Two hours ago, I was bawling my eyes out after watching episode 9. Oh Ned:(

I've only read book 1 in the series and I have to read more before next season starts. The show is excellent but the books are better:) They sure did add a "Jerry Springer" spin to the show. They added lotsa smut and vulgarities that weren't in the book. HBO must have wanted it raunchier for their network.

Isn't the cast amazing? Perfectly chosen and the acting is phenomenal!

Awesome just awesome. The whole season. Despite HBO's continued lowest common denominator insistence on using gratuitous nudity and soft core porn to rope in a wider audience. I like skin as much as the next guy but c'mon. This ain't The Sopranos. My gf says The Tudors was even worse in this regard.

Presently reading the episode synopses on wikipedia. Well after I'm done here I will be again! :)

This thread deserves a bump. I'm reading the books now; on the third. The book is always better than the onscreen adaption and I loved that but omg am I impressed and enthralled with A Song Of Ice And Fire. I'm pretty sure they're my favorite series ever. Haven't really been into any books either since, well, the internet. :)
