Game Of Thrones’ Costume Designer

GAME OF THRONES PARTNERSHIP
One of the most popular and critically acclaimed cable television shows of 2011 was Game of Thrones, created by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss for HBO. The hit series is based on A Song of Ice and Fire, the best-selling fantasy novel series by George R. R. Martin.
Next year will see the release of the film version of "Midnight's Children," directed by the Indian-born Canadian filmmaker Deepa Mehta. "It's the first time that one of my books has been filmed," Rushdie notes. "It's a very dangerous and difficult task to make any book into a film. There are so many examples of failures, of good books turned into very poor movies. Many of my friends had books turned into films and I don't think they have been exceptional films. Ian McEwan only has to sneeze and they make a movie of it, but I'm not sure if any of those films have been really outstanding.game of thrones dvd 
This is awesome. So I never heard of the HBO series (anywhere) until I saw it nominated for an Emmy. Decided to check it out OnDemand... sure enough, there it is the whole season. Was watching one episode a night, just settled in to watch Episode 5 and voila! It's gone, nada, zilch. Nothing OnDemand.
I thought I was going crazy until I saw the rest of the postings...I just called technical service and they had no idea this is happening. I was watching one episode a night as well and today I was going to see episode 5 and the series is gone from the menu in the tv AND the iPad app that controls the programming...it does not show in any search, and yet you can see it through the computer. Any ideas?
Some of the lucky souls who are experiencing the story for the first time are complaining - quite fairly - about spoilers in the non-spoiler thread. For those who have read the books, it's all too easy to drop spoilers in inadvertently. It would also be great to discuss the show from the perspective of those familiar with the source material. If you want to talk about future books, or events that have not yet been shown this season, this is the place to do it.
