I'm quite neutral towards Theon, he had his ups and downs with his deeds, so I call it a tie with his personality S:P
I'm more interested in the other members of his family, more precisely in his uncles 8) Can't wait to see them to appear already :D~

I dunno, I've never liked the idea of poison, it doesn't really sit well with me when a target can't fight back.
That's how women kill, dude... no fancy eye-to-eye duel till the death, they just "stab" you when the least you are expecting 8)
Oh, yes actually, I have to correct myself:
Spoiler!
The killer was a certain SHE with the help of HIM, who will probably show his face in the next episode for sure 8)

I was wondering when we'd get to see what his sister had been up to, after the end of last season she seemed like she was going to have a major role this year, carving her way through Bolton territories to save her little brother 8) . also, not having read the books, do we know how much territory the Grayjoys had taken during the war ? From the way the Bolton's were talking it seemed like the Grayjoys pretty much owned everything in the North.

In the books does SHE ever admit to anyone that she killed him or do we at least get to hear her motivation? Also why was HE working with her? how did that come about?

Also just one last quick question, I promise, now that he's dead who's the current queen ? Does Margaery Tyrell get to keep the title or does it default back to Cersei ?

Cersei will be Queen. And she'll remain so for quite some time, much to the detriment of... detriment of, well EVERYBODY.

Trust me Rookie: there are far more tougher guys in the Greyjoy family than Balon, Yara (Asha in the books) and Theon combined 8) Just wait until next season, I don't think they will introduce Balon's brothers until Season 5, but after that... now that will be worth to watch... totally 8)

About the killer:
Spoiler!
If you are eager there are a lot of fan sites that already spotted out the killer of Joffrey and yes, it is really (or seems very likely) HER doing. However, she will not reveal herself in the books, but in the series there might be some hints of her or her intentions already, if you watch the next episodes trailer... or it will be the other person, HE who will tell Sansa the truth as in the books... whoops! Enough spoilers for today! :D :wink:

How long do you think till all episodes are out and I can watch them all in one go? I've learned not to torment myself with waiting for the next episode...

You mean all Season 4 episodes? :P If my calculations are right, and if there aren't any delays, Episode 10 will be aired on the 8th June :)

With the amount of publicity this show gets now it'll be pretty much impossible not to stumble across at least a few major spoilers if you plan to wait out the season.

I feel like I've been put in my place... Why do I feel like I've been put in my place ? :?

Anyway, looks like the show is moving forward again, looks like we'll see a lot of movement in the major plot lines in the next episode. I'm not sure if I'm alone in this, but I kind of thought that a large part of the last two episodes felt kind of like fillers, with a few good story points thrown in. I don't know, might just be me.. Please don't hurt me.

No, you are right.
The episode 3 was so boring I had to watch the second half of Merlin's season 3 to have my "fantasy-meter" re-balanced :D
However, I'm getting REALLY REALLY curious how the hell will the producers solve those little scenes they planted into the show.
Spoiler!
For example the whole Bran at Craster's Keep was totally not in the books and now it seems impossible to me, how they will get out from the grasp of the renegade brothers of the Night's Watch.
Also: did we just happen to see a REAL Other? o.0

Coming from you, that worries me. Hopefully they don't mess it up somehow,
Spoiler!
for example having John Snow save him or something that would contradict the books heavily.

Were the Others those strange looking White walkers at the end ? I kind of got the impression they're the leadership behind the White walkers, but what do I know *Shrugs*.

Also what was up with the baby ? I assumed they were going to some sort of creepy sacrifice or something involving the child's soul, but it looked like they just turned him.

I have the same feeling Rookie...
Spoiler!
Although in the books Jon and Bran never crossed each other's path, not to mention that Sam didn't actually tell Jon that he met Bran in the derelict castle... also Bran and his companions had a "creature" to escort him Beyond-the-Wall... but I fear the producers already threw him out of the story already :/ or not?

Yup, in the books they are called Others, but in order to not confuse the fans of the show, the producers renamed them to White Walkers. Little is known about them in the books: they are mentioned very few times.
But let the Makers tell you the thing :P
And I am absolutely can agree with them: since little is known about the White Walkers by characters of the book as well, it creates many many theories and speculations of what are them are really and what is their true intention...

In addition: I starting to really like Petyr Baelish 8) scheming little [censored], but I really admire him! :D

I was going to start watching Game of Thrones but I never got around to it. The only thing I even know about GoT is Ramsay Snow. My friend sent me a link and said that character reminded him of me. I wasn't sure whether that was an insult or a compliment.

Well.. Considering what this guy does for fun, I'm going to assume that's a bad thing.

I just finished the 5th book
Spoiler!
why Jon! I liked the foreshadowing with Ghost snapping at them but now I am sad. Poor jon, restoring the nights watch and that's what they do to him although I don't think he should have announced he was going to march south to winterfell like that
