Excellent New Yorker article on Martin and his love/hate relationship with his fans:

I think I saw on facebook that you can watch it on tv.com... but I have no idea what that is.

Looks like there was free HBO this weekend. So I did get to see the pilot of the series.

It's been renewed for a second season.

It's ridiculous to renew a series for a second season based upon the pilot episode.

It wasn't a "pilot" necessarily, it was the first episode and followed the book almost to a T. The reaction to it has been huge, even my mom has been itching to see the next episode. The fan base is probably large enough to ensure good ratings.

Ratings wise, it didn't do as well as the Boardwalk Empire premiere, but it did better than the True Blood one.

I'm usually not wrong (actually, I almost always get it wrong), but this time I'm quite wrong. I concede that in my earlier post I was wrong to knock the show, because I have seen a couple of episodes now.
And it is pretty good.
I don't watch TV much nowadays, but this is GRRM, and GRRM gets a little of my time, no matter how busy. I'm glad it didn't suck, and the gratuitous scenes didn't detract too much. Dinklage, as is the character he plays, is awesome.

Dinklage owns this show.

Having read the book now, I can't wait to see more of Tyrion in the show. How many episodes is season one expected to have?
9 or 10 I think.

And how long do these things usually have to wait before being released on DVD?

Ah. Well, I guess I could spend that waiting time watching the boxed sets of TV shows I've got lying around. A half dozen shows... at least. But then factor in all that anime I'll be needing to see soon. I'm sure that I can keep myself busy.
