Drumroll Please!

Every Monday, I find myself clock watching.

I sit in anticipation 

of the new showing 

of my favorite TV show.

I am not sure if any of you out there have seen it... 

but if you have not,

it is A MUST!

I was laying in bed one Sunday afternoon 

playing on my Kindle Fire & bumped into an HBO trailer.

It was all about the creation of the show, 

the fashion, 

the characters 

& 

the whole idea behind the plot.

I was sucked in & lay in bed all day and night 

(until 3am to be completely honest)

watching the whole first season.

S kept telling me I was crazy but, I could not get enough!

At the end... I have to admit, I did cry a tear or 2.

I was so into the characters, story lines & what was happening 

 that when it was over 

I found myself searching to see when the next season would air.

I was in luck! 

The next season started only 2 weeks away.

I called my cable company the next day & ordered HBO.

A few days later I came home and found S on the couch watching the series 

He was sucked in too... 

LOL

We are now into the second season 

& we can not wait to see what is going to unfold.

I did a little research and found that the story line
has come from a series of books.

Now, mind you, I usually am not the type of person to read a series of books.

  

I tried that years ago with Harry Potter and lost interest when
the first movie came out.

This series I am going to read though!

The author is George R. R. Martin & 

the series consists of 7 books.

1. A Game of Thrones

2. A Clash of Kings

3. A Storm of Swords

4. A Feast for Crows

5. A Dance with Dragons

6. The Winds of Winter (not yet released)

7. A Dream of Spring (not yet released)

The plot is clever, the characters are impeccably chosen &
the producer has a marvelous eye for detail.

It feels like you are watching a movie that never ends!

******

My favorite characters from season 1 are:

Of Course, you have to love Eddard Stark, "Ned"
He is the protector & honorable man of WinterFeld.

******

Khal Drogo is my second in line.  

The Dothraki leader... need I say more.

He marries Khaleesi (Daenerys Targaryen).

The rightful queen.

(that whole situation is HOT!)

******

My next favorite is "The Imp"

Tyrion Lannister, little guy but packs a punch!

******

Then, finally "The Bastard"
Jon Snow

There has to be something said about him getting the
Sh** end of the stick his whole life.

Game of Thrones airs Monday nights on HBO at 9pm.
