Mainly pointless

Warning: Spoilers
I'm a huge fan of the show and have enjoyed the insider episodes documenting the production of each episode but this documentary (and I use that term lightly) was mainly a disjointed, badly edited home video. Yes we get to see behind the scenes sequences, rehearsals, make up applications and prop shop footage which is all good Fodor for a making of show but this overly long waste of my time was focused on foul mouth location manager full of her own self importance, a childlike makeup artist making phone calls to her daughter, a directors assistant pandering to a stubborn oaf and pointless repetition. A set dresser dealing with snow was interesting the first time we saw him, but by the third, I was thinking I'm bored of this guy now. His job is important but this show could have shown more people of been cut down to a half hour or 45 min special rather than the stretched out monotonous almost 2 hrs. Part of this shows charm is one of the stark soldier extras his comedic persona was a saving grace but again, don't show too much of him, there were other people there, seems the production team of this show were not wanted and only got the chance to speak to about 6 people and no offence to them, they are not as important as they think they are.
