I haven't read the rest of this thread...because I just started watching the first season. I'd heard about it...and several friends insisted I'd love it...but that usually makes me steer clear of actually watching (I always think it won't live up to the hype and I'll be disappointed). But...I've started watching the first season On Demand...and I gotta confess, I've been sucked in! I'm trying to watch all the episodes before the second season starts...hence not reading the rest of the thread. I don't wanna know what happens before I finish watching!

Second season
Great first episode!
Thoughts on new characters (I've read all the books): I like Davos and Stannis- they come off well, or at least as I imagined. Melisandre doesn't seem nearly as commanding and foreboding though. And Craster is much too well groomed. Oh, and the baby dragons (well, dragon, only got to see one) are so cute. I want one!

davos and stannis were well-cast...i'm also iffy on craster. i agree with you jd that melisandre is not nearly as commanding as i thought she'd be.
i didn't think the actor playing jaime really fit his character well in the first season, but he grew on me in the first episode of this season. i liked his portrayal before, it just didn't feel true to the character in the books. i love the exchange between dany and her bloodriders in this episode and jorah as well. it's kind of funny,spoiler for the books/later storylines the whole dany/jorah unrequited love thing in the book bored me half to death, to be honest. but the chemistry between emilia clarke and iain glenn in the first season made me a hardcore dany/jorah shipper. now i'm going to have a huge huge sad when it goes into the unrequited love bit later  tyrion was amazing in the first episode

I thought it was a great first episode. I love the series. Tyrion was great. I love his character. And Peter is a fabo actor!! And I just want to hang Joffrey. Don't spoil it for me... those who have read the story already. Psychopath... that was my first diagnosis.
 I am halfway through the first book. It has been AGES since I have read a fiction book, but... I am not giving up. I am enjoying the "fill in the blanks" aspect of the book. I think this is going to be A GREAT SEASON!!!

Craster, for me, was far too young and hearty. I also wasn't sold on Stannis who I felt needed to be larger but I loved Davos. And Melisandre was perfection.
I adore the Imp. He's the reason I savor that show. He's got heart and isn't afraid to show it. Can't wait for more! |
