You seem to be one of the few saying the episode was boring. While the episode wasn't beginning to end action, it was necessary and interesting. Off the top of my head, the following happened:
1) Intro of Littlefinger
2) Intro of the other members of the small council (Renly Baratheon, Varys, Grand Maester Pycelle)
3) We find out Daenerys is pregnant
4) Viserys makes an ass out of himself and gets punked the **** out by one of the bloodriders
5) Arya starts her dancing lessons with Syrio
6) Conversations between Tyrion and Jon Snow, which were very interesting and enlightening
7) Intro of many characters of the Night's Watch (Commander Mormont, Ser Aliser Thorne, Grenn, Pyp, Maester Aemon, Yoren, etc.).
8) Development of Jon's character after Tyrion talks to him about the backgrounds of the boys Jon schooled in training.
Without going into spoiler territory, all those items above are important in their own ways. Nothing about the episode says boring to me. If you were bored by it, it's probably best you just stopped watching. The books are filled with descriptions and setups similar to what you saw in the last episode.
