You want him , you can have him. Tell him to take all his crap.

The best part of all was how the pirate guy completely called it 100%.
What a pillock you are Davos.

The Potter films never quite got the essential Englishness down to me. They were well made, but they lacked that sensibility and feeling the books did and bizarrely enough the sense of wonder in the world was lacking.

Well of course sweetie. 
I do think that one should try to view them as different entities as far as one can, but a direct adaption will always make that hard.
It's interesting you say knowing what will happen is advantage, because from my perspective I haven't read the books because I want the show to surprise me,

I find him sexy, and I don't normally go for boyish type faces at all.
Jorah Mormont looks too similar to my uncle Gary, so I can't go there without feeling creeped out.

It's 11PM. Do you know where your Dragons are?

We had our moment. Darwinism wins again.

Fear of Melisandre? Religious zeal? Who knows.

Guilty. I had no clue until the exposition.

I don't either. She's definitely got some megalomania simmering in her, and her desire for white hot revenge is a little worrying. There's a streak of possible crazy.

I'd say Cersei's much more a sociopath. She genuinely seems incapable of caring about how any actions she does effect people and is only interested in what it brings to her.
I sort of view Jaimie as trying his hardest to be something resembling a decent human, just he's born from a diseased tree.

This! This! This!
It's why he was so determined to do a good job as Hand, finally a chance to garner approval.
Poor little fellow hasn't figured it'll never happen no matter what he does yet.

Bingo! Season 2 missed that a lot for me. Those two need at least one tête-à-tête a season.

I don't think this a world where idealism has much a place sadly, it's a pragmatic world.

Jon over Rob for me too. Least he's got an arc going. All Robb does is brood, simmer and do very little.

Tywin was The Hand under the Mad King before Robert.

It's weird. I know he's sleazy as all fuck, but there's something that orders 'please remove knickers'.

The absolute worst thing about viewing parties is that someone always invites some fool who has no idea of the show and is there to socialize. This person is always the one asking questions every five minutes while everyone plots ways for his demise in their heads.

I read the episode summaries on Wikipedia. It set everything up nicely.

I watched  the new Who episode (while wearing my Tardis skirt naturally), read some of Evelyn Waugh's Vile Bodies, watched the usual Sunday night TV for me (right now GoT,The Good Wife  and Vikings which I'm inexplicably addicted to).
    I also watched Annie Hall for personal cathartic reasons, but wished I hadn't
