    Ohhhhhh I can't wait!!!!!!

    Just trying to finish the last book so far A Dance with Dragons it got a bit too much there for a while had to take a break, sit back and soak in the greatness that is A Game of Thrones.

    Is it sad I can't re-watch the first series because it will ultimately lead to the death of the hotness that is Sean Bean :(

    I know exactly how you feel. Seeing all the Starks being happy and that damn Theon. Its heart breaking. I assume you know what im talking bout since youve read the books.

    I honestly can't wait - I'm in two minds though - Should I watch the new episode or leave it all till the second season ends and watch them all at once.

    Decisions decisions.

    I very rarely watch tv shows as they come out and watch them on DVDs, usully over a few days or a week. It's more emmersive if you watch them all in one go, but you miss a lot of the slow build up and excitement waiting for thr next episode.

    Am I missing out on something? The show premiers next Sunday at 9pm, but that in GMT (+5 hours) is 2am. So if the show was on tonight, you'd have to wait until 2am tonight, not 2am or 5am last night/morning. It's only Sunday afternoon in America at the moment!

    I think I'll stream it online also (if that's what you were planning) because I won't be able to wait until Monday night!:D

    I haven't been hooked on a show of this caliber since Battlestar Galactica and then this came along and easily ranks alongside it, and they're only 10 episodes in! Just intense the whole way!

    I don't watch ANY TV, besides this show, makes it all the more immersive!

    Also got me back into reading, which I haven't done since the Leaving Cert!

    I was thinking that myself :)

    Balls, my bad. I thought I was posting on Sunday night/Monday morning, I normally come up to college on a Sunday, but I came up Saturday instead this week so I was confused.:o

    I'll record the whole series and watch a few at a time when I get the chance, unfortunately I have these irritating people (partner, friends, family) who keep monopolising my time! The irritation of it all!

    I think I'll burst with excitement :D

    A Dothraki wedding without at least three deaths episodes of Game of Thrones is considered a dull affair :pac:

    I'm never around Monday nights so I'll have to wait until Tuesday evening every week :( Yes, it's only an extra day but I'm a very impatient person and I've been waiting 10 months for this!


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,140 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Ah... 10 months... that's cute... ADwD was, what, a 5 year wait?

    I cannot wait for the show to start back again. Definitely the best show from last year. Hopefully it will turn into one of the best ever. It is out on Sunday night in America

    Met Jack Gleeson today on College Green. Seems to be a genuinely nice guy, made me feel bad for hating him (or Joffrey) so much. I suppose it's a compliment though, that one actor could stir up so much emotion in me for a fictional character. Wished him luck for season 2 and he was on his way.

    Can't wait for Season 2 now, so excited!


  • Posts: 8,016 ✭✭✭ Brayson High Gunshot


    Finished season 1 last night just in time. Really is such a great show. I had been reading the first book in hope of finishing a few of them before watching the show on tv as books are generally always better then their movie/show counterparts but just gave in. Looking forward to seeing how the story develops.

    I can't remember a baddie I hate more then Joffrey, I'd love to stand on his head!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,228 ✭✭✭podgemonster


    Running a half marathon on Sunday, will be out that night probably so will catch the show Monday evening. I really cant wait to hear to opening music again, epic!

    Looking forward to seeing how the new characters get on and
    to Tyrion giving poor Pod a hard time for everytime he screws up.

    I know! I can't wait for
    Podrick Payne :)
    , really loved him as a background character


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,069 ✭✭✭Tzar Chasm


    Pod is one of the more interesting bit characters as he finds himself crossing at least 3 arcs as the books progress, I really hope they do justice to his heroics on the black water

    Anyone have a reliable site to watch the series on? I don't think i have the patience to wait for the torrent to go up.
