In addition, Ran from Westeros has commented on the show's title sequence (which will apparently give us our first look at a map of the Free Cities, but will change from episode to episode) and Den of Geeks has the first review of the screeners HBO has sent out of the first six episodes. Other critics who have received the episodes but are holding back on full reviews are also Tweeting almost unanimous praise for the series, which is encouraging news.
Finally, on a slightly different angle, actors Harry Lloyd (Viserys), Emilia Clarke (Daenerys) and Richard Madden (Robb Stark) have been interviewed by the London Evening Standard with a fashion-based approach. An interesting read. Clarke is also interviewed alongside Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) here.

What ever happened to Tom McCarthy directing the pilot?
McCarthy directed the unaired pilot, but cast and script changes necessitated reshooting most of it by Tim Van Patten. In discussions, McCarthy agreed to take his name off the episode since so little of his material was left.
This is going to be an epic show, I've been hearing nothing but good things, especially if it's anything like the books. Tomorrow you can catch the sneak peek on DISH Network high definition channel 300, HBO. Working for DISH I know you'll find your favorite shows in HD, especially when they have over 200 of them, free preview of HBO next weekend for the first episode!
