I'm watching, and love it, but I've been a fan of Iannucci (and the rest of this writing team) for ages, since their British series The Thick of It. He basically does one thing - bumbling vulgar politicians - but he does it so very, very well.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Because books.
Am I supposed to be shipping Sansa and the Hound? Because I feel like I'm supposed to be.

Maybe a little? I wouldn't link them romantically, but there's something between them.
This whole episode was conversations between unlikely people. Love it!

So we've had 7 episodes so far.
FOUR of them have ended with babies/children being murdered.
I am really not okay with this.
OTOH, the show is making me root for Queen Sansa way more than the books ever did.

Art Crawl!!!
Oh, the books made me really hate her.
Also: the Sansa/Hound pairing is a favorite ASOIAF ship.
I'm sad that Sansa didn't set fire to her bedroom.

People who have read the books - tell me if DH is being too spoilery here: [link] in the last item before the quotes. Or does it only read as a spoiler because I know what happens next?

Hmmm, difficult to say.
