'Get a [bleep]ing life!' Ian McShane slams Game Of Thrones fans for being too obsessed [TR]

He caused a furor last year when he teased plot details about the sixth season of Game Of Thrones.

And now series star Ian McShane has walloped the hornet's nest once more by dragging up the way the fans reacted to it.

Having spoken publicly about storylines including the return of The Hound, and his own character [Brother Ray], fans went into meltdown at the spolier-esque nature of his words.

But a year on and it still bemuses the former Lovejoy star.

series star Ian McShane

Series star??? No, he had a two episode cameo arc, and it was brief. I liked seeing him again; but, he is not one of the series stars.

but good special effects for fight scenes

Battle of the Bastards was fantastic last season. I felt like I was watching a big screen epic movie during the battle scenes.

I don’t think the spousal unit has seen it and she has watched a fair amount of British TV.

We plan on watching it again. It’s easy on the nerves.

Those wet mud turtles are delicious!

“George Martin can keep his unfinished books - we don’t need him anymore.”

Hey, hey, hey, some of us want to read those books! (And if only Gogol hadn’t burned volume II of Dead Souls!).

Since we’re confessing:

I have cable. I don’t like how much it costs, I don’t like any of the programming; what I like is that it adds braodband internet and enables VOIP telephony (Vonage).

I DO NOT WANT SATELLITE.

So, I tell em I use an antenna. Everything I watch comes in free on the antenna, and I have the Blu-Ray for movies I want to see after they’ve left the theaters. “Why would I want to pay for content I’m not going to watch when I can not watch it now for nothing?”

Astute that you could tell that I never watched “Deadwood” either. My wife bought me the complete “Have Gun - Will Travel” which is much better than any modern day socially spun cowboy soap opera.

“...just being about ‘t*ts and dragons’.” Some pretty nice ones I might add...I have to agree. My favorite is the green dragon...

What role is that? I saw the post with a photo, but didn’t see a reference to the movie or show.

Well... give it a shot someday :-).

I can assure you, the words “politically correct” never crossed my mind watching the show.

I've never seen the first episode, and by that - if that needs explaining - I've Never Seen Any Of This Stupid Flavor Of The Moment Money-Trap Bulls***t.

So this McShane has it exactly right: turn this crap off, and instead attend to your family, your country, and your loved ones....

Al Swearingen in Deadwood.

Deadwood is approximately 36, 1 hour TV shows on HBO over 3 seasons.

I watched them all on Amazon over a period of about a month or so.

No western EVER even comes close to Deadwood’s REALISM. It’s truly a march back in time. The language is non stop cursing. Lots of brutal stuff but you get hooked on it. It’s not for certain female watching and NO children at all.
