Game of Thrones Season 2

Did you guys watch it?
How did you feel it?

On my personal view the history developed way too fast, I mean too many things occured in so little time. But I
guess it was the best they could do in 1 hour. The end of the episode could have been better

PS: Where are my ponies emoticons?

Not sure how saying that it's a miserable series with miserable characters being miserable can be considered spoilers, but okay.

More directed towards future posters discussing the actual episodes.
I've read the books. I just don't want to lose any of the inherent awesomeness of watching it.
