    that's because they can't have people throwing offensive words round on TV silly (I am there Johnny, been plenty of that thrown around, I still love the little guy big grin)

    Also the condition is dwarfism.. lol technically most correct thing to call em is dwarf lol!

    I suppose I was thinking of the most recent episode, as it is fresh in my mind.

    But yeah, in terms of the show like Stanis Baratheon, Joffrey, Tryrion, Ned, Arya, Jaime, Rob, Littlefinger, and that Targaryen chick are the only names I know.

    Otherwise it's just faces.

    As far as the information brokers go, I prefer the Eunoch to Littlefinger in terms of where he sits and depth.

    I really enjoy the Eunoch? also. I haven't read any of the books so I can't comment on his character in that platform, but in the show he has so much depth. He's so emotionless and unreadable and seems to have his fingers in everything. It's just impossible to know what his real intentions are and whose side he's on.

    YES! I'm so much more interested in what he's up to. He's the only male character who doesn't think with his d*ck, and I'm utterly serious when I say that.

    I think that's precisely the reason he is compelling. He isn't fettered by those supposedly "phallic" extensions of ambition or honor.

    Nothing he does seems to be fueled by any kind of emotion either. It seems like the hubris of a lot of the characters in the show is somehow tied into emotional or sentimental responses or behaviors, while he's completely emotionless. Like he's simply coldly acting on whatever course of action benefits him the most, regardless of anything else. I'm pretty interested to find out whose interests he's really serving. I know he stated that he serves the general benefit of the people, but considering the nature of the show I kinda doubt its as simple as that.

    Perhaps it is that simple. In a cast of scoundrels, moral centers are found in the unlikeliest of places.

    That's a good point. They even revealed the old maester, I can't remember his name, the really old councillor who served the mad king before King Robert, to have phallic motivations. When they showed him in that scene with the prostitute from Winterfell. The Eunoch really is the only character whose motivations haven't been revealed at all.

    He also had like, an oddly limber and energetic moment while alone. It seemed to be setting something up, though I have no idea what.

    The Old Guy, I mean.

    Yeah I forgot about that. Like he stretched and then purposely hunched himself and made himself look older and more feeble than he actually is before he left. I guess in the political arena of King's Landing if you appear too aggressive or able then you end up dead for one reason or another. If the maester didn't know what he was doing he wouldn't be as old as he is.

    I always thought he was distinct looking,

    But then on IMDb it was all just like "Little Boy" and I was all just like "I actually felt sympathy for that kid once...".

    Which, damn, credit to Mr. Gleeson, I guess.

    He is quite the savage little madman. I read an article that wondered out loud what effects, if any, these graphic scenes are having on the child actors. Que sera, because the kid actors are astounding.

    I've thought about that before myself. Like when you see babies in movies where really disturbing horrible things are going on around them. Always makes me think about what kind of parents are okay with their children being exposed to all that. I mean when your a little kid you can at least be told that it's all make believe, but babies don't understand that stuff. You never know what kind of lasting damage could be subconsciously sustained there.

    Also have to agree about their talent. I've found Maisie Williams as Arya Stark to be especially enjoyable to watch. Great character.
