"Game of Thrones showrunners Dan Weiss and David Benioff have said that the show&amp;#039;s child actors will continue to surprise people for the remainder of the season. The HBO series, which launched last month to an overwhelmingly positive reception, features a number of young actors who have been praised for their acting ability. However, Weiss and Benioff claimed that the best is still to come, citing actress Maisie Williams, who portrays tomboy Arya Stark, as one to watch. &amp;quot;All the kids, as good as they are in the first five episodes, they take it to a whole new level in the second half of the season,&amp;quot; they told EW. The duo also said that they expected the negative reaction towards Catelyn Stark, but suggested that fans will likely warm to the character as the season progresses. &amp;quot;With Catelyn, people&amp;#039;s impressions might change in the second half of the season,&amp;quot; they explained. &amp;quot;You see someone being really nasty to this poor bastard boy - it&amp;#039;s understandable that people would think she&amp;#039;s rough and cruel. &amp;quot;But the character more fully reveals herself as the season goes on.&amp;quot; The show&amp;#039;s producers recently admitted that they avoid reading online fan responses to the show so that they can focus on their own ideas. Game of Thrones airs on Sundays at 9pm on HBO in the US, and on Mondays at 9pm on Sky Atlantic in the UK. &amp;gt; Game of Thrones star &amp;#039;surprised by incest&amp;#039; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
