1 thing I'm really looking forward to in season 4 will be the interactions between King Joffrey and his father/uncle the Kings Slayer. During the 1st 3 seasons we've seen some great dialogues from 3 generations of Lannisters but we haven't seen this combination speak a word to each other. There is a very small glimpse of it in the trailer but I imagine there will be a few epic scenes involving those 2.

This season is going to be great... I imagine this is going to cover the rest of book three and then a little into book four.

I'm so fucking giddy.

Just finished book 5.

All I can say is....IT'S ON

New girlfriend has never seen Game of Thrones. Seems like an excellent excuse for a GOT marathon on a cold, January weekend.

Definitely a fun show to introduce people to and watch with them. I recently did the same with a new gf before Christmas. Her reactions, favourite characters, and least favourite characters are so predictable and very amusing. She wants all the bad guys dead, especially Joffrey. How lame would the show be if it had no bad guys?

2 weekends of GoT marathons on hbo go and I'm halfway through season 2. I'll let you decide if that's a reflection of my social calendar or my devotion to the show

Thankfully my gf is a huge fan of the show, she's just as eager for the new season as I am.

I too will be doing some sort of marathon before the season starts.

1st few episodes should be epic! Book 3 is only about 2/3 done and The Red Wedding wasn't even the climax of the book. There are 4 or 5 events still to come from book 3 that should make for great TV, especially with this cast. Maybe not as emotional as the Red Wedding and might not generate the same reactions but it should be fantastic!

Holy figgity fuck, two more days.

Hey guys, both the pron version and the dog version of "Game Of Thrones" would be "Game Of Bones"! See you all at the comedy awards!

So it looks like Daario is a face changer just like Jaquen H'gar.

A Feast of Hoes? A Flash of Dongs? A Storm of.... okay, a Storm of Swords pretty much works on it's own.


Pretty great start to the season tonight. Lots of good lines.

Mildly disappointed with the season premiere. Mostly just a table setter this week. I think next week is going to be pretty huge.

Was hoping for an appearance by Ramsey Snow.

Rising action is generally not as exciting, but I thought the script was really good and there was a lot of clever dialogue as usual.

Braun: "I'd go to sleep... I'm getting old."

And the ending scene was pretty fantastic/satisfying.

great start so fantastic
