Well, it’s obvious he has been searching for someone to love him despite his dwarfness.

His character at first really turned me off, but he has grown on me and now he is my favorite character, along with Brienne of Tarth. Jaime is starting to grow on me too, I never thought that would ever happen!

Dany and Klal Drogo were also favorites.

"Well, it’s obvious he has been searching for someone to love him despite his dwarfness."

Yep! And I would really, really love to comment further on this, but I must bite my tongue. I will only say that as I read about this in the books, I loved it.

"His character at first really turned me off, but he has grown on me and now he is my favorite character, along with Brienne of Tarth. Jaime is starting to grow on me too, I never thought that would ever happen!"

That is one of the things I love about this series, the arch of the characters. Where they start and where then end up. I would have also never thought that I could do anything but loath Jaime, but it is literally amazing what his time with Brienne did to him and revealed about him. Just amazing!

"Dany and Klal Drogo were also favorites."

Dany and Drogo, especially in the books, were just stunning. At first I was a bit worried how they came off in the series as I first watched, but by the end of season 1 it was great.

One of the things that really impresses me about the series is some of the added or altered scenes. Such as the one in the Tower of the Undying where she encountered Drogo and her son in a tent outside of The Wall. She did not see Drogo here in the books, she saw something else.

That scene was very touching emotionally to me. It was acted so damn well. All the while it was clear to me that if she had kissed Drogo in the tent or sat in the Iron Throne in the scene just previous, she would have been lost in the tower forever.
