Renly was a queer in the books...it just wasnt as blatant as they make it on the show.
Lena Headey makes me actually like Cercei more than the books...but I agree....I thought she would be more attractive.
Yup.

I recently finished watching season 3 and I'm almost done reading volume 5, "A Dance with Dragons", which does not follow volume 4 "A Feast for Crows" in the traditional sense, so much as run in tandem with it. This according to the author...
It's good stuff, and I look forward to the next book, "The Winds of Winter".

We're finishing season three right now. Discs two and three come tomorrow via netflix.
We started watching the series randomly a year or so ago and got so confused we decided to start watching the discs from the start.
Great series and remarkably well done. Peter Dinklage (the imp) is incredible. The weak points for us have revolved around Dynarus and the Targarians. Hopefully that will improve. The Wall, Winter-fell, and Kings Landing have all been steller scenes.
I noticed on the credits that locations are Iceland, Croatia, and Northern Ireland. There may be more.
The problem for us is I don't want to subscribe to actual HBO, (we used to) with Bill Maher and the rest of the progressive scumbags there. I don't know how we'll watch season four. I suppose we'll wait for them on disc.

That's how I've watched it. Just wait until they come out on DVD and then watch the whole season over two or three nights. Season three ends somewhat not like you'd expect. As in "The Walking Dead", absolutely no actor is assured of a long term contract. 
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

The time between this season and the last one is painful.

I won't give anything away, but I will tell you that having just finished reading "A Dance with Dragons" that I am still somewhat in shock by some events...
the beheading of the beloved Lord Eddard Stark isn't necessarily the most shocking thing that George R.R. Martin hits you with. This is one ruthless author!

The Red Wedding is a hard one for me to get over...
I can't wait to see what happens next...
