[Hooahguy]

I thought it was quite good, I thought that Margaery and Brienne wwere done very well.

[The Stranger]

but the tournament sukked :S

i like the rest

the part with the riddle of varys was great!

[Hooahguy]

Eh, the tournament was fine.

I liked the third episode, completely different change of pace from the first two.

I felt that the Renly-Loras-Margaery dialogue was great, really capturing a dynamic that only seems to be implied in the novels. I also enjoyed the Night's Watch scenes, Yoren went out like a real boss, just as I imagined.

The standout part for me though was how well they directed Tyrion's duplicity with the small council, by proposing different plans for Myrcella to Pycelle, Varys and Littlefinger; the transitions between the three and their different responses, interlinked with Tyrion's own musings on the Martells/Greyjoys/Arryns, was portrayed brilliantly by all involved and there was a real sense of satisfaction in seeing the snitch's comeuppance.

The only part I disliked was those involving the Greyjoys, but then I've never liked the principles of their house and Theon's treachery was always a major annoyance for me, so seeing these things on-screen only served to exacerbate those sentiments. :P

Another great episode. Brienne is spot on, and man is she tall.
Loved the scene where Tyrion confronts Pycell. The bit where he puts the second coin for the prostitute had me laughing hard. The scene with Varys was good too, but since they'd spoiled the dialogue in the trailer, it was a bit underwhelming.
And last part with Yoren and Arya. From the quiet chat they were having to the brutal and bloody deaths, it was excellent.

Read all the books some years ago. Probably the #1 best fantasy series for me, at least in the character story, nitty-gritty realistic historical fantasy segment.

The bit where he puts the second coin for the prostitute had me laughing hard.

Hrm, I'm kinda annoyed that I didnt get the joke there.

Hrm, I'm kinda annoyed that I didnt get the joke there.

After Tyrion places the first coin he sees Pycell struggling (surprisingly) manfully with Bronn and Shagga and comes to the conclusion that if he's so vigorous out of bed, then he must be a lot more virile, than what can be guessed by his appearance. And thus decides that the poor girl deserves a bit more.
