ChaoSera:
I agree.

Method of Madness:
It doesn't seem to be going anywhere in particular.

FWIW, Wikipedia lists him as an executive producer. In real world terms, that probably just means that Mr Martin has to have lunch with people that he doesn't know several times a month. However, it does mean that he has to at least sign off on some stuff. So, he can't disclaim all responsibility for the end product.

So... Has the show jumped the shark?

Full Disclosure: I don't watch the show. I read the first two books and hated them enough that I couldn't reach the end of the second and will never read Martin's misanthropic works again. However, I would be genuinely interested to know what fans of the story (both incarnations, because I get the impression that they are diverging) think about where the show is going.

Method of Madness:
The second book's took to get through, but book three makes it worth it...is what I would say if you didn't hate book one as well. Dang.

Lines:
What. Books 1-3 were good (3 is best) but book 4 is a nightmare. But if you don't like the first book, then there's no point reading them all. Especially if we're uncertain the series will ever actually end...
