No I think it should be stated at least 5 or 6 more times that Robb mentioned Rickon in Bran's room while talking to Cat.

Game of Thrones Ratings increase again.

http://winter-is-coming.net/2011/05/...-in-us-and-uk/

Things are starting to gain steam

HBO’s Game of Thrones inched upward in the ratings for the second week in a row.
The 9 p.m. airing was seen by 2.5 million viewers, up slightly from last week’s 2.4 million. This is yet another positive sign for the fantasy series, climbing in the numbers despite the show’s story pace lessening a bit the previous week. The show’s action kicks into high gear starting on Sunday’s fifth episode, which could result in Thrones gaining even more traction in the weeks to come, just like True Blood its first year.

And in the UK, the numbers have risen as well. Digital Spy reports that this week’s episode was watched by 628k viewers, which is up 23% from last week.
