I think he's well cast, given that he's supposed to be playing a weak king and all that. Matt Smith is close to ruining it for me though as I can't stand the guy.
None of the other characters have really stood out so far, which given that they're about halfway through the season now is a bit of a problem.

I did struggle with Matt Smith at first. He looks like he got lost on the way to a Rings of Power casting. Very elven.
But I'm sort of okay with him now. You do make a fair point about the lack of stand out characters, though. I hadn't really thought about it due to the story being so strong as a whole. I would have loved to have seen more of Rhaenys, but that's just because I fucking love Eve Best.
I'm certainly more than satisfied with the series so far, though!
