It seems like it was poorly handled but character development is important. Most of season littlefinger was shows to be a good duy and a friend of the starks, yet the brother scene of this episode shows that underneath all that he is just as heartless as joffrey. He will use people any way he can to further himself. Additionaly it reinforced the killing of the baby which ties into the whole Lannister storyline about how joffrey is out of control and turning the people against him. It might seem like a time waste and indeed there might not be enough time in 10 episodes but its these little things that flush out the world and give it life. | ||

Of course I wouldn't complain about all of this if i didn't know how much stuff was happening in the books and that this season wasn't planned to only have 10 episodes.Every minute of this amazing series is precious, no need skip/shorten important events and replace them with mentioned earlier stuff. | ||

They should make a 20 episodes series so that they didnt have to rush with the storyline. And the sex scenes are fine. | ||

That and it would be insanely difficult to maintain high drama if half the episodes were spent walking around meeting largely unimportant people. Or internal monologues and everything else that takes up "book time" but doesn't translate well to "screen time". Wouldn't mind if they extended it slightly though, but they probably couldn't maintain the quality with anymore than 12 or 13 episodes in a season. | ||

Since HBO is a subscription channel, it would be to their advantage to extend the season, since it's pretty well viewed and that would cause viewers to keep their subscriptions longer. They should be trying to balance keeping it long and keeping the audience coming back for more. I agree that not all book content would be good show content, but I don't feel like 10 episodes does ACoK justice. | ||
