I have been following the threads and posts since before the start of the series and have had a great time with all of your thoughts, questions, opinions and ideas. I have not re-read the series and am fuzzy in a few areas but it is all coming back quickly. I know this sounds naive but I am a Northerner at heart and loved the Starks so much I don't want to watch the next few episodes as I know what is going to happen. No chance of them changing that is there!!!
