Well read on all of the books, several times.

The show is perfect, seems like its word for word at times

Ser lyonel was definitely a charismatic casting in the show, but definitely the outlier. The guy is supposed to match ser dunc in physical appearance and he’s just not even close to what I thought.

\spoilers\
With how much I loved this tv series, I just don’t see ser dunc vs ser lyonel being that cinematic, given ser Duncs arc. I mean he’s supposed to be Frankenstein esque, and lyonels actor is Oberyn Martell (Pedro pascal) adjacent. I mean this is supposed to be one of the the best 1v1s ever.

All that being said I’m very excited for season 2. I hope they refrain from flashbacks and keep the slow burn of Duncs ascent.
