Me neither. Although I think they're embarrassed about it. They announced them like 10 minutes before the main nominees, so it wouldn't be on TV and they're probably hoping no one notices the mention in the press release. Haha!

Game of Thrones is nominated for Best TV Drama & Peter Dinklage has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor in the 69th Annual Golden Globes.
He deserves it, but I hope he has a more satisfying acceptance speech than he did at the Emmy's.
I love this show.

Just like the Emmy's, still disappointed in no nomination for Sean Bean.

- Making Game of Thrones: Why Working on Set in November Feels Like Going to a Rock Festival
lol. Not a single network series nominated for best drama.
Needed Spartacus: Gods of the Arena and Sons of Anarchy (best season yet), though, and isn't American Horror Story supposed to be a "trainwreck"?
Hopefully GoT will win.
Sean Bean was very very good. I also really liked Maisie Williams who played Arya Stark.
I feel bad for some like the actors like Maisie and NCW who are going to get overshadowed by Dinklage.
I really think Maisie is in prime position to take off as best supporting actress for the show. If she performs like she did in season 1 it would be a damn shame if HBO doesn't support her like they did dinklage
Plus, she should be getting more screen time in season 2 than season 1, judging from the books.
season 2 spoilers
Judging by the fact that she her story expands much more and how loved her character is and is arguably the favorite female character of the series she has a lot to work with.
It all depends on if HBO wants to hype up Dany as the lead actress or give that to Cersei they nominated her but didnt even send maisie for consideration which was really stupid given the performances
Because, at this point, it would be unfair towards the other shows.
Boardwalk Empire says otherwise.
I care in the sense that it is a) fun to watch the awards and see the stars of your favorite show win and b) it gives more exposure to the show. I don't think anyone else is putting more stock into it than that.
You probably missed the last Emmy thread. I think some of the posters cared more about the fucking award than the actors did.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
They've never been nominated for the Golden Globes.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Agency must not have gotten their gift basket.

I just started AFFC and so far it's not half bad. I'm actually enjoying it. I thought it would be terrible from what everyone said. It's slower, but, that's to be expected considering what happened last book.
Randyl Tarly is pretty cool. he may be sexist, and harsh, but he does sound like he knows what he's doing.

Game of Thrones definitely has a shot at winning this. Sucks that it's a Golden Globe though and therefore meaningless. Still the Globes did have the decensy to give my much beloved the Shield the award for best drama so many years ago. Although that was for its first season and then the show went completely ignored in its later seasons when it went from cop show to masterpiece.

But I didn't spoil nothing. I just wanted to know why it was considered bad.

I'd give Homeland the award over Game Of Thrones tbh
Blasphemy!
I haven't seen Homeland yet. Will def have to check it out once it hits Netflix.

Questions about the later books tend to lead to long digressions that aren't particularly relevant to the tv show. Also, just because you didn't spoil anything doesn't mean that other people will properly tag their responses to your query.
Please just use the other thread. It's an active thread that plenty of book readers frequent.

Holy fucking shit at them beheading X then sticking his head on a pike.
Holy shit at the end of the season finale.

So I finally decided to start watching the show. Robb and Jon look like they could be younger brothers of James Franco.

I went with Roy Dotrice for the audiobooks. I'm so used to his voicing of characters that its a bit odd to hear people in the show

Yeah I had that as well. He was good there where a fair few mistakes with pronunciation and what not but it was still good. Accents where a bit all over the place but didn't mind it.

Crap, that Guide to Westeros video is great. And there's 24 of them? That's awesome.

And we have to wait until March. WHYYYYYYYY
Apparently some new behind-the-scenes thing aired on Sat night. I've heard about it from a few people who just happened to catch it. I'm looking into it with HBO to see what it was and if it will be made available online at all.

HBO has been playing the In Production feature from November a lot recently, but I haven't seen anything new.

I'm surprised we haven't seen some official still shots of at least some of the new characters yet. I want to see dat Davos
Yeah, I thought that too at first. But I got an email from a regular commenter who says he saw it and described something that was clearly different than the In Production video. So, unless he is lying, there was something new.
It seems strange that they would just air it unheralded on a random Saturday night though. My contact at HBO was also confused when I asked about it, but she is looking into it for me. Maybe it was a screw up by those who run the promos? Dunno.
Hopefully I'll hear something soon.

whoa wut
Yeah, really strange that they would just air that video out of nowhere, but apparently the on-air team didn't coordinate with the online team and so no heads up was given and the video didn't make it online. They should be good to go now though. Obviously I'll post about it as soon as it is online.

Sounds good. Can't wait to see a more defined look at Melisandre, and I'd love to get an interview of her
