Have you seen the video of people's live reactions to it? Pretty funny.
I am right there with rpncaine - didn't read and was shocked. I yelled out WTF, thought it was someones dream. Can wait for Finale.

Great show. Love the MoD scenes.

I really wish I could have watched with someone who didn't know what was coming. My husband and I were gripping each other's hands the entire episode- as soon as we found out the title was "The Rains of Castamere" we knew it would be the Red Wedding episode. Because we are big geeks.

I hadn't read the books when I saw Season One, so I remember being all, "What? But Ned's the main character! They aren't going to - Oh. Ma. Gawd."

FWIW, Rob's wife is a totally different character in the books and is not at the wedding (her parents were in on the plot- long story, blah blah blah), so the thing with Charlie Chaplin's daughter was absolutely shocking to us, too. So far, they haven't made any changes from the books that I've disliked.

This season was the first half of book 3. Lots of good stuff coming up in the second half. How can I wait another yeeeeaaaar?????

My friend says if Tyrion Lannister and MoD hook up - ratings go through the roof. I agree, but an awful sight
