Game of Thrones Season 2 Recap Video Released

Now that Game of Thrones is only a few weeks away from its season 3 premiere, HBO has released a 14-minute video recap for Season 2, to help fans remember what has happened in the story to date.

Currently you can view the entire Season 2 on HBO On Demand, or the DVD is available, having been released on February 19th. However, if you don’t have time for all 10 episodes before the Season 3 premiere on March 31, the 14-minute recap video is a handy and informative option.
