Yeah, that does seem to be the case. They like to flaunt what they can do over regular t.v. channels. I don't mind it that much for the series, since it is in the books, for the most part, but that scene in episode 4 I mentioned (which is more of a nude scene than a sex scene anyway) was just bad film-making and was only added, as far as I can see, to add a nude scene to the episode.

I remember reading an interview with the guy playing Khal Drogo where he was talking about how uncomfortable he was filming the sex scenes (particularly those in "the Dothraki fashion" *rolls eyes*) since he's apparently very close to Emilia Clarke (Daenarys).

Anyway, compared to Camelot on Starz, which seems to be trading out all resemblance to any version of the myth I've ever heard in favor of adding pointless erotica, Game of Thrones is actually handling it fairly well. It at least *usually* reveals something about the characters.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
