I'm hoping they worked out the majority of the kinks for the second episode. I had some serious issues with the pacing.

HBO is pretty reliable when it comes to unnecessary sex scenes. But the Jaime/Cersei one is canon, isn't it?

I agree! I can't put my finger on it, but some scenes are very slow and some just fly past unnoticed (like Tyrion / the Hound conversation which sounded really good). I am not sure if the sound is done this way intentionally, though. I don't even know what bothers me about the sound. Something is off. Is it because there is no background music?

Oh yes. but by the time we got to it I was all "Please spare me more sex scenes". But they didn't . :D

I agree on the pacing. I've seen a few more episodes (due to my job) and the show really kicks off after the third.
