I'm really sad that Arya and Tywin are no longer going to be having their tableside chats. Those were definitely the highlight of this season for me. Qhorin better not go down like a bitch. I loved the way they visualized the plan in this episode, and I get the impression that Qhorin is PISSED about John's fuckup. The "you gotta kill me, dude," and resultant fight scene had better pay off.

With Jeyne, Cat took it to mean she wasn't to be trusted or some prophetic nonsense of dooooom. It's Cat, though, so yeah. I'm just happy ~~My Gendry~~ was in last night's episode. Not that we got to see him in all his grimy, shirtless glory of course. And my view of Robb's delightful abs was blocked by his stupid clothing and Talisa's rear end of vow-breaking. For shame, HBO.

The Jon/Ygritte sex scene is going to kick so much rear end. Although I will distracted from Kit abs because you know Kit won't close his mouth, and Ygritte won't keep her tongue out of her lower lip. Them kissing will be odd because they both have such annoying mouth quirks to overcome.

Friend of mine has been reading the books since the first season finished. I wasn't really following her progress, and then she texted this to me out of the blue today: oh poo poo oh poo poo they killed all of them lol not robb why why? Did you get to the part where they sew the wolf's head on to him? Yes. That's three friends I've introduced to the books, and three great red wedding experiences.

Poor Robb. After the Red Wedding, everyone immediately associates him with having his wolf's head sewn onto him. I guess that's what happens when you're an honorable idiot, son of honorable idiot.

It sucks that we don't get to witness it happen. In the books at least. I just look forward to Grey Wrobb resurrected as a fire wight taking back Winterfell and reclaiming his biutifuru Jeinu-chan and siring a litter of semi-wolfen pupchildren.

After having finished Abercrombie's The Heroes, I started GRRM's Dreamsongs book 2 (hadn't found book 1) anywhere. I read halfway through A Beast for Norn before I realized I don't really care. Somehow GRRM's prose feels like watery poo poo or something after Abercrombie. I read how cool that Tuf guy is just sitting there all big and something drinking beer and went all UGH. It was like reading a 12-year-old's writing about a cool character. So what I'm asking, is there anything besides The Hedge Knight worth reading in that book?

It's got ups and downs, the new scenes are usually the best of the week, but sometimes they make really weird decisions, like having Catelyn release Jaime without knowing about Bran and Rickon (instead Jaime's about to be lynched by Karstark).

You do know there is more to acting then what you described here right? There is more layers to Tyrion and acting in general then being able to sum it up with quippy and grim. Also, not to put words in other peoples mouths but we don't want to hear about what you thought of the books. Also, you just used past tense when describing Theon like he still isn't apart of the on going series, implying that hes dead up to your point in reading the books, so thanks for the spoiler rear end in a top hat.

As much as I'm gonna miss the Arya/Tywin chats, I was glad to see Tywin leave Harrenhal. All of the characters treat Tywin like he's this super intelligent and calculating guy, but all we ever see him do is eat and hit on twelve year olds. ...poo poo, Tywin's another GRRM-insert, isn't he?

Jorah's another GRRM insert for being an ugly old hairy Nice Guy who lusts after a little girl who reminds him of his gold-digging ex. I'm not sure whether Brogo and ~Daario~ count for actually butt-loving said little girl or whether they're just jocks.

Urgh, the show's really going down the pan now. They just don't have the time (or money I guess) to do anything justice. The best we're getting is like, one scene (e.g. Brienne and Jaime), that's essentially a super-condensed, abridged approximation of the relationships and events in the books, while hitting the important plot points like 'Sam finds obsidian'. And gently caress what they did to Arya's whole storyline.

You're losing focus. Arya's storyline is shorter, which means less time needed to get to the Red Wedding. The only storyline that we should cheer being fleshed out is Robb, Robb getting naked, Robb being happy, Robb winning, generally anything that increases the viewers (re: girls) fandom of Robb and Robb related happenings and the impact of his poo poo getting wrecked. Everything else is icing on a lemoncake that should hurry up and get to the fireworks factory.
