaming about being allowed to "show their bodies" now its all "cover up for respect" and "hide the sex".
