Re: "Game of Thrones" HBOTbf if America don't take to it the rest of the world won't get to see it(Original post by QwentyJ)
I wish TV execs and writers would just not broadly assume that their viewers are too stupid to differentiate between similar characters.
What might work for America does not apply for the rest of the world!

Re: "Game of Thrones" HBONot strictly related to the TV series but I just came across this on Reddit:

Definitely not something to miss for readers of the books.

Re: "Game of Thrones" HBOI find it interesting to see how they have made these small changes between the book and the TV series. I think sometimes having read all the books already is a bad thing, because it makes you observe these differences, and can effect the enjoyment you get out of it.
Flipside of that is I get no end of enjoyment from knowing that I know where the story is heading, compared to those I know who just watch the show. -

Re: "Game of Thrones" HBOI've just started reading the books, and love it already
I know I'm a late starter, but I've been meaning to get into it for ages 
I estimate I could watch the first three episodes of season one without them spoiling something for me

There are a couple of things from the second book and I think even the third book that made it into the first season. Neither are exactly massively spoilerific, but still.

Re: "Game of Thrones" HBOOoh I only joined TSR today! Haha. I hadn't read through the whole thread properly(Original post by tface)
Keep up Quite a lot of people in the thread have discussed it already What did you think of it?
!
I enjoyed it!
Bits and bobs don't follow the books, but that happens with almost all television programmes that have been based on novels I guess.
I'm really excited for the third season the most really! It begins to delve more into the direwolves, and the most dramatic changes and deaths happen! (Which I won't go into detail about, as I don't want to give away spoilers).

I agree, the third book was incredible, can't wait for that season. I agree that there are a few inconsistencies but they aren't too bad! If you want to write spoilers pertaining to the books you can useSpoiler:Showthese! -

Was the second episode one week early for HBO GO just a one-time thing? -

Re: "Game of Thrones" HBOIt leaked because HBO GO customers got the second episode a week earlier and someone recorded and uploaded it.(Original post by briesandwich)

Enjoy ACOK. I wish I could experience the series for the first time again.
