    I was a little underwhelmed...and lost
    Not too sound too blonde here, but they have such a long break between shooting..than try to throw in some new characters (who was that red haired chick??)..think they were new....
    so overall, will absolutely continue to watch....but overall a tad disappointed...

    I want to see more dragon girl and her crew ;)

    I hate Joffrey Baratheon with such a passion it's irrational. The dialogue between Cersi and Tyrion had me laughing hysterically. Did anyone else think it was a really well written episode in general? I was ready for next week's episode before the credits were done rolling.

    That's how book 2 starts! A bunch of new characters that aren't explained until later on. Some people who you've only heard of by name, but not seen their faces.

    Don't worry, There will be plenty more with Dany and her dragons!

    I'm so excited! They changed the intro to include more cities/castles. I've been looking forward to this for months! Yay! I still really hate Joffrey. LOL.

    If you had read the books, it is pretty well put together. I am kind of happy that it has been more than a year since I have read the second book, so I have a bit more detachment from the written word and comparing it with what comes on the screen. That being said, I thought the whole thing was awesome. Stannis, Davos, and Melisandre were what I expected. I hoped to see more Arya in the first episode, but I wasn't disappointed. The killing of the *kitten* in Kings Landing was intense, though.

    Ok thanks for the explanation....haven't read the books and I will join the 'I hate Joffrey' fan club and am just fantasizing about his slow painful demise *evil laugh*

    *kitten* slaying was intense.. but did you notice ros is now high society?? as she is an entirely new character.. (not in the books) i wonder what all she will have her hands in..

    he he he... Ros was in the books, but quite briefly. I think the producers thought they just needed another hot redhead in the mix. I'm not complaining too much, unless they make a Ros, Theon, Tyrion love triangle thing happen.

    As long as they hold to the story, small details can be accepted.

    Ros might have been in the second book.. but not in the first and she was in the first season.. so i think she is wild card.. and it makes me wonder what d.b. weiss and George R.R. Martin are cooking up..

    but yes trust me.. im not complaining one bit.. she is all woman and smoking hot..

    what did you think of robs direwolf?

    YES I did, im just at the end of the second book so its all fresh in my mind. my hubby hasnt read the books so was asking a lot of questions, I assured him the new characters would be explained later.

    I understand that it is HBO and they do not have Michael Bay's budget, but I thought the CGI could have been a little better. I think they need to do the best they can to stick with closeups on the direwolves and use them in the Warg dreams. That will make them come across a little better.

    I already find this season is looking good, but I don't know what I'm going to do next season when the "red wedding" ep airs...lol

    They def picked a good person to play a lot of the characters. ( except Cersei, Jaime are supposed to have golden blonde hair and I expected different for Castor, but all in all I think their great and the new ones.)

    they are breaking clash of kings into two seasons.. (ive heard that.. dont quote me.. that or the one with the red wedding may be two years out.. ) and i will lose it as well.. i hate that twist..

    I would prefer that ayways. I find the one downfall to season 1 is the filled the entire first book into the season leaving those who haven't read the books a little out of the loop (especially with learning characters)

    Yeah I actually put the book down for a few weeks after the wedding...lol

    Overall it was awesome! Tyrion taking control at kings landing was nice to see. The direwolves are getting big too When I saw Ghost(Snow's Direwolf) in the season finale, I was worried they wouldn't get very big, obviously not the case.

    They will probably end up cooking the horse meat to feed everyone and the dragons will eat it. Then she will think they only eat horse meat haha

    I thought it was awesome, but, yes, I can see if you didn't read the book, you would be confused about the red woman - I was totally confused when I went from Book 1 to Book 2 because it was like they started with a whole new storyline and it took me a while to get into it, but it gets good. Love Tyrion still ... my favorite character by far. Definitely some interesting twists from the book though so I guess you can't count on it following it completely. I didn't notice Gendry was different than the first season though - someone mentioned that. And Ros being the madam was interesting. I loved that little "discussion" with Littlefinger and Cersei where she tells him "Power is Power." Was not disappointed in the least bit and I find I pay greater attention to the details and characters since I did read the book as well.

    i liked the littlefinger discussion because it didnt happen in the book and actually sets him up for some kind of reason for being so uber badass.. i mean i am calling it now.. he will win the throne.. that or he will be one of the lasts.. he is that damn crafty..

    Oh haha, my guess failed.

    I see.. Well that sucks.. He made me angry whilst watching the show.

    Arya.... What's going on with her??

    And does Joffrey err rape Sansa? Or just humiliate her??
