Tyrion is so well played, I can't believe it.

He's like a half-man House MD, but maybe that's just the accent, and my favourite character in the books as well.

So much awesomeness cannot be contained in 1 hour episodes T_T. Things just happened this episode and I can see how if you haven't read the books, there can be alot of confusion or questions like the part on Dragonstone where the guy slips something into the drink. Guess its the nature of beast.

I feel like Melisandre and Stannis were spot on in the casting, bravo. I can only hope the rest of the new characters are up to snuff as well.

The Red Priestess is also insanely hot.

Talking about good casting, I particularly like Ser Jorah Mormont.
He deserves more screen time for sure; we need 90 minute episode.

Definitely one of my new favorite characters. I haven't read the books but my logic is that if the books are 10x times better, I should watch the show first and then read the books so I don't ruin the show for myself. P Plus I wouldn't have anything to do on Sunday nights!

Stephen Dillane has always been an awesome actor, depending on this season, I still think his best performance is as Thomas Jefferson.

Thought the pacing of the episode was too quick and I fear a lot of the more subtle plot elements are going to go way over some peoples' head if they haven't read the books beforehand.

Can you discuss what you're talking about without spoiling? I don't think I missed anything nor did it feel improperly paced but since I haven't read the books maybe there is something I missed?


One example to use is I thought the Stannis/Melisandre scene covered too much too quickly. There were basically three parts to that scene of great importance:

1) Stannis and his connection to Melisandre (did they even call her name in the episode?) and the Lord of Light
2) Stannis writing his letter explaining the incest between Cersei and Jaime and the illegitimacy of their children as well as his claim to the throne
3) Melisandre drinking the poisoned cup handed to her by the Maester of Dragonstone

Not only did I feel all three of these shouldn't have been in the same scene but then in the next few scenes EVERYONE apparently knows of the letter Stannis sent that happened only a few minutes prior on screen time.


I haven't read the books, but that scene didn't feel rushed and didn't seem like they should have been separated. Only thing I'm unsure of his relationship with that priestess, but from what I saw it seems she's been manipulating him to the point where she had him change their religion, to whatever this Lord of Light is.

I'll agree the passage of time was a bit weird (it was dark both when he sent them out and when Rob knew, so it could have been later that night/next night), but when the guy says "We're going to send this information to everyone", it's safe to assume almost anyone could know after that point.

I wonder how many 'slap takes' the kid who plays Joffery has had to go through for these seasons so far >.<.

Man, all the characters seem to have some purpose or motive for the way they are, and I don't really view anyone as a complete bad guy, but joffrey was just made for the sole purpose of being hated.

Davos' character seems kinda quieter than I thought. Even though he is low key in the series I thought he'd be a bit more of a screen presence. But it's only been 1 ep so meh.

I dindt realize how excited I was until the title sequence started. Then all the excitement just rushed at me.

DID YOU FUCKING SEE GREY WIND? FD;jlasdfjaljdf;ladfjasdfupoufi!
So awesome!

I hope the wolves are shown more this season, they're so fucking cool. I mean, do show-watchers even know the wolves names?
I'm pretty sure all of them (except maybe Bran's) have been named by now.
Also, that dragon was cool.
And everything else.
It was all cool.
God this show is awesome.

The kid who plays Joffrey might just be the most spot-on casting in the entire series.

Didn't like Carice, but maybe that is because I keep hearing her Dutch accent cut through the dialogue (on words like Fear).

Davos didn't get enough screentime for me to make up my mind, but Stannis was awesome for what little time he got.
