Game of Thrones (TV) - US Pace - NO BOOK DISCUSSION (that means NO BOOK DISCUSSION)

That was a bumpy ride.

That was not good. 15 minutes of boring Sam gooseberry fool followed by 15 minutes of boring Arya gooseberry fool (remember when her storyline used to be one of the best parts of the show? I miss The Hound so much!) then a semi-interesting final 20 minutes.

Big fat meh overall.

They killed off 2 major characters 2 episodes a go in a fairly low key way. Can't help feel they could have spread that across 2 episodes and fleshed out the deaths a bit. This weeks episode did feel a little filler like.

Honestly, unless someone dies or something spectacular happens then it's dull episode.

Quality scene showing the High Sparrow's sneakiness. Great scene and the return of Benjen to save Bran And Meera. Some more exposition and character development and Arya's story finally moves along.

But, no it was utter gooseberry fool!

Margaery not walking nude = a strawberry floating outrage strawberry float this show.

Totally called Benjen showing up.

Nice ending as well, but Danaerys storyline has cock teased us like this so many times that it's hard to get too interested. I guarantee that AT BEST she'll secure some boats by the end of the season but will still be strawberry floating about in Mereen otherwise.

Not a fantastic episode but still enjoyable.

I had a feeling that Tommen's good nature/lack of experience would work against him and allow the High Sparrow to 'turn' him

Benjen turning up was hardly a surprise either, shame he didn't show up earlier mind. I'm guessing he'll be Coldhands in the books now.

I'm glad Ironhide mentioned something from the books. I was worried we would get through Monday without the traditional Ad7 book rant.

Now the show has overtaken the books the NO BOOK DISCUSSION rule is fairly pointless.

Annoying Ad is a nice added bonus though.

Book split! Split split split!

Walder and Ramsay die and Sansa, Daenerys and Margaery nude?

! Here's hoping!

I love how upset Denster gets when someone doesn't like an episode.

Boring, boring episode.

I hope you die you cockwomble

I liked it. Even the Sam gooseberry fool. I was totally hoping for a bloodbath at the walk of atonement though

I didn't like the forced "We'll need 1K ships" dialogue. Oh do you need 1000 ships? Because I can't imagine where you will get your 1000 ships. I wonder if someone is building 1000 ships.

i love how an episode is gooseberry fool if there's no tits or explosions for you.



UGH - it's just people talking and interacting. I hate it when they advance the story and set up future events.

I just want sword fights and minge!

Don't we all brother, don't we all.

I admit. I'm wounded that Margaery didn't give us a wink at her pink.

I pretty much cried when High Sparrow said there would be no walk of atonement.
