shipperxHave to say, they staged the last scene well. Even knowing what was coming, they got me...perhaps even more than the book. I teared up for poor Ned, Sansa, and Arya.
Shae is different than I pictured. I'm intrigued by that and the possibilities the (apparent) difference in personality might make.
Thought they pulled off Tyrion back story well as well. I wonder whether they actually edited it, or whether they're saving the other part for a later date. I could see it going either way.
Moment of hmm... anyone think that Varys' talk with Ned is perhaps a hint about "A Dance with Dragons"? I think I read that Martin told the producers where the plot is going and it would be neat if they slipped a bit of unknown connection in.

Poor Ned. He was a good man who loved his daughters and his family... and that's not enough in Westeros. :(
