No, they can't change the name of the series in the middle of it, for a new season, no TV producer, besides you guys apparently, would be so foolhardy.

If they were to name episode 1 of season 2 Clash, then..

I do not get how you people liked this tvshow...
I made the step by watching sotg and it was actually horrible. I thought this would be some awesome medieval fantasy new genre but it is basically a bad bad serial into fake action scenes and fake acting... everyone of my friends laughed at me after I suggested them to check it out only DUE to its imdb rating, what the hell guyz ? am I the only one who thinks this stinks money and nothing else ?

Every critic and every sophisticated online community suggests you need to

a) not listen to your friends
and
b) get new friends

Maybe Camelot is for you. Or Xena.

Yeah, Camelot and Merlin, different TV Shows, both would be really nice for him.

Well for action you got Spartacus. For medieval fantasy you got Legend of the Seeker. Go watch those if you do not like serious shows for thinking people.

Please stick to your cartoon anime's. Real drama of the human kind seems too much for your addle brain to handle. As a poster before me put it, the likes of "jersey shore" seem much more to your standard of 'entertainment'. Feel free to keep your poorly constructed 'posts' to a minimum, wouldn't want to see a fresh mind turned off from a good story because of some ignorant dribble.

Less then a year, season 2 is going to start in April 2012.

10 months is as good as a year.

Why the hell would you read a badly translated book. Go with the original language books, it'll help your english as well while you're at it.
I would never ever dare look at these books in french (my primary language). ewwww. Might have to order them online, cuz 10 months is too damn long. haven't read a real book in a LONG while...

Drama has nothing to do with the medium it is presented in.

Anyway: This show will be famous for what you could call "naked exposition". Talking while some naked person is in the scene XD I hope further seasons will manage to reduce that. Over all very solid stuff and compared to some other first seasons of later classics this was outright brilliant. But there is still a lot of possibility to improve the series. The scale is that of an epic and I wish that they get a bigger budget and that they settle in so the second season will be even better.

How was this finale disappointing? Fuckin epic shit man (sorry for cursing :D)

People rallying under the king of the north, Tyrion gettin the respect of his father and becomin the hand of the king, dragons being born, and the Night's watch goin beyond the wall and to war.
I'm also quite excited to see what role the hound is gonna play as the story goes on.

Damnit it's ridiculous how many epic storylines are goin to come. I'm never gonna make it a year...

first of all, i have to say it is disappointing if you already know what gona happen (read the book + wiki)

King of the North: i mean come on, quote edd: "hes just a boi"... There were no sign that he will be a great commander/king in the series. When you compare him to the Lanister, he is just a simple mind person with his mom there to protect him ( who is not even that smart but doing everything for "family").

Tyrion getting respect from his father is about time... But become hand of the king? Pretty please... who is the king? The kid that he slap thousand times on a youtube video =))... Right, look at how cruel and dumb our current king is... You must love to see Tyrion being tortue by his boss :-/

Dragons being born: yeah, its great but wiki ruined it for me =_=... gota read it b4 i decided to spend time on the series T_T. They are small though... unless they grow up really quick to become a part of the army, i dont see anything happen soon. But the fact that she is immune to fire amazed me...

Night watch going beyond wall make me scared bc i hate zombies =_=... i always minimized my screen when they follow snow point of view >.<

Conclusion: ep9 > all!

First of all, I'm shocked at how well that last episode went over here. That episode sucked, was such a weak ending. If I wasn't feverishly reading thru book 1 and solidified as a fan after episode 9 I don't think I would care about season 2 after that episode.

Maybe they should have taken the chance and saved Ned's beheading for the last epsiode. Particularly because they had nothing else interesting to go off of.

With that said, looking forward to season 2, hopefully they'll write a more interesting climax next season or I can't see HBO, with their track history, keeping this show afloat for another season.


How are the dragons a weak ending? The whole pyre burning, and finding her w/ the dragons was epic (and I was expecting it, even, because I've read the books.)

You clearly haven't been paying attention well enough. Robb has already been shown to be a great strategic leader, Tyrion has been shown to bully Joffrey around (not vice versa, and Tywin specifically told Tyrion to keep the king in check), and how can you think the dragons won't be a pivotal role in the near future, even as small as they are?

Show started out kind of slow but it grew on me. Great story and very good acting.

I can't believe anyone mentioned Camelot in this thread. The acting and editing is so flimsy it just makes me cringe and I stopped watching after a while.

Anyway looking forward to the next season allthough it will be a year away

The story is, by definition of the word, a drama. Have whatever opinion you will, It does not change the meaning of the word.

This last episode was amazing, I was not a fan at the start but the quality kept increasing. Only thing that is really bad in my opinion is the parts with the khalasar ,the acting/casting/makeup was really subpar compared to the other ( exept in the last episode maybe).They never really felt like crazy primitive horsemen in my opinion.
Looking forward to the next season , I will read the books while waiting.
