Personally, I'm excited about this even without Sean's involvement.  Second season for GoT is a GO!!!  Another season of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, aka Jaime Lannister:

Most of the success of this show is because of SEAN and MARK!!!! They gave GOT a life of it's own!!! Without SEAN and Mark
it just will not be the same. I really cann't see GOT as being a better show without them. Which means that I'm happy for all
of the other actors , but I may not watch GOT after the year. So please give SEAN and MARK a flashback or two. Sorry to be
so negative, but that's how I feel.

Yes, this is exactly how I feel but wasn't going to add any spoilers just in case.  Sean and Mark give it something which I really like.  And I want to still be watching it after the year - I want more quality fantasy to be made. Especially fantasy that's made for intelligent adults.

This seems to be one of the few shows that is going to actually stick to the plot of the books - True Blood certainly hasn't.

Anyway I hate to be negative!! This is the best year ever to be a SEAN BEAN FAN!!!! For so many year's  it looked like his
career was on hold and now GOT is a HIT!!!!!! And he's the STAR!!!!! I just hope that the world see's now what a great talented
actor he is!!!!

YES.  Finally.  I don't think he's ever gotten the Best Actor nod as an individual before, has he (for a major: Oscar/Emmy/Bafta/SAG)?  That's a check-mark in the plus column even if he doesn't get it!

That's a helpful guide to learning the names of the characters.  I was majorly tired last Sunday night, and not paying attention to the names as much as I should have.  Except for a few, most of them were hard to keep up with in watching the premiere.  I do know that I despise Viserys Targaryen, whose name I couldn't remember, but just thought of him as that horrible blond haired guy.

Then you will enjoy what happens to him!   :evillaugh


Harry Lloyd is absolutely perfect in the role, though - at least to me.
