Amanda Peet Admits To Hating 'Game Of Thrones' - Co-Creator David Benioff's Wife Thinks It's 'Like Dungeons & Dragons But Real With Real People' [VIDEO]
Amanda Peet's "Game Of Thrones" first impression wasn't very good, according to the actress herself.
Peet revealed to "CONAN" that when her husband and one of the show's co-creators, David Benioff, pitched the idea to her, she thought it was "silly" and a "terrible idea."
She also compared the show to a game.
"Yes, I thought it was a terrible idea. Terrible. Just silly," she confessed, adding that it was "like 'Dungeons & Dragons' but with real people."
Amanda Peet's "Game Of Thrones" impression drastically changed, however, when she actually started watching the show.
According to the "A Lot Like Love" actress, she is now "obsessed" with the phenomenal HBO series and even refuses to hear any spoilers for next season. She resorts to some drastic measures now that her husband has been putting up storyboards for the next season.
