Trada dude, I would try to stick with it for at least a couple more episodes. There are sum really good things that happen in the middle and end of the first book.
I never realised how slow the beginning was when I read it the first time round but it is quite ponderous, but the fact the Bran got pushed out of the window for seeing a brother and sister going at it made me think that this is different. Not many fantasy stores are THAT debauched.
The things that start happening to characters in the book later on make the slower start well worth it honest. You really don't want to miss out.
Nicolas coster whatshisname is perfect as Jaime lannister.
The one thing I have found though is that with watching the series it has fleshed out the characters even more than what they did in the books. Syrio Forel was ace. Arya is show stealing with Tyrion at the moment. Tyrion - Pissing of the edge of the world lol. Forgot he wanted to do that.
But the best acting that I've seen in it so far is Sean Bean. I thought the way he tried to make up for the killing of Lady by buying Sansa a doll was perfect, as he so brilliantly failed in grasping the mentality of his daughter who is now becoming a woman. For this happens with so many fathers in reality, as their daughters were their 'little princess'' until they start growing up and then they don't want anything to do with their dads as they are changing.
Boys change slower and easier than girls. They end up doing the same shit just on a bigger scale lol. Luckily for Ned Stark, Arya is an out n out tom-boy, so for him to get her a sword fighting instructor is easy for him to understand, whereas Sansa................
