I read the spoilers, even tough I'm only through watching episode 5. I'll get caught up.

Drole... I KNEW Ned would die! I totally called it. I'm not expecting Drogo to die though. Maybe they'll twist the series some, like the writers have done with True Blood.

You did, it's true, and I doubt they'll change much, Khal Drogo's life (as well as the Starks, Lannisters, Snow and all the rest) is still very much in GRRM's hands. He's a writer for the show as well as producer and such.

From what I've seen, they've kept really close & accurate to the book though there are sections cut out (for time sake, obviously). This isn't a spoiler alert per say but I will give fair warning for anyone who did NOT watch the preview of next week's episode. Don't highlight the white words if you don't want to know.

I do think they'll kill off Khal Drogo because based on the preview, we saw Dani standing at what looked like a pyre and she set it on fire. Pyres are usually made to burn a body. *shrugs* That's my guess, anyway. I can't wait but then again, that means the season is over. Boo!

I have preordered the 5th book & can't wait for it to come out next month. I've read the first 3 books but I haven't started reading the 4th one yet. I'm saving it for my trip to Orlando next week. Woohoo!

Mike hasn't started reading the books and his comment after watching was, "Now how in the hell are we going to find out who Jon Snow's mom is?" I laughed. I had to break it to him but I'm about to start the 4th book and we still don't know anything about her.

Oh but we think we do. Oh the fan theories...

I have my theory too. I'll PM you. I've read up to the 3rd book so I have an idea but Mike just started the 1st book today so he has no clue.

No spoilers until tomorrow when people have had a chance to watch it but what did everyone think about the season finale?

I'll post a review & my own theories/opinions tomorrow but all I gotta say is AWESOME!

I really really want to see a 13 years old kid gets killed. It's so wrong though, ha ha ha.

Agreed. 100% Agreed! Joffrey needs to die NOW! What a wretched human being. I loathe him so much! He's no better in the books either. Probably worse.
