Season 2 is confirmed after 4.2 million views in the first episode.
http://winter-is-coming.net/ read the first book few weeks ago after a recommendation, and I must say it will only get better. Quote:

tbh there is little to no fantasy in general the fantasy parts like we know like dragons and other creatures are more a curiosity then something happening every episode. The manuscript could have easily been revamped to a modern setting.

If you don't like fantasy, then you don't like fantasy, but Zimmer is correct when he says the fantasy elements are quite understated. Its not like LotR where you have a Hobbit, or a Wizard or an Orc in every chapter/scene.
It is like a dark and complex political drama that just happens to be set in a fantasy world. |

On topic, I watched the pilot on Sky Atlantic and thought it was great, I'll continue to watch if not only for Emilia Clarke! ![]() It's low fantasy if anything. Also, I have found a usefull image showing all the houses and characters with their respective actors, doesn't really contain any spoilers apart from the characters and what houses they belong to etc, probably usefull even for people who have read the books. http://i.imgur.com/BUk58.jpg | |

Presumably because the actor has whitened hollywood teeth. But yeah, I found the eyeliner a little odd at first, but then I decided it was a good kind of odd; these guys are supposed to be strange and different and it certainly gave off that impression.
