This season could've used more gay sex scenes, then again, Renly and his boyfriend weren't very sexy anyhow.
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

I can recommend the Borgias as well, to quench your thirst while you wait for GoT :wink:

Indeed. The first season was a bit slow, although the closest one to history. They deviated a lot more with the later seasons but nonetheless they were better overall. Loved the last episode of season 3, finally Cesare Borgia is taking off. But guess what, shows been canceled, 2h movie to wrap it up also canceled...

Casting for Season 4 is underway - shooting will start at July 8th.

Confirmed to be in Season 4
Styr, Magnar of Thenn (a wilding leader int Mance's army)
Mace Tyrell (father of Loras and Margery, warden of the south)
Oberyn Martell (brother of Elia Martell who was former crown prince Rhaegar Targaryen's wife)

I hope they cast Oberyn well.

I wonder if they will cast any of the Greyjoys who we haven't seen yet. Damphair could probably be cut although he is a POV character in the book. Euron could be merged with Victarion to make it less complex.

Yeah there is a certain scene with Oberyn I'm really looking forward to as I'm sure others are. I'll be pissed if they cast him badly but so far they've done a great job casting.

Also yeah, the Greyjoys should be interesting.

It's funny how the most correctly detailed parts of the series wrt the books are the sex scenes.

Also they already achieved maximum casting quality by making Boromir die in the first season.

I think Margery's and Joffrey'S wedding should be in the next season, shouldn't it? One big wedding per season.

I think the next season will probably be broadcast around april 2014. Plenty of time to finally read the books...

And I disagree on the Greyjoys. I found their plotline in the books rather boring.

Owen Teals will be returning as Alliser Thorne for Season 4.

He is the trainer of the Night Watch recruits and wasn't exactly best friends with Jon Snow in Season 1.
I hope Janos Slynt will also appear again. He is the former captain of Kings Landing's city guard who was sent to the wall by Tyrion as a punishment.

His character is one of the prime examples of shitwriting in the show, on pair with 'french sleeves' Loras, Sansa and Shae pointless scenes. He was sent to King's Landing like 27 episodes ago and they, well, forgot about him.

Well to be fair it is quite the same in the books. It's something George Martin likes to do.
He even gives major characters long breaks like Theon absent from Storm Of Swords or Jaime absent from A Clash Of Kings.

I'm just glad when they get those support actors back when they are needed. I just hate it when they cut characters which were introduced in previos seasons - like Greatjon Umber being cut after season 1.
