Game of Thrones SHOW thread for people who are confused by the book thread

[star seed 7]

I really can't believe that Jon & Sansa got reunited. They haven't seen each other since the first episode!

They've never even talked to each other in the show, so weird

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

This show marked a turning point in the season. After the first three episodes went at breakneck pace and provided a very satisfying answer to the Season 5 cliffhanger, this episode significantly slowed down. I don't mind that, per se, but whereas similar "reset" episodes in the past have been driven by great dialogue and intrigue, this one just didn't have it. It was really kinda crappy. No sand snakes, at least.

The Mereen and Kings Landing stuff is getting tedious. The one character that significantly advanced in this episode was Dany, but she's my least favorite of the main characters. The scene also felt a little campy.

The meeting between Davos and Breanne felt perfunctory. The Stark reunion was great for the first few moments, but felt sterile as soon as they started talking.

Question: so did Mormont and Dario pour oil or something on the floor, or did they just bar the doors? I'm trying to figure out if Dany has some kind of built-in magic flamethrower.

Also, it seems like time is advancing by weeks and months in all the storylines except for Kings Landing, where Cersei's trial continues to be "a few days away."

I think there was oil in those fire holder things that Dany pushed over, so it spread out over the floor when she pushed them over.

[Mrs. Gooch]

Did you guys see the new red priestess in the preview for next week? I wonder if she is 400 years old also.

The timelines have always been all over the place

[Mrs. Gooch]

The timelines have always been all over the place

What do you mean? Like, the time it took Arya to "master" blind fighting was the same amount of time it took Cersei to have a single conversation?

well for example this new puberty-era robert arryn is not merely months removed from breastfeeding.

ksuw hating Dany has got to be related to lena dunham somehow

he breast fed quite a while.

Yeah, he was like 12 when he quit breastfeeding (by way of his mother dying).

yeah when he was like 10. now it looks like he has a Vale learner's permit

I think that would translate more to lena dunham impersonator Yara greyjoy

[Cire]

she's too strong/independent for his likes

[star seed 7]

@tobias for the lena dunham talk

[Tobias]

I'm definitely in now

you don't seem like you would be very fun to watch tv with.

Oh, look, Ramsay Bolton is still completely dominating Westeros.

[Mrs. Gooch]

Oh, look, Ramsay Bolton is still completely dominating Westeros.

I am hopeful that Jon & Sansa are going to put an end to that. I am afraid that Rickon is going to be killed in from of them first though.

[Cire]

How many soldiers is the Giant Worth?

Probably quite a few.  Hopefully he can wreck shlt when the time comes an dthe bannermen turn on Ramsay

[Mrs. Gooch]

How good do you think the giant will be at handling a pack of dogs? Can he just throw them all off or are they going to latch on and tear him up?

[OK_Cat]

I don't understand how someone could not like a woman that is literally unable to be burned and has dragon children.

I have no emotional attachment to Rickon since he has been completely absent for so long.

Well I still don't want Jon & Sansa to have to watch their brother get killed.

Well pretty much all of the kids have aged more than the actual timeline would allow. Rickon and Bran have definitely aged more than a few months.

I think Applejack and Tobias should be the only ones allowed to post in here.
