List of episodes

The first season of the American television drama series Game of Thrones premiered on April 17, 2011 and concluded on June 19, 2011. It consisted of 10 episodes, each running approximately 55 minutes in length. Game of Thrones is based on the novel A Game of Thrones, the first entry in A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin. The story takes place in a fictional world, primarily upon a continent called Westeros but also on a large landmass to the east, known as Essos,[5] where the noble Stark family, led by Ned Stark (Sean Bean) is thrown into the middle of schemes for the throne and against the king when the Hand of the King (chief advisor) dies mysteriously.

HBO broadcast the first season on Sunday nights at 9:00 pm in the United States, with a repeat showing at 11:00 pm.

The Iron Throne symbolizes the rule of Westeros for which the noble houses contend.

The cable television series closely follows the multiple story lines of the A Song of Ice and Fire novel series,[6] whose author said that the show's pilot script was very faithful to his work.[7] The series begins with Ned Stark (Sean Bean) being asked to be the Hand of the King (Mark Addy). Ned and his wife Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) receive a letter from Catelyn's sister, Lysa (Kate Dickie) that gives them reason to believe that rival House Lannister was the cause of the previous Hand's death. Ned must travel south to help the king and find out who killed the Hand of the King, John Arryn (John Standing), while trying to protect his family from the Lannisters.

Meanwhile, the exiled Viserys Targaryen (Harry Lloyd), son of the former king, believes he still has the rightful claim to the throne. He marries off his sister, Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), to the leader of a warrior tribe, Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa), in an attempt to get an army to conquer the throne. And beyond the wall, an ancient force, long believed dead, threatens the land.

Cast

Production

David Benioff and D. B. Weiss serve as main writers and show runners for the first season. They contributed seven out of ten episodes and co-wrote one episode with Jane Espenson. The remaining two episodes were written by Bryan Cogman and A Song of Ice and Fire author George R. R. Martin.

Tom McCarthy directed the original pilot, but much of this was later re-shot by Tim Van Patten, who also directed the second episode. However, McCarthy is still credited as a consulting producer for the pilot. Brian Kirk and Daniel Minahan directed three episodes each, and Alan Taylor directed the final two.

Casting

On May 5, 2009, it was announced that Peter Dinklage had been signed on to star as Tyrion Lannister in the pilot, and that Tom McCarthy was set to direct.[8] On July 19, 2009, a number of further casting decisions were announced, including Sean Bean being given the role of Ned Stark,[9] thus confirming a rumour first reported a couple of days before.[10] Other actors signed on for the pilot were Kit Harington in the role of Jon Snow, Jack Gleeson as Joffrey Baratheon, Harry Lloyd as Viserys Targaryen, and Mark Addy as Robert Baratheon.[9][11]

In the beginning of August 2009, it was revealed that Catelyn Stark would be portrayed by Jennifer Ehle.[12] On August 20, more casting announcements were made, including Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Jaime Lannister and Tamzin Merchant as Daenerys Targaryen, as well as Richard Madden in the role of Robb Stark, Iain Glen as Ser Jorah Mormont, Alfie Allen as Theon Greyjoy, and Sophie Turner as Sansa Stark and Maisie Williams as Arya Stark.[13] On September 1 Lena Headey was announced as Cersei Lannister.[14] On September 23, Martin confirmed that Rory McCann had been cast as Sandor Clegane.[15] Isaac Hempstead-Wright was confirmed as Bran Stark on October 14, followed by an announcement of Jason Momoa as Khal Drogo three days later.[16]

After the pilot was shot and the series picked up, it was announced that the role of Catelyn had been recast, with Michelle Fairley replacing Ehle.[17] Later, it was also confirmed that Emilia Clarke would replace Tamzin Merchant as Daenerys.[18][19] The rest of the cast was filled out in the second half of the year, and included Charles Dance as Tywin Lannister, Aidan Gillen as Petyr 'Littlefinger' Baelish, and Conleth Hill as Varys.

Filming

Most scenes were shot in Northern Ireland. Principal photography was scheduled to begin on July 26, 2010,[20] with the primary locations being the Paint Hall Studio in the Titanic Quarter of Belfast, Northern Ireland,[21] Among other exterior locations, Castle Ward and Doune Castle in central Scotland[22] served as the backdrop for Winterfell. For the initial shooting of the pilot in 2009,[16] additional filming locations included Cairncastle,[23] Shane's Castle,[24] Castle Ward,[25] Magheramorne Quarry,[26] and Tollymore Forest Park,[24] all in Northern Ireland. The show's presence in Northern Ireland and use of Paint Hall created hundreds of jobs for residents, and made the area "a hub for film and television production".[27]

The "King's Landing" exterior scenes were shot at various locations in Malta, including the city of Mdina and the island of Gozo.[28] The filming in Malta resulted in controversy when a protected ecosystem was damaged by a subcontractor.[29]

As of March 7, 2012, the first season of Game of Thrones has a Metacritic average of 79 out of 100 based on 28 critic reviews, categorized as "generally favorable", with a user score of 9.0 termed "universal acclaim".[50]
