    Some of the scenes are really shoddy though and poor Stannis.. he is depicted as a big child who will kick and scream if he doesn't get his own way. Those "corrections" are also silly, they come across as rushed and a little highpitched. I imagined him slower and a little more demanding, forceful. A far more calculated and powerful character, only limited by his strong lawful morality.

    I love Stannis and I was quite happy with the way that he was portrayed. I imagine after a couple more episodes the actor will sink more into the role. As has been said, they were in a rush to get everything into there.

    Yeah, far too early to tell...
    But so far I agree with Beskie, I expected more pauses and "clenched teeth" :P

    Well they had to fit a lot in so I expected it to be a bit rushed when it came to the Stannis scene.

    Wait till they get longer and you start having the urges to skip over a few pages of rambling now and again.
