Yeah, I get that he loves his little brother a lot and so he is happy that Oberyn is winning. But all the while, Oberyn is pointing to Lord Tywin and literally shouting that Tywin was the monster who got his sister raped by the Clegane. Tywin's face is stern as hell but Jaime can't control his happiness and has the funniest face that you can imagine. But contrast it with Tywin's and its one weird spectacle.

I remember noticing that when the episode aired, and I think it’s definitely out of happiness for Tyrion, but there’s also an element of admiration for a fighter who is so good and so confident that he’s shit-talking the Mountain while beating the piss out of him. If only Oberyn kept his damn attention on that dying fuck instead of turning to gloat and then preen for his woman. I remember reading that scene in the book and reading it again, thinking I must have been mistaken and if I only read it properly I would see he didn’t die.

Also note that Cersei's face is essentially a mirror of Tywin's for much of it.

I never noticed it when it originally played. But yes, Jaime seems to be enjoying the entire thing until the end of course.
As an aside that entire thing pisses me off at Oberyn. He was too cocky and too demanding. Finish that monster off...you won, don't be so arrogant. I just hate it.
