A while back I rented the first season #1 DVD from Netflix and couldn’t get into it at all. I tried again a month or so ago, now completely hooked. Watched the first season and bought the first 5 books and am half way thru the second book.
Last night was good. Any episode without Ramsay Bolton is a pleasure.
However, I find King’s Landing to be rivaling Dorne as far as irrelevance goes. It’s boring and pointless.
I’m worried about Arya’s longterm situation. My feeling is that crossing the Faceless Men is a gambit that might potentially succeed for a time, but not forever.
Edmure Tully is such a total loser that if the folks at Riverrun have any brains, they will kill him at a distance and remove him as a bargaining chip for Walder Frey.
I’m waiting for the three dragons to be reunited.
Was more like it.
I think this has been my favorite Episode since the end of the Season 4.
So Many Good things.
Benjen Stark is back.
I knew Randyll Tarly was a Huge A-Hole, but that was a perfectly awkward family dinner.
The Blackfish is back! Yay!
Now I see where all the budget went they saved by killing off the Dire Wolves, Drogon and a Brief Cameo of Sean Bean ain't cheap kids.
I am confused on the timeline with Margaery though, last we saw her, she was telling Loras to stay strong, now, only a few days later (?) She is properly indoctrinated and has Stockholm Syndrome? Or She is faking it? But she converted Tommen (But then that isn't to hard converting a 15 year old boy with a super hot older woman)
Surprise, Cearsi's Plan didn't work.
Again.
Wow she is such a Bonehead.
The story is racing along at this point, probably because the show is now beyond the books and is not limited by GRRM’s endless layering. That’s not necessarily a good thing; personally I like the books better, though GRRM could use a tougher editor. YMMV. The intrigue of the early books and seasons was the complexity, but the scriptwriters are now simplifying at a breakneck pace. Are they still planning two more seasons after this one? At the current pace, one more would more than suffice.
I have been avoiding these threads due to potential spoilers.
I like to let several episodes pile up and then binge them OnDemand. I am caught up now.
Good season, so far.
I am also binging House of Cards Season 4 since the real election season has kind of cooled down.
I was late to watch the first couple of seasons of GoT, as I didn’t have HBO. I would have to wait for the free preview weekend and binge. Now I subscribe, so I can was the current seasons as they are shown.
Have followed Game of Thrones since day one but now believe it’s a little long in the tooth. I find myself losing interest and impatient for it to end.
