My parents both watch the show and whenever I discuss it with them I have to explain who various characters are and what's going on. My brother's terrible at keeping track of the characters - he gets confused about which house people belong to, let alone who their loyalties lie with at any given time. He describes his enjoyment of the show of "Yeah, they're all fighting over something and sometimes they say something witty. Then they have a sword-fight.". I just like the OP because it gives a decent chuckle.

Irish Joe posted:TBH, I didn't know who Locke was when he showed up at the wall, either. It took Bran two seasons to get from Winterfell to the Wall, so the last thing I was expecting was some random Bolton lackey to do it in an episode. It makes sense that it would take much less time for Locke, since he could use a horse and the kingsroad. Bran can't walk, went thru the mountains, and stopped constantly. Locke still got there very fast though, but that's how people travel in the story. As fast as they need to.

I thought he was just a dude who looked a bit too much like the six fingered man. Then they started with the lingering shots and sinister music notes and I realized it must be a bad guy.

Red Red Blue posted:Yeah because somebody who can't keep track of characters is going to sift through that giant rear end post full of dumb jokes to remind themselves who everybody is I agree with this guy, jokes are dumb, putting effort into OP's is dumb, content is dumb. Frankly we should stop posting altogether and delete the whole site IMO.

So hey, instead of arguing back and forth about how much scrolling is too much, here's a neat video of GoT actors being contrasted with other roles from the past. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rct8l4_ezJs Some of this I knew, like Osha and Tonks having the same actress, but others were surprising.

I usually just scroll past the OP, but it can be useful. I mean, I'd forgotten how stupid-looking Gendry's beard was. Plus it helps House Potato to live on in our hearts.

I did, however, forget to update Sansa's description since she's no long a hostage. Although actually after that last scene with her and Lysa, I guess it still kind of fits.
