Is anyone watching this show besides me and daddyfatsax?

The war is going to epic. The Lannisters are making enemies like Lebron after The Decision

I bet eventually the Stark army teams up with Daenerys and Khal Drogo and his massive horse army and takes down the Lannisters. The enemy of your enemy is a friend after all.

Wish I could say I am. However, I 100000% will be watching it after it's done on DVD/Blu Ray. I don't have HBO, and refuse to watch such an epic show on my computer.

There are a lot of places you can watch it in super clear quality on the internet.

Yeah, I get that. I'm just saying I'd rather watch it in comfort on a 50" flatscreen in HD/Blu Ray with Surround Sound; rather than a 15" computer screen sitting on my lap without Surround Sound.

Yea I suppose. The first season only has 2 more episodes anyways.

Every Monday morning when I drive by Barnes and Noble on the way to work I think about buying the books so I don't have to wait to find out what comes next!

Arya's "dancing" teacher was the best character. beating ass with a wooden sword, doing work. He should have escaped with her.

Why didn't he just pick up a real sword and finish off that last knight

Because the insinuation was that he died. tsk tsk

Exactly what I was wondering. Apparently they had no more use for the guy...They might run out of likable characters.

OH, how could I forget Drogo doing work on that rape-happy soldier of his? Drogo is a beast. I can't wait to see him destroy people in a war. Tears people's throats out? My man...

As good as GoT is, the swordfighting scenes are a bit underwhelming. They make me laugh sometimes actually. The show must not have that high of a budget. The actors should be training like Russell Crowe for Gladiator

I'd like to see you wield a sword against Drago...

No the Drogo fight was actually good. I'm talking about for instance when the dance instructor fought those knights and when Ned Stark fought Jamie Lannister. Both of those fights were weak as hell.

Can't say I saw that coming. Killing off the main character not even at the end of the first season

They are probably my favorite series ever... much moreso than the Lord of the Rings trilogy. (I still love The Hobbit though, ya just can't beat that.)
