Don't like Yara (Asha) though - in the books she's supposed to be pretty fit.
I think she is far from ugly and considering she is a fighter and a hard bastard, I think she looks great. She may not be a looker like Dany but she is fine IMO.

She is exactly as she should be. In the book it goes into how he feels a connection with her, despite her being quite plain and not overly attractive. Theon had also spent a long time on the boat, with only the captain's daughter for company.

Too much gayness on EP3 for my taste (thought I was watching an Almodovar's film).

That's ridiculous. I didn't see anyone complaining about the many, many scenes where it was just women involved.

The kissing was bad enough, if they start showing bummers then it is being fast forwarded.

It's in the book vasc, deal with it.

Also guys, considering we have so many that have not read the books, its probably good form to indicate what book a spoiler is talking about, or what episode it refers to?

just watched EP3 and the "gayness" was for about a minute - and considering the amount of bummage and incest so far in the show it wasnt too bad...

Maergery Tyrell comes across as a bit of a hoebag which i dont remember from the books (not in person at least)

oh no gay people on tv, if it was girl on girl you'd be chucking one out over your thumb

Enjoying season 2 so far, can't wait for it to kick off!

Episode 4 was really good. I've gotten used to the new characters and actors now.

It's arse about tit. Different things happening in different places. Still very good though.

the story seems to progress frustratingly slowly because of all the jumping about to different places. I'm enjoying it though.

I think its rushed tbh. Things happening in the wrong places

The torturing happening at Harranhal rather than the village, Melisandre and Davos under storm's End before Renly is dead etc

I've got a serious crush on Natalie Dormer who plays Margaery Tyrell. The eyes, the sneer, the whole look.
This was even before she got her tits out on the show.

Hell yes. Apparently she was exactly who the fans wanted to play the character.

Ep 4 was the first really great episode in S2.

Tyrion's one liners in the chat in the throne room with the boy king (about threats) and the brilliant way he deals with his cousin when he delivers the message from the Queen.

Joffrey deserves a real good kicking. Well, even more of a kicking for his treatment of the hoes.

Oh, and the ending was a real WTF moment!!

BIG change of plot having Arya as cup bearer to Tywin instead of Roose Bolton. I guess that means the whole Vargo Hoat subplot is ditched and someone else will be lopping Jaime's hand off...

That's just any random female without make-up :p

It's an interesting show, sometimes bored of certain plotlines dragging, but as a whole entertaining.

A well titted redhead giving birth to a smokey spectre in a damp dungeon is how i wanted to start my porn though :(

For someone who has read the books extensively there have been a number of jarring moments so far. It seems that in Series 2 they are taking a lot more liberties with the story than they did in the first series. Nothing anywhere near as bad as Jackson's soft porn dream sequence in LotR yet though! :)

The one that really wound me up (far more than is reasonable) is the random renaming of Theon's sister, presumably to avoid confusion with OSHA which is of course something entirely different.

Peter Dinklage is still the fuckin' mutts nuts though.

Peter Dinklage is just brilliant.....steals the show entirely.

Steals the show?
Peter Dinklage has grabbed the show, run out the door, got in the getaway car and driven to the other side of the country.

I remember him in "Threshold" and thinking "I hope we see more of this guy".
Also looking forward to "Knights of Badassdom" ... at some point this/next year. :)

While I do agree, I think that Ser Jorah Mormont (played by the most excellent Iain Glen) and Bronn (played by the most unlikely Jerome Flynn) have stolen a couple of Harley Davidsons, got fucked up on Jack Daniels, killed some hookers and are as we speak chasing Dinklage across the country to retrieve the show and fence it off for cash to pay for more JD and hookers. In fact, Jorah is probably my favourite character/casting across the two series. Then again I always liked him from the books.

I saw the first series of the show and thought Jorah was decently cast.....

Then I watched the two seasons of Downton abbey and now all I can think every time I see hims is "Sir Richard you're a prick!"

Dinklage really does chew up the scenery every time he comes on screen though. Seems like a lovely bloke. (judging by his acceptance speech for the emmey he won, which yes I know probably means nothing).

They have got most of the casting spot on, though I am not overly convinced by the new mountain. He doesn't look particularly big really. I much preferred the one from series 1.

My favourite character from the books is Arya and they have got her character right, just a shame they have savaged her story so far.

I really am interested to see how the uninitiated American audience will react to the RW.
