Boo.

Also 0 stars for the latest episode, and (I think) the one before.

What's happened to Robson or Jerome?

Jerome was probably on the boat back from Dorne with Jamie

Fun episode. Some slow bits, but some good bits.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Yay! Fuck you, Olly!

Snow vs Snow for Winterfell should be great fun, and I look forward to Jon killing Ramsay, or assisting in someone else doing so.

The flashback scene was good. That guy with the two swords was a badass! Young Sean Bean is freakishly like Sean Bean. Also they named the other guy he was with; Howland Reed or something. They don't name someone unless they're important elsewhere. I know what's in the tower, but will be fun seeing it all fall into place. Also, Max Von Sydow is as cool as ever.

I normally like the High Sparrow scenes, but that one was a bit dull.

Arya can see. I'm mixed on this. I kind of liked the idea of her as Daredevil! Still, now she can go and kill people.

I like how you can see this generational shift in attitudes. All the leaders of the North were obsessed with banner men and protecting each other and honour and all that. It got every single one of the heads of the families killed, and their replacements in every way are more vicious and cut throat. They'll all betray anyone to get ahead.

I had a dream that was a way better ending though, featuring dragons and Starks and time travel and stuff.

Oh, totally agree with all of this.

Coincidence? Hopefully, any influence he can have will be part of a closed loop. Therefore, no power to change anything.

HBO is really pandering to the conservative mainstream USA. Come on, was there any Rome episode without nudity?

Curiosity · **Posted:** Mon May 16, 2016 23:14

Thoughts.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Go Dany! Some good badassery. Being impervious to fire is a cool superpower.

Ramsey continues to delight.

The tension between Brienne and Davos/Mel is excellent, as is the sexual tension between her and the ginger wildling!

No Bran! I never thought I'd be upset at no Bran! He's back next week though.

The High Sparrow and Lannisters/Tyrells storyline is going a fraction too slow for me, but it does allow for some great Jonathan Pryce soliloquys.

All in all an okayish episode made much better by the antics of Ramsey and the final scenes with Daenerys.

Keep it coming, GoT!

I really enjoyed last night's episode. I got a little tingle when Daenerys stepped from the flames. I really, really like her. I like that she walks like a boy, is short and curvy. I think she is unconventionally stunning. I wish there were more female actresses like her on the tellybox.

I love Littlefinger. He's so smooth and dangerous.

My thoughts

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

I'm starting to get the impression that Danerys is the villain.
It was great to see Sansa finally grow a pair of Starks and *do something*
Sweet Robin is going to be a problem, but hey, the Knights of The Vale are joining the fray (3 years after the war ended)
Osha... wasted. Is this how it is now? Can't think of a way to use a character... KILL? Meh.

Overall: Good episode. Building nicely.

Yes, I didn't like the fact that

Osha didn't need to be in it at all, except to show her being killed. I was happy she was back, and then just annoyed. I guess because from all the "OH LOOK IT IS AN DAGGER" shots you knew someone was getting killed.

I thought that was to show how completely in control Bolton was. He's no fool and at least one step ahead.

Yeah, but we already know that much about him, and how ruthless he is. Although you clearly hopes he gets his comeuppance.

Should we make a "spoilers allowed" pact in here? With notification in the thread title? The constant tags are hard work and most people seem to watch it on Monday nights anyway.

I purposely don't read the thread until after I've watched this week's episode.

Mimi says that twice in a row the Apple news app has managed to run a spoiler in one of their article headlines, which is annoying as hell.

Also, we watch it on Mondays only if [Dr Shady's Plex-o-store] doesn't buffer to buggery because everyone else is on it. Otherwise we try for Tuesday.

It's not the app itself but where they are pulling the stories from. I have been annoyed.

Mali's description of sansa ages ago is still the best bit of tv criticism ever.

Also really happy to have finally found out why GOT is the only thing that buffers to hell on a Monday on Plex

Actually, it was all good this week. Even the bits with Sansa. mostly as other people were being brilliant whilst the actress sat there and wondered why people were dressed funny and occasionally begin to talk nonsense at her, often repeating the same thing several times as an increasingly angry man shouts "CUT"! and then it gets dark and they all go home. not knowing what to do, she sits there and waits
