I really liked the first episode. Definitely going to keep watching.

If there's anyone else like me who felt they could do with more info on the characters & the backstory, but don't want to risk Wikipedia etc. due to spoilers, then have a read of the official Viewer's Guide on the HBO website...Loads of info, without (presumably) giving too much away.

Watched about 25 minutes of the first ep so far.

Looks good. Seems like a more adult version of Merlin in some ways, but enjoyable none the less.

Good to see a largely British cast.

Also, the sets are amazing. The music lends it a nicely "Epic film" type feel, and the acting is good.

Nice to see Lena Headey acting as well..

Second episode very good indeed. There really are some nasty slimely charectors.

Difficult to choose a side so far

Very good second episode. My only issue with the series so far is that it isn't always very clear how much time has progressed. Great cast & sets, though, and an extremely interesting story.

Oh, & the opening titles are brilliant. Really well done.

I'm really enjoying this so far. As much as i enjoy high fantasy games, books etc, few TV shows have done anything for me but this has outdone my expectations.

I found it a little amusing to see a former Hollyoaks actor suddenly pop up as a Dothraki slave.
