Anyone else caught up in Game of Thrones?

I have been hearing about the show for some time now and just 2 weeks ago did I finally decide to watch it. I sat down and binge watched seasons 1-3 in about 3-4 days. The show is simply amazing. After binge watching all 3 seasons i find it hard to sit around for a week waiting for season 4's episodes to roll out. I even bought the Game of Thrones video game on PS3 to fill the void (if you can get past the graphics it has a great story)

I have to say at this point in the series a lot of things look pretty bleak. Most of my favorite characters have been killed off leaving one or two I can truly root for. Last weeks episode brought some comfort and much needed justice to the show, but I crave for more. George RR Martin better finish those last 2 books soon.

Love the show Tiff. Watched the first season been hooked ever since. Yes, there was justice done last week. I still say poisoning was too easy a death. Who do you think did it. I have my theories would like too hear yours.

I'm on a viewing binge atm. Almost done with season 2. Love this show.
Joffrey is a little cunt. Can't wait till he gets his day of reckoning.

I love it. I have read the books and it is great to see it come to life.

you can catch up to past G-O-T shows via On-Demand,... HBO-Go, ...
or you can probably you-tube it.

To be fair he didn't die right away. He suffered unlike Ned who had a quick death. Now I just need the freys and boltons dead along with Stannis and all the lannisters except tyrian. then i'll be content

They need to abandon the Daenerys deification thing as it's getting really boring. I like the unexpected kill-offs. Keeps it fresh. The breach of the wall, whenever it happens should be interesting. And this season, they need more sex!!! Booooo!

Daenerys storyline has a few twists and turns in it. I feel the same way. Out of all the characters she has had the most boring storyline after she got her dragons. We got to see her boobs a few times though, which is nice.

I spent the Easter weekend watching Series 1-3. I bought the box sets and watched them back to back as one long film, which works for me as I do not subscribe to tv channels. I don't know what happens in Series 4 so I have not read the other posts although I know from the press that Joffrey is dead. I was rather hoping Arya would be re-united with Needle and do it as an act of revenge, apparently not.

The series is entertaining, but has a lot of flaws -it relies on some obvious stereotypes -the 'cold North' vesus the 'warm south'. Seven kingdoms -there were seven Kingdoms at one time in old Scotland; people who are brave but a bit thick; people who are clever, people who manipulate, people who are naive and innocent, people who get things done; and so on, in this respect it is sadly too much like a soap opera. I am confused by the religions which are not clear to me, and amused at the way reality is suddenly flipped by magic or dragons or ghosts -which could just be a plot device to fill in a gap or because the writer doesn't know how to end a scene. The sense of a looming apocalypse, a collapse of order, a competing group of religious ideas and leaders of questionable talent and morality does suggest an allegory of our present times, but not a well thought out one.

The sex in Series 1 was almost entirely done in the doggy position which I found most odd, and in a way, not very loving. I have got used to a bun-fest somewhere in the series - but was puzzled at the sight of a limp cock moments after it had dis-engaged from a whore's bottom, not very realistic. The repetitive use of the 'c' word is degrading and it shows.

The sets and scenes are wonderful, from Malta to Northern Ireland; the made-up languages actually work because they sound quite real; the acting varies from good to unmentionable; and it is rare to see so many strong women characters in a drama series, and also some very strong young characters such as Arya and Bran, both of whom are amongst the best finds this show has produced. It is also good to see someone like Peter Dinklage being given a leading role, and doing it so well. It is on a par with having a lead role taken by a transexual -and as this thing looks like it could go on for years, there is yet time for this to happen -and given everything else that has happened in the series, maybe it is a logical next step...

Well Tyrion is also a dwarf in the book series (and one of the best characters therein), so I suppose Peter Dinklage could thank the author George R.R. Martin...because in order to translate the series to television - an actor such as Mr. Dinklage had to be given the part...the only way to have avoided that would have been to fake it movie style using visual effects (like in the Snow White film)...totally unnecessary in this case.

P.S. I'm not 100% sure, but I think showing an erect penis in anything other than a porn movie is probably a no no.
