Screaming "NO NO NOT LADY NOT LADY SHE IS GOOD STOP THEM DONT LET THEM DO IT PLEASE PLEASE" wasn't sufficient?

Well, as far as my experience with medieval movies and tv shows goes, "pelease" never works..

How do we all feel about Mark Addy's performance as King Robert? I had an interesting conversation with my roomates about this last night, wanted to know everyones thoughts
I got to say I think he is pretty much spot on. I get pretty much the same feeling from him as I did in the books.

Rodrik Cassel, he is Master- At- Arms of Winterfell, basically he trains the lads in combat and holds all the weapons.

He's also the uncle of the black haired guy travelling with Sean Bean. He is the guy with the Scottish accent who hugged Sansa and Arya at the end of ep2. (Jory Cassel). Random fact.

Confused by the question, but George R.R. Martin has always written the books. The episodes have several writers though (GRRM wrote one of them).

i think he meant when he searches google for game of thrones information, he accidently types game of thornes, not thrones

haha nice, lost in translation  he meant to ask if anyone else makes the same typo as he does when googling for "Game of Thrones/Thornes"

Whoosh, right over my head
|
Wait until the Queen of Thorns enters the action (book 2 or 3, can't remember) and then you'll have the perfect typo confusion!!
i don't get why the older daughter (cant remember the name) rather sacrifices her own, innocent wolf instead of telling the truth -.-
And to add to the discussion, I think Sansa's actions are self-explanatory: she just wants to please Joff and Cersei, and she thinks that by lying by omission she'll accompish just that. But she can't forsee the consequences of her acts, and it backfires right in her face. You'd think she'd learn..

Spoliers regarding Jon Snow
+ Show Spoiler +\Here's something that just occured to me, if Jon Snow is indeed the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark, Jon Snow is actually the rightful heir to the seven kingdoms. Curious...

+ Show Spoiler +Would he? Dany is still Aerys' only surviving child with Jon being her nephew. Certainly Rhaegar was first in line for the throne as the prince but with his death wouldn't that pass the crown on to Viserys and then with his death on to Dany?

Look at the parentage section

you should label your spoilers as "future of the books speculation" or something, i knew about it but someone reading your posts who read the books but hasnt figured it out for himself might rage pretty epicly. and its not really 100% confirmed, so talking about it in a matter-of-fact way isnt really fair
