I didn't pay attention long enough to know character's names. I noticed that there was a dwarf who happened to have high integrity, and the dragon mother girl seemed to be a good person too. But when half the cast went bye bye after five shows, that was too much for me. It's like being in the Vietnam War ............... on the side of the North Vietnamese. Born to die.

Why do you think we pulled out of Vietnam? NVA soldiers kept getting younger and younger. The military brass thought it would be too much for the American psyche. Not even we are not averse to killing eleven year olds.Cb6263522ebaeb5cf72a941742f4a5b73f70c078_s

Your son is one too? Interesting. I can't comment beyond that though. Since we never had children, I don't know how ours would have turned out. Good I hope. You never know though.
Hi Tim

The Dwarf is Tyrion..... we liked him, and he surprised us when he killed his evil father and ex lover..... who wanted his head chopped off for a crime they knew he didn't commit.  Someone poisoned the evil teenage king (Joffrey).... (thank goodness) I couldn't stand his nastiness any longer.  I cringed every time I saw him ......   There is a lot of killing little babies and children in it too, and its so distressing!  I have to leave the room or stick my fingers in my ears and close my eyes.  My husband wants to keep watching it.
The mother of dragons.... Daenaries (I think)... (not sure if spelt right) is interesting.... she has been releasing slaves only for the slaves wanting to be slaves again.  They felt secure being slaves, and freedom scared them.  smiley: eyes  Now she has had to chain up her baby dragons because they are not only killing peoples goats but their children too.  She has no control over them. 
I keep watching it because I want to see the Lannisters fall..... what an evil family they are.  Ceresi the most evil of the lot...!   I hate to see evil triumph over good!!
