Also, still bitter that they're showing Liberace instead of GoT tonight.

Re: George R.R. Martin
I have a feeling once the show catches up with AFfC and ADwD, they will be taking a lot of liberties to make the show more interesting. Could be a possible rare instance where changing the book would be a good thing.

Re: George R.R. Martin
Yeah... I'm expecting them to omit and/or heavily modify a lot of the story lines from those books.... there is so much there that just has no bearing on the overall story. and way too many characters for a tv show. (yes, there are many more than we have now)
We'll probably start getting into those books sometime next season. They are going to catch up to Martin eventually as I think they're going to maybe get through Season 5 with the current material. Assuming he releases Winds of Winter next year, that gives him maybe 2-3 years to finish the final book in time for the show.

Major SoS/Episode 9 spoilers
Prediction for the finale (more SoS spoilers)
I think a lot of people will only remember this episode for a single scene, but I thought it was an excellent episode throughout. Bravo D&D.

I just gotta say, the Michelle Fairley (Catelyn Stark - Robb's mother), hit it out of the park with her performance tonight. If there is an award for the best acting in a single episode she should win it.

Just took a tour of the episode thread on hbo.com... not unlike PR after a Pens' loss.

Re: George R.R. Martin
that episode was the most brutal/holy (crap) moment of the series for me when I read the books. I remember being so stunned I litteraly struggled at work the next day coming to grasp with what I had read the night before, don't know what that says about me that I let it affect me that much.
