    I never saw it.

    Started to read the books. I am 4 chapters in, but I find its very difficult to follow. Way too many names, places, events, titles, etc and they all have pretty similar names due to the dialect. Does it get easier?

    The Kindle version is nice because you can press a name and it will give you a short synopsis.

    I didn't realize that the book version had a breakdown of all the houses at the back of the book until I finished it ... could have saved me a lot of time going back and forth trying to figure who was who

    Cool episode. Maybe my favorite opening scene since the first episode. Wish the witch would've said the whole prophecy, but a cool adaptation none the less.

    I'll wait and watch the full episodes in full HD glory.

    Starter episode to the season..its tough getting reaquainted with all these characters/story lines.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I'm sitting out this season since it passes the books, but had free HBO this week so I did watch the first episode. Glad it didn't spoil anything that the books haven't got to yet.

    last night was great, I am losing track of what did/didnt happen in the books as we move beyond the 3rd book. Good to see some sex, violence, and humor throughout!

    There was lots of action, but I feel like they packed two episodes into one.
