Been skimming this thread while at work on my iPhone, I agree with a lot of what I've seen said here. All in all, I enjoyed it, though I had some nitpicks.

The actress who played Dany played her much more scared and stiff than I was expecting. I hope she loosens up.

Viserys was spot-on.

I think if I didn't know that Jamie and Cersi were twins, this adaption would not have indicated to me that they were even related....

I saw somewhere someone said that Joffrey didn't even have any lines in this episode, and still he looked like he deserved a kick in the keester.

I thought the wedding night scene with Drogo and Dany ended up coming off much more like rape than it did the de-flowering of a timid virgin. When I read the book, I interpreted that scene to be much more of Drogo caring and being careful, not being so forceful...

Also, Tyrion is too pretty. Where's his hump?

Finally, I know they had to do this, but that castle looked way too contrived to be easy to climb. The way they added the foot/hand holds wasn't like I imagine a castle really looks.
