One of the best scenes in the entire series.


I agree, the show was true to the book as well, which was cool. I like how Jon says, "Who are you?" and he doesn't say his name, he says his relatives names ("My father was Maekar, the first of his name"), and that was all you needed to know that this dude was a badass.

I read the books after Season 3, and saw that season 1 was very true to the first book. It goes into much greater detail about Aemon and the unlikely succession that led to him being offered the throne, but it was no less dramatic, even when I knew who he was ahead of time.

That scene is a real tour de force acting performance, though. He's a blind, frail old man but you can tell there is definitely some Targaryen still left in him. I could watch it over and over again.
