Game of Thrones: Season One

Game of Thrones will be starting its third season in two months, and this was one of the many reasons why I looked into getting HBO in the first place. I started into it a while back at Stan and Marissa's place, only to return to their house a few weeks ago to watch those same first three episodes to get my girlfriend into the show as well before I moved forward. It's a great show that has clearly inspired several bloggers to watch and read and post through the series, so I'll keep this brief- Game of Thrones is a story that required a huge budget and cast to work, and HBO knocked it out of the park- each episode really draws you into the fantastic world of Westeros (and Easteros?) and has plenty of running storylines, and I can't remember finding any of them boring in the slightest. If you've got any interest in the series, it won't disappoint- give Game of Thrones a shot.
