Best show on TV. Really well done and true-ish to the books. Learn to use torrents.

Knowing Oz TV, it probably won't come to TV for a couple of years and will be heavily censored when it does. More likely come to Foxtel.

Censoring seems to becoming less common. Shameless when it was played on SBS wasn't censored, will be interesting to see if it is now it's coming to one of the commercial networks. Dexter is playing on one of the commercial networks late and doesn't appear to be censored.

SBS don't tend to censor too much, never have. It was always regarded as the channel a person watches if they wanted some soft, European porn. SBS have gotten more commercial over the years though. The other free-to-air channels get the razor blades out and cut shows to bits.

It's actually surprising how much the channels do cut out when comparing the same show/episode with an uncut one from the torrents..

That's how I know the commercial channels don't seem to be censoring, I watched a lot of the shows that are on via download whilst living away (didn't have tv connected) and the episodes they're now showing here don't seem to be cut. I think they're getting away with a lot more on Australian television in the last couple of years, even Come Fly With Me and Little Britain in a fairly early time slot on commercial television remain intact.

Not heard of it, did some research on IMdB - it has an amazing 9.5/10 score.

I thought - Medieval fantasy, my son might like that so I went to the parental guide: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0944947/parentalguide

and I quote...

• "A girl at a brothel apparently performs oral sex on a dwarf."
• "A female character is undressed by her brother. Breasts, rear nudity as she enters a hot tub are shown. She is undressed by her husband and bent over, implying sex."
• "The women are bent over and wild thrusting occurs from various men behind them."
• "Two characters simulate intercourse with the man shown thrusting from behind."
• "Ravaged bodies of men, women, and children in a frozen forest have been hacked to bits, heads are on stakes, and there are dismembered limbs all around"
• "A deserter is caught and beheaded for his desertion. A young boy watches."
• "Men fight over a tribal dancer and one is disemboweled."
• "Multiple uses of "*****" and "sh*t". "

My kids won't be watching it BUT I WILL!

I'll get downloading tonight!

Same, we have a couple of different folders on the apple TV and the PVR, they are titled things like, OK for Kids, OK for kids if adult present, DEFINITELY NO KIDS. That way they can't make the excuse they accidentally clicked on the wrong movie or tv show.

I'll start downloading this one tonight.

Yep, btjunkie is going to be working overtime this evening!

Not to mention:

- eating a horses heart
- lesbian scene
- gay scene
- flashes of female genitalia
- full frontal male/female nudity
- lots of protitutes
- incest scene
- use of the word ******

The books are quite explicit and the show isn't too far behind.

Who ever wrote the lines for Peter Dinklage who plays Tyrion Lannister (the dwarf ) did an exceptionally good job , he steals every scene he,s in.
