I'm sorely disappointed in the actor playing Darius. He's a stinkin pretty boy!
I was ranting and raving about this last night, much to the wife's chagrin.
Eske: "HE'S SUPPOSED TO HAVE A FORKED BEARD. I DIDN'T READ 18 PAGES OF EFFUSIVE PRAISE FOR HIS FORKED BEARD FOR HIM TO NOT HAVE A FORKED BEARD ON THE SHOW."
Mrs. Eske: "Shut up, beards are gross."
EDIT: More on Daario, from Greenwald:

Daario Naharis is a total Surfer Bro. He claims he's from the Free Cities but come on: This dude is from San Diego! "I'm the simplest man you'll ever meet" isn't something a warrior says; it's what the guy in the baja tells you before offering to take you to the best burrito shop in town. "I only do what I want to do," he tells Dany, between bites of "killer" guacamole.

I liked the Sansa & Tyrion moments though. Sansa actually smiled. Likewise, the Hound and Arya on the horse scene. Maybe it's just watching the interaction and facial expressions of the actors but the relationship seems much more complex with the viewing.
Ditto on the Hound/Arya parts. I think I found the Tyrion/Sansa bit a little too awkward to fully enjoy, though I suppose that's largely the point.
I like how the White Walker that attacked Sam/Whatsherface was the exact same one that stared at him when they made their big entrance north of the wall at the end of last season. That guy really has a thing for Sam.
