    Some could watch it on HBO too. And it has no commercials ;p

    I'm continuing to eagerly count the days. This will certainly give me something to look forward to after my Spring Break ends.

    Not all of us have that option.

    It is such a quiet thing, to fall. But far more terrible is to admit it.

    Real fans pwn up the money for HBO.


    And it's not even a big deal. Robb Stark is still Robb Stark, and not Gordon Stark because "Robb" is too close to "Robert Baratheon", or in this case Lucius Baratheon.

    Well, I had that luck.
    Man, if I didn't saw that one freakin' commercial about new fantasy series on HBO (which started also that day),
    then I would never have knew this series xD

    "Real fans"... its great that you are so loyal to a tv-network, however you can't claim that whoever does not purchase some sort of "on-demand" account at HBO is not a "real fan".

    And yes it does matter, Asha is a POV character that have huge importance in the books. Robb (short for Robert) Stark does not have a single POV in the whole bookseries.

    Yet he is a king. Who is the central character in one of the plotlines.

    But ya, they should not have changed Asha's name

    So if you don't have £40 a month disposable income for Sky Atlantic, you're not a real fan? Mark me down as not a real fan than. Because if I did have a spare £40 a month, I wouldn't spend it on Sky just to watch 10 episodes of one show.

    I don't know about you guys but i really like the casting of the new characters. Blackfish, Lady Olenna, Beric, even Thoros is a change for the better. Edmure Tully i am not sure about. I like Menzies he is great but no red beard? I understand it though as they are probably seeking to make it symbolic that he isn't very mature.

    I have been wondering how they are going to work the Ironborn in. It would make more sense to save all Iron Island stuff for next season seeing as Euron hasn't been introduced. I guess they could do what they did with Theon and end it on a cliff hanger, and introduce all the Iron born next season at the Kingsmoot.

    Daenarys is looking fantastic. I'm becoming increasingly excited.

    Honestly, I don't care. Euron prompted absolutely no interest in me, and Victarion started off being dull as a stump, then earned my everlasting hatred.

    The men of the Iron Islands are quite the silly lot, coming from a background of hardcore viking people you'd think they'd be more awesome, but they never get to be.
    The most interesting (imo) is Harlaw, and he's seen as one of the least Ironborn of their leaders. Asha though I find interesting enough.

    ...Dull as a stump? In his first POV he boards a ship, catches a knights sword with his hand and chucks the guy in the sea...Yeah, dull. Victarion is one of the better characters. He's like a Ned gone wrong, super "Honourable" as he views it, in a brilliant perverse way. I quite enjoyed his character, Euron is however a tool. What in particular gave him your everlasting hatred?

    Looking forward to seeing Victarion strangle the guy who calls him a fool!

    I second this, Ironborn in Essos is like Starks south of the Neck; garantueed death (at least I hope so)
