Hey how about all that talking guys? I thought the talking was really well done in this episode.

OK, but seriously Dany kicked Jorah to the curb!

I think that was the best episode of the series so far, really.

pretty great dialogue from Dolorous Edd (the sourpuss guy on the Wall) per uge (uzhe? uje? i'm trying to shorten "usual")

also pretty important scene with Jorah Mormont leaving Dany (I WONDER WHERE JORAH IS GOING TO GO YOU GUYS)

the Grey Worm / Missandei thing is pretty dumb, could deal without

i loved the 17 minute beetle smashing story, Tyrion  :dubious:

The Theon/Reek stuff is fantastic.

Boltons!  :curse:

Sansa!  :love:

I really thought there was going to be some point to the beetle story and he was going to have figured out why the guy was killing beetles by the end of it, but no.

She had a really good angry face.

I liked the beetle story, mostly because I knew that it was about what the Mountain was going to do to Oberyn.

It was supposed to be an eloquent way of saying some people just kill things and there is no reason it's just in their nature, or something, but it came off as kind of a dumb long story.

TV writer head guy: Ok, George RR Martin gave us a pretty good story line to work with here, but what can we add to really take this episode to the next level?

Other TV writers: More boobs?

Tv writer head guy: Yes, boobs!

It's going to end with Missandei figuring out, one way or another, how much of his "manhood" Grey Worm is left with. It's stupid.

The dialogue and exposition in this show is mostly awesome. It's often better and more interesting than the action - though the fight last night was really well done. Probably the only dialogue I find annoying us the red witch or whatever she's called.

Walking Dead follows a similar action:exposition ratio, except the exposition is boring and lame, which is why that show sucks. Without good dialogue, the fighting in GoT would get boring and repetitive, just like Walking Dead.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Yeah if you don't like the (extremely well-crafted) dialogue you really might as well not watch, because it's admittedly 90% of the show.

Caught up in the entirety of GoT in about 2 weeks.

Not bad, but glad I am watching for free.

Boobs are at least 10% and fighting another 10%.

The boobs usually come with dialogue, though.
