Being a straight white male, I am looking forward to the Martell women, but the success of the show needs to go beyond that to keep the interest of other demographics.

Like you said, so far so good!

Nothing is as impactful as the Red Wedding. I guess you can say Martin did blow his load. But you have to remember, there is still Tyrion's part of the story still left. I am certain Jeoffrey's wedding will happen next season. And that is pretty big.


And while book 4 was just ok, book 5 is nearly as good as book 3, and more stuff happens. They will probably have to split up book 5 into two seasons as well. There is a lot HBO still has to do. There is a lot of content.
