You have to remember, though, that in the books you don't get a lot of information up front either. Most of the exposition is done through dialogue, and it takes a few chapters to figure out how Robert got the throne, who killed whom, and why X hates Y. I think it feels more confusing on screen because of time constraints and the need to switch between scenes fairly quickly so as to really keep things moving.
