Interesting that you comment on the looks, because I felt the same. Aemon Send a noteboard - 19/04/2011 03:50:49 AM
Many of the important females in the books are described as great beauties. Cersei comes to mind. Sansa and Daenerys, too. Of the three, only Daenerys comes close in the show. Cersei seemed a little on the old side, and Sansa, well, Sansa was downright plain looking. I was a little disappointed by her in particular, as a lot of her interactions in the book revolve around her looks.

Oddly, I didn't mind Catelyn at all. Maybe I just don't remember her very well, but I thought she was great in the show. Her personality and inner strength was perfect, and she's definitely someone I can see transitioning into the post-red-wedding Cat from the books.
