I think this is my favorite scene from GoT, thus far.

I am shocked that they used an actual Beatles song on "Mad Men" tonight.

GoT. No spoilers from the book.

I like Ygritte a lot better as a tasty little treat than as a pug nosed, crooked toothed, smelly wildling like she is in the book. That role was well cast. There were a lot of more substantive differences from the book last night. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.

It was a great episode last night.

Joffrey, still refuses to realize he's not long for the throne. Arya, had to waste the 2nd assasination on her own stupidity. That scene w/ Tywin, Littlefinger, and Arya was well done. The scenery in the north was great, and that was even before Ygritte. Ygritte is a hotty. Haven't read the books, but if she wasn't supposed to be a fierly little red-head. I like this version better!
Add Theon to the list, probably #2 on the GOT list, of people everyone wants to see killed.
Where is Jamie, all season?

(I figure this doesn't spoil anything re:Ygritte) Yeah, she's written as somewhat homely in the books. Not a major change, frankly. I'm more bummed that the new Mountain that Rides isn't as imposing as the first year's actor. Oh well.

Three more episodes until the one written by Martin himself! It's gonna be epically epic.

She's a butter face in the book with f'd up teeth.

That is a terrible picture, and by TV standards she's homely in the show.

There's a shocker.

I think she's better looking than Cersei and about the same as Irri and Doreah. Daenerys is the most attractive by far.
