I can't wait for the development of Jaimes character through the 2/3/4th series/books. He goes from being one of my most hated characters to my most liked.

They casted Robb and Jon to be way too old. They are 14 in the book. They look like they are in their 20s on the show. They have beards! While they casted them too old, they kept Joffery the same age, 12, as he is in the book. Seems kinda weird too me. | ||

I'm really looking forward to the Jon Snow plotline, I can't wait to see more of the white walkers. + Show Spoiler + I really wanted to like Joffrey too, seemed like he was going to be a sweet innocent white knight 13 yo romance kinda dude at first. All he had to do was not assault some random peasant child. | ||

Yeah, Robb did say Rickon is 6, while he is 3 in the book, but keeping Joffery the same age is weird. At least he looks 12 like you said. Book: Robb/Jon - 14 Sansa - 11 Arya - 9 Bran - 7 Rickon - 3 Show: Robb/Jon - 18? Sansa - 13 Arya - 9? I think she said she was 9 in the first episode Bran - 7? Rickon -6 | ||

Some parts of it made me feel like i was watching the first few minutes of a well scripted porno, but overall, I thought it was excellent. The failed assassination scene was really good. Two episodes in and I already want certain characters to die as soon as possible (as in, i'm into the show- not that they "annoy" me). | ||

But I think the king was described a much more imposing figure. Even though he gained weight, I got the impression that he was supposed to be taller than Eddard Stark. Also, I agree with people about the age difference between the sons. I think the king's son was supposed to be 12, but look just as old as the other boys which annoyed them. | ||
