Also, House Targaren all the way. Because, well... dragons. That, and Daenerys Targaren is awesome, although it's hard to see her trying to do the right thing only to have it often backfire on her. That's tough.
Have you watched the leaked episodes? There is some great stuff coming... [Only now, I have to wait 3 long weeks...]

And while I really like Daenerys, I think she is a bit naive and really inexperienced. With time and perhaps some help
Spoiler:
Tyrion
she will be an good ruler.

This isn't normally something I would read/watch due to the graphic nature, but the story is quite compelling. I've seen the first two episodes of season four and yeah, so far not much has happened. I was pretty unimpressed by the first episode, but they always need to do a catch up ep at the start of the season, so that was expected. Episode two finally got things moving a bit.

I'm most interested in Arya's storyline and have been for most of it.

As for the end, I think it will either be Dany or Jon on the throne for no real reason. xD
Arya has a really interesting storyline. I can't wait to see how it turns out in the TV show. She is one of the characters that has grown the most personality-wise.

Also, the TV show is really toned compare to the books and while I wouldn't recommend the series to a young audience, I think it wouldn't have met so much success without the graphic content.
