Season 1 BluRay and DVDs are out now. I'm tempted to pick up a BluRay drive for my PC now.
And some of the extras are out on youtube, like some of the auditions and the commentary tracks. Or Arya, Bran and Sansa singing the main theme.

This is one of the best shows I have ever seen. Very compelling, and a properly directed dark medieval fantasy.
Also, I love The Imp.

Suffice it to say that the Queen and her ilk should all be gutted. All expect the Tyrion.

*in Gimli voice* YEEESS!
Obligatory youtube link for more Imp Slapping.
And this great comment on the video:
"Actually, if you replay even the original video frame by frame, you'll
notice that each of Tyrion's slaps make contact with his opponent's face
long before the sound of the slap gets its chance to occur. Which
makes editing any Tyrion video incredibly difficult. It's like he
splurged all his stat points maxing Speed, Wisdom, Wit, Intelligence,
and Charisma. YO TYRION DAWG WHERE'D YOU GET ALL THOSE STAT POINTS WHAT."

Ah, the Tyrion slapfest set to Guile's theme. Loved that video enough to favorite it ages back. My mom liked it too despite knowing jack all about Street Fighter. Everyone likes seeing Joffrey smacked around. XD

Rory McCann audition tape- this is from a scene between Sandor and Sansa on the Kingsroad that never made it into season 1.
The fact that they substituted Littlefinger narrating the story to Sansa is criminal.
First look at Grey Wind!

I hope they skin Joffrey and his mother, and I hope the littlest Stark and Snow does it.

Yes they are, but remember to read books 4 and 5 together.

He should've included the note about timeline explanation in the beginning instead of the end, because I only read it after I finished the fourth book

They both deserve it. They murdered Robert, they murdered Lord Stark. Made an orphan of two small children and stole thr throne from it's rightful owner. Given the time period it's cause to be strung up by the thumbs for all to see. Also Jeoffrey's a c**t and so is his mother and that's reason enough to want a character to die.

Jaquen looks kinda cute. >.< I imagined him as more gaunt.
Also...
I want to see Cersei do this on the show whenever she one-ups someone. ;p

The man who was willing to send the kingdom into chaos, resulting in the deaths of thousands just because he wanted to throw some base born bastard on the throne, in the name of honour?they murdered Lord Stark.
Personally I think it's completely reasonable to have him "taken care of". The thing is Cersei never wanted him to die anyway, she wanted him sent to the wall. His execution was Joffrey's doing alone.
lol, the "rightful king" who stole the throne from it's previous owner and looked upon the mutilated bodies of said former king's wife and two children with sadistic glee?Made an orphan of two small children and stole thr throne from it's rightful owner.
That "rightful king"?

Soon! So soon! Can't wait.
Baseborn bastard? Did you watch the show or read the books?
Stannis is far from "baseborn bastard" and is actually next in the line of succession. Joff is actually a bastard, lol.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with bastards (I mean, look at Jon) but am just curious as to how wrong your argument is.
c) I suppose you missed the commentary on Aerys. If you've watched the show, it's somewhat excusable (though we're told a number of times how 'great' of a king he was) but if you've read the books then it's laughable.
Aerys was obviously not fit to hold the throne. Why should Robert have bent knee after all that he had done? After the unrest that Aerys' son had instigated?
I also have no clue where you're getting the 'sadstic glee' from. First, Tywin ordered the deaths of Rhaegar's children and his retainers went quite a bit overboard.
True, Robert wasn't horrified or angered (though we don't really know) when the bodies of the children were brought to him because allowing them to live would be contentious to his rule and because he wasn't exactly fond of the Targs at that point. That far from "sadistic glee".
a) Pig tore a very drunk Robert apart, yes. He was drunk on some extra strong alcohol on the order of the lovely Cersei Lannister, yes.GodWood wrote...

A pig murdered Robert with the assistance of Robert's stupidity and alcoholism.
Now that is a genuine mistake on my part. Forgot he went with Stannis instead of Gendry. (it has been a while)

Point still stands though. Good old Eddard would rather thousands die and a kingdom in chaos over safety and stability.
But he was the rightful king!c) I suppose you missed the commentary on Aerys. If you've watched the show, it's somewhat excusable (though we're told a number of times how 'great' of a king he was) but if you've read the books then it's laughable.

From the wiki.I also have no clue where you're getting the 'sadstic glee' from. First, Tywin ordered the deaths of Rhaegar's children and his retainers went quite a bit overboard.

"His hatred was so great that when Tywin Lannister presented Robert with the mutilated bodies of Rhaegar's wife and two young children, Robert was actually pleased they were dead. Eddard Stark on the other hand was outraged and disgusted by the act, calling it murder and saying the young prince and princess were no more than babes. Robert's callous response was: I see no babes. Only Dragonsporn"

a) You're missing the point. Yes, Robert's an idiot and a drunk but he wasn't given regular wine on that day. It was a very strong wine.
They took advantage of the fact that Robert liked to drink and gave him something much more potent. Otherwise the boar would have been easily dealt with.
How is handing the kingdom over to the Lannisters indicative of safety and stability? Stannis would've rebelled anyway. As would have Renly.
Ned's a pretty honourable guy if you haven't noticed. Of course he's gonna stick with Stannis rather than letting someone like Joff take the throne. The only time he compromises his 'honour' is when someone he cares about dearly is in trouble.
c) The rightful king, who was insane, who had half the realm ready to boil, whose son instigated a war (no matter how honourable or prophetic his actions may have been). He killed the two elder Starks because he was insane. They were there to figure what happened and he killed them both. He gave plenty of reasons for his deposition.
d) He was pleased =/= sadistic glee. Like I said, he wasn't exactly in the best mentality when thinking of the Targs at that point. It only got worse with time.
Honestly, I'm not agreeing with the poster you called out initially but vilifying Robert in an attempt to justify what Cersei/Joff do is laughable. Though, I suppose a case can be made for Cersei if we're counting the tv show only.
