That cast list video makes me excited - BWB, the Reeds and Brynden Tully at last! I wonder how they will introduce the latter two as The Reeds in particular should have already been pretty established by the end of the second season and Brynden Tully should have been raising hell with Robb since the first season. That dragon in the other preview looks awesom as well.

Completely depraved and unpredictable people all around. She was being beaten on the regular by her taskmaster dude. They took away her kill for the show. There was no feeling that she was in mortal peril the entire time she was there in the show.

Aye, and I thought the whole making pals with Tywin Lannister was a bit odd as well.

I know there is that part of Cat that is desperate to get her girls back in the books as well, but it's the only part of her that seemed to make it to the show.

Yeah the dislike for Jon Snow immediately drops her in the rankings but her obsession with protecting her children is pretty prevalent throughout - and like you said the dislike for Jon stems from that. Like Sirken said the fact that he looks more like Ned than her kids and a constant symbol of betrayal being raised as well as one of her own probably drives the hatred - I'm sure she even says as much in one of her POVs. The drive to protect her children is what motivates all her actions and eventually what drives her into madness and undeath.
How do you guys think they will split Jon's/the Nights Watch storyline over two seasons?
