Yeah I watched it.
Having read all the books, I knew what was coming.
But, it was still incredibly powerful to watch. Especially Catelyn's scream at the end.
I haven't read the books so I was floored. I may go back and read them after the series is over.

It was just an amazing scene... So unbelievably powerful and completely unexpected... I had tears strolling and tv/movies never make me cry...
Also I don't think I was crying over what happened... I wasn't sad... I honestly think my body just didn't know how to handle the emotions and shock and so tears just started rolling

I said the f-word more times in the last 5 minutes than The Sopranos did in 6 seasons.
I mean holy..... [6 paragraph's of profanity later].... was that hard to watch. I had to pour myself a drink when it was over. Thank God Mad Men gave me some good Roger Sterling humor afterwards to lighten the mood a bit.

LMAO!!! I was wondering if any fellow DisneyWorldphiles watched GoT, particularly last night's ep. And here is this post!
I knew it was coming, but still wow! Although I did find the actual RW sequences oddly subdued. It worked, but it still felt weird to me, all the same.
Last night's GoT actually knocked me off my WDW for a time. Although with next week being the season finale, I will have no such further interference.
Not looking forward to True Blood at all. Last season was abysmal.

One wedding down...one to go...
Though, I bet they save the other until next season.

I went through shock reading the book years ago.I'm still in shock.
Last night was more like...dread. But in a good way.

I watched Mad Men, Veep, Family Tree, and Maron hoping the lighter tone of those episodes put me in a better mood to go to bed. It didn't really work too well.

I knew what was coming from the books but they had a few changes that made it worse in the show for me.

The show and the books are fantastic, each in and if themselves. Having read all the books, I personally don't mind the little changes. Some, we're quite necessary. The biggest one, I think, being raising the ages of some of the younger characters. For example, in the books Dany is only 14 when she becomes pregnant with Khal Drogo's baby. Guess they didn't want to show her....becoming pregnant.....as they did on the show.
I didn't even wait for the first episode to read the books. A bit before the premiere, HBO ran a teaser. It was the first scene of the show, when the three rangers went out beyond the wall and were attacked by the Wights. The survivor was the one who was executed by Ned Stark for desertion. Just seeing that, I thought "Holy crap, this is frickin amazing." I ran out and bought the books shortly after.

During the first season, Costco had a paperback box set of the first four books. Ever since then, I have gone back and forth as to whether I want to read them yet. I want to, and yet I am afraid it will diminish my enjoyment of the show. Hard to decide.
They absolutely had to age all the kids up. I think Sansa is 11 at the beginning of GoT book. Also, I wonder about the legal implications on tv. Regardless, I am sure HBO didn't even want to deal with the yuck factor and potential backlash is the audience, especially among those non-book readers.
