    Or, instead of 'hoping it comes to the UK'.. y'all could just watch it online after it airs in the states?

    hhmmmm I'm not convinced by it yet. Seems like a late entry to ride on Lord of the Rings' coat-tails. I'll stick around to see the dragons though...

    To be completely honest, I'm more excited to see HBO's take on American Gods, but guess I have a year or two to wait.

    I am!

    I don't understand how we in the UK will be able to watch it though, can't get HBO in the UK. Will it just come out slightly later on the BBC?
    Sky Atlantic, is HBO.

    Also it is a Brilliant series. Not just because it has hot women topless, but because it has violence too...

    **** YEAH!!

    I thought the opening episode was great, better than I expected it to be.

    I desperately want to read the books now, but don't know whether I should wait for the series to finish and then proceed to reading.

    From the advertisements it seems like there will be lots and lots of sex in it. This is the only reason why I will be watching it.

    Have you never watched anything on HBO before? EVERY program has a bit of T&A in it.

    I thought the second episode was much better than the first, which seemed a bit rushed, although I suppose they were trying to introduce the cast. IMO this isn't a series for people who haven't read the books, the significance of things like the stag horn impaling the dire wolf would probably be lost on those who haven't read the books.
