Game of Thrones

[Gogan]

Yeah, I had a pretty hard time remembering everyone's name from watching the show. Early on, I could only remember Robert was the king, and Ned Stark -- only because they say their names a lot. But even still, Ned will always be known as Boromir (LotR) by me. I remembered Arya's name, because it's a cool name and I like her character. Of course, the "dwarf/imp" is one of my favorites too, and I don't know his name. Same with the Khaleesi. Awesome character, but I'll be damned if I remember her name.

Fortunately, I didn't find it terribly important to remember everyone's name. I can imagine there's TONS of good backstory you'd get from the books, though.

P.S. The dire wolves are awesome. I hope Arya and her wolf are reunited at some point.
