first things first - hbo is evil. only 15 minutes??? and i have to wait 2 weeks now for the first episode??? come on, hbo, you're so. not. fair.
that being said, games of thrones looks like the best series ever. the imagery is breathtaking, THERE IS THE SEAN WHO IS TEN SHADES OF AWESOME OMG. he was born to play the lord of Winterfell and i bet the Aries in him got all giddy at the idea. unfortunately, the books say he will get dead (again! Aragorn is smirking with kingly satisfaction somewhere) there is high fantasy and a touch of horror and it's like watching a grittier lord of the rings.
other than that, in 15 minutes we got to the body count of 3, including a decapitation (look, Aragorn would not be happy about it. i guess Eddard is definitely thinking it's a damn fine thing Aragorn is not king in this movie. there's no one to shadow his gritty awesome, which Aragorn does in LotR. repeatedly. because he's Aragorn)

in conclusion, i just can't wait for that damn episode, omg.
