GoT in Australia

[catalyst2]

Looks like Game of Thrones will air in Australia from 17th July, according to TV Tonight. Of course, that it is on cable - now Ii just have to wait for it on free-to-air or DVD, whichever comes first!

We saw the first episode on Saturday night. Whoaaa. Intense, complicated politically and full of what I would call extreme violence and not particularly extreme sex and bare breasted women (the women and the violence not usually combined) - the sort of thing I'd usually avoid - but there's a strong story there which is compelling.

I'm eager to see the next one.

I was just there for the Dire Wolves really, because all I knew about it was this strip http://www.unshelved.com/2006-7-23

I loved the comic strip!

Strangely enough (or not, depending on your point of view), the sex decreases in intensity in the books after the first one - the violence never abates, however!
