Yes, the gruesome violence was certainly one reason. My wife's reaction was, "This is just a "Game of Thrones" wannabe. I'm not watching this!" (We didn't last very long with "Game of Thrones," either, particularly because of the high levels of violence and brutality.)

So, wanting to get along with my wife, we found something else to watch.
