So, I've seen lots of reviews where the main point is that the children of the royals are being viciously attacked in this caricature. I think it's important to remember that this is a cartoon, a satire and yes, completely overblown in its' portrayals. Like most things offensive, it's only bad if it's not actually funny and this show sometimes falls into that category. I try to put myself into the head of a royal watching the show and I feel like it's such an exaggeration that it's not really offensive BUT it's also not as funny as I think they are trying for. There were some poignant and even moving moments with Alan Cummings character mourning his.wife, mixed in with his comedic relationship with Prince George. BTW, I don't interpret this as an attack on the children because they are portrayed more or less as adults. It's kind of funny seeing the other kids in George's class react to him winning everything undeservedly..(and wondering if that's the way it really is).
One thing I do think about is that Sophie Turner and Iwan Rowen are young and now very famous actors (and of course, Orlando Bloom/Alan Cummings were famous even before GoT), so there is a good chance that they would wind up mingling with the Royal Family at some point in the future...hmmm that would be deliciously awkward now wouldn't it?
