I wish I was still in a place that had HBO, it's already cost me season 2 of Boardwalk Empire...

Pretty ruthless with the bastards there! They definitely know how to get the villains going, I can't stand Joffrey and Circe (I'm sure I'm spelloing those wrong).

You got the former right; the latter is spelled Cersei.

It's a decent start to the year, juggling all this show's locales and characters (actually, they omitted one or two; and the cast only grows from here).

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Lord, I even misspelled "spelling"...

I've dug plenty of little people over the years, David Rappaport, Wee Man, Danny Woodburn, Tony Cox, Verne Troyer, Warwick Davis, Billy Barty, Zelda Rubinstein, Michael Dunn, Gary Coleman, and so on but I think Peter Dinklage as Tyrion might top 'em all.

Good start to the season but there are like 5 or 6 different plot lines going on. It's going to take a little time to see where it all goes. Right now the stuff at Kings Landing, Rob Stark, and Denaryis are what I really enjoy. All the other stories will take a little time to get deeper into.

I guess the only thing I have to offer right now (After just watching season one maybe 2 months ago) is I love how Dinklage showed up almost at the end of the credits, and now that he's won an emmy and is the most popular guy on the show, he's top billing.

Loved it. Nice set up with all the different kings and such. Joffrey is still a prick. Peter dinklage getting first billing and rightfully so. Good to see that they haven't removed the
