I picked up season one on blu-ray. Listening to Sophie, Maisie and Isaac sing the theme song on the commentary track had me howling. That alone made it worth the purchase.

Season 2 has them doing that again in a different style. It's even better, if that's possible.

gently caress, so this dude ISN'T Mance Rayder? I'm really bad at this show. I also genuinely thought Locke was a new character when he showed up at the wall until after the episode he died when it was pointed out he was the dude that cut Jaime's hand off, and was working for Roose Bolton. Sometimes theres just too many characters to keep track of, and by sometimes I mean all the time.

I honestly can't blame you in this instance. Aside from Ygritte, the show has done a really bad job getting you to know and care about the characters beyond the Wall. I don't know why they decided to so barely focus on that plotline but it's a real pity.

Meanwhile, Conradin made himself another piece of toazzzzzzt.
So now that Oberyn is gone, who do you think Tywin will put on the Small Council in his place?

It's currently Tywin, Cersei, Varys, Pycelle and Mace Tyrell, right? Is Littlefinger on it, but on holiday or something? Did he have a legitimate excuse for not being at Joffrey's wedding or Tommen's coronation?

Tywin putting Oberyn on it was clearly a sop to Dorne, but I don't know how keen they'll be to send another Prince of Dorne up. If I were Tywin I wouldn't want to fill it with too many Tyrells (so I guess Loras is out.) I can't think of many more viable candidates - as fun as Bronn would be up there.

Who is the current Master of Coin now that Tyrion's left? I know Tywin was talking to Cersei about the lack of gold under Casterley Rock, but is he also the one hiding the angry red letters from the Iron Bank telling him that his loan is still outstanding?

Littlefinger is still officially on his mission to marry Lysa Arryn and bring the Vale into the Lannister fold. We know that he has other plans (or so he said to the other Lords of the Vale :tinfoil:), but as far as Tywin and co know, he's still working for them.

As annoying as my long rear end character guide is, posts like this are why I'm content with keeping it and why I've been hesitant to prune it of the Kevan Lannisters and Kovarros of the show (although I have reluctantly been removing a couple each week, sorry you're not gonna be hanging around anymore, random Frey dudes).

"Two parter" as in there's one more episode after this week. But no, it's not going to be wall-to-wall coverage of Jon's antics for the next two weeks.

The Master of Coin position is currently vacant, I think. It's traditionally King (Queen Regent Cersei), Hand (Ned-Tyrion-Tywin), Whispers (Varys), Grand Maester (Pycelle), Ships (Stannis-Mace lol), Lord Commander of the Kingsguard/Wildcard (Robert didn't trust Selmy so this was Renly-vacant-Oberyn) and Coin was Baelish then Tyrion.

Ironically, Kevan Lannister or one of the tolerable Freys would be logical choices, to me. The Freys are rich from tolling their bridge, and Tywin could make a big show of hearing the truth from whatever Frey lacky he picks, publicly punish Walder, and then install the "honorable" Frey in his place.

Yeah, it's kinda lacking there. They cast a heavyweight like Ciaran Hinds as Mance but he popped up like what, three times? With maybe a dozen lines in total?

I really hope that they let her run into Sansa. Like Sansa's going out for a ride with Pete and Robin and Arya's literally stuck at the gates that they'll all need to ride through in order to get anywhere. And all the knights guarding the gate would be loving idiots for letting her just go on her way without telling Pete about it first.

And I hope Tyrion axes Shae in the vagina as they flee.

I feel kind of weird about tonight's episode. As far as I can tell, there are only three characters we're supposed to care about (Jon, Sam, Ygritte) taking part in the entire episode. Ygritte has had her story arc (potentially) completed by killing potato dad, but letting Gilly leave, so I can see her dying. Sam could get a good death, I guess. I don't think Jon can die. I'm not sure exactly what is hanging in the balance.

I vaguely remember this now. The problem is that that happened over a year ago at this point and we haven't seen the real Mance since. The show then compounds this problem because every time they mention "Mance Rayder's army is coming" in promos, intro reminder scenes, or even directly in the show, they cut to Tormund walking around being all angry.

I learned which actor was playing Mance Rayder on the show last week in the character guide from this thread. I felt embarrassed but now that everyone else (EVERYONE ELSE BETTER ADMIT TO IT) I don't feel so bad.
