Anyone else watching this? The first episode was Sunday night, and episode 2 leaked early yesterday. If anyone doesn't have HBO or access to the show, shoot me a PM and I can help you out if you're interested in this program. I really enjoyed the 5 books so far, being one of the people who had never heard of the Ice and Fire series until the buzz around the first season of the HBO program with Sean Bean got me interested. Now neither my wife nor I can seem to get enough - she even went so far as to get herself a battle ready reproduction of Arya's sword Needle, and her buying something weapon related was something I thought I'd never see happen, hah.
Anyway, the first episode started things off from the 2nd book rather slowly, but having just watched the leaked episode 2, the pace is quickly increasing, much as it did the first year. The sets they filmed on were in some of the most incredible and remote (Iceland etc) that you can find, and the sound/music is impressive as well. The actors are also top of the field IMO as well.
