Game of Thrones

Greywind was BIG... which ends my one big gripe from season 1.

Good episode, cant wait to watch next weeks.

I DVR'd it last night. I watched the first few minutes last night during the half time of the Baylor-Stanford Women's BB game last night and I am looking forward to seeing the rest of it. I just want to see the boy king get his this season (if that happens).

The cool thing about Martin's writing is that human nature is both evil and good... heroes become villains... villains become heroes... and no one is safe.

Almost swore off the series when *** was killed (don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen the first season) for this very reason.

Last night's episode seemed a little slow to me, but I think they're just setting up the story lines. The look on the queen's face after she slapped the little jackwagon was priceless. Can't WAIT to see what happens next.

Yea, cant stand that little punk. I loved it in season 1 when the dwarF was smaking him around. Probably one of my favorite scenes. Looking forward to this season. I'm probably going to get the first book.

How many books are there? How far did the first tv season get into the book version?

KING OF THE NORTH!!!!!!

There are currently 5 books out with 2 more to go. Each book is written several years apart.

As for the show verses the books, there are several underlying things going on that the shows can not touch because it would just be too much going on and too much info. However the overall story is very similar to the book.

Season 2 looks like its going to be just as good as season 1!!

[M-2]

Anyone watch it?

Just finished the first season. It was entertaining...I'm looking forward to the second season starting April 1.

We seem to share many similarities in reading and TV preferences, you and I.

We watched the first episode last night and I, too, thought the first show of this season was a little slow, but it's on "Record Series" and we'll be onboard for the duration.

Our son has read all 5 books and eagerly awaits the final two. I need to ask him if that Geoffrey snit lasts much longer...hate to wish for the demise of a 14 year old character, but, dang, he needs killing in this story.

This. Great series and the storyline is following along nicely. Glad to see they are getting it right.

Season 2 .. Is on track now... first few weeks were kind of slow.. Cant wait for the battle at Blackwater..

Love this show!!!

Wife enjoys it....I guess I will buy the DVD box set and watch it. I prefer to watch series that way when I don't get it on the first of it..

Ebay has some great deals, on season 1 box sets.

No netflicks?

Loved season 1. Started reading the books, not normally a genre I'd read but they're so well written. I'm on book 3 now and taking my time. I read the first 2 books in about 20 days. Hubby won't let me tell him what's happened in book 2 and thus far into book 3. After this latest episode aired (The Ghost of Harrenhall) he's asking questions. I was sworn not to reveal anything I'd read thus far. Think he'll start reading the books after the end of season 2. Looking forward to the rest of season 2 and the start of season 3!!
