That would be kind of sad. I like HBO has done for tv shows. Really raised the bar on what a series can offer.
Well, if HBO's wonderful TV lineup goes away, you can blame GregN.

Had no idea the second episode was available online.
Just finished dl'ing it.
it's not on the HBO go site. ...
I managed to catch the ep as well. Following suit and will not speak of it yet.
Does HBO Go do advance showings of all the episodes one week early, or just the first couple eps of a season? And is that ep only up on HBO Go for a limited time or up until the premiere of the ep?
The version of the ep I watched had the HBO GO lobo in the upper right corner the whole way through. So I wonder if it was a '24 hour special' type thing.
Good episode tonight. Interesting that they're not putting Stannis's daughter or Patchface in the series. Not important characters though. I did like how Arya told Gendry about her identity earlier than in the books....
*necro-bump*
Been loving S2 so far. I'm glad I didn't read the 2nd book. Been seeing so many whiners complaining about how the show has veered off from the books.
From what I've seen, the pace seems rushed, and certain sections omitted (but I'm sure it would have cost HBO too much $$$ to film).
Anyways, other than Jon's storyline (which has been very disappointing to me), I really liked the Arya/Tywin storyline. Their scenes have been the best this season. I also never liked Cersei or Sansa until this last episode. Their scenes were pretty heartbreaking.
I still don't like Cercei. But totally agree on Tywin and Arya. Tywin is slick. I'm really disliking Daenerys. I'm also not sure how HBO will handle Theon's fate. Maybe veering from the books is necessary. It's a bit too graphic even for cable. How often does Titus Andronicus show on tv? Exactly.
One can only hope they deviate from the books because those books are 1000 pages of boring each.

Wrong.
Probably the shittiest opinion I've ever read here. I'd agree with Ninny's thoughts on the Witcher 2 before I'd agree with this.
