Samuel L. Jackson narrates a NSFW "Game of Thrones" recap for newbies

Still looking to get into "Game of Thrones" and feeling a bit confused? Samuel L. Jackson is here to help.

To cap off its successful six season, the HBO series enlisted Jackson and his unique -- and profanity-laden -- approach to exposition to recap the main points and major players of the series. And he knows all you really care about are the dragons, but just hold on a second.

The "Pulp Fiction" star tries to go easy on the spoiler while still introducing all the major players, like the Starks -- "nice family, right? Don't get attached. I'm just saying," he offers.

Speaking of spoilers, Jackson does a great job of covering the major plot developments of the first five seasons without revealing anything about character deaths or major surprises, which is a feat considering how much has happened since the first episode.

But even at nearly eight minutes, Jackson doesn't have time to cover everything -- which he readily admits -- but it's definitely enough to whet your appetite. And yes, there are dragons.
