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

[Dub]

The hound is dead

Presumably dead.

[star seed 7]

Just like stannis, right? 

[AppleJack]

Who would win, zombie Mountain or Wun Wun?

[star seed 7]

Wun Wun

[asava]

Win for Wun Wun.

[mocat]

why would they not show stannis actually dying?

[asava]

I thought the same thing, but there is just no way Brienne wouldn't kill him.

[TownieCat]

Why on earth would anyone want known loser Stannis Baratheon back the picture?
With the shake ups to the Greyjoys and Bolton last night, now every family has lost their family leader since the series began except the Tyrells. Lady Olenna just keeps on ticking!

[HerrSonntag]

Wun Wun and it's not even close. ^^^

[WildcatNkilt]

I would really rather binge watch GoTs.  I just can't do it because I don't think I would be able to avoid spoilers from friends, colleagues, and the internet.

Frey still ticking?

I guess. But he hasn't been seen since season 3.

[WildcatNkilt]

I would love to see Arya go crazy on the Freys.

Frey is gonna probably do something pretty soon considering Ramsey killed his grandson.

The Arya storyline is the only intriguing part of S6 so far. Everything else is just puzzle pieces falling into place, but I have no idea what she's being set up to do.

My best guess is she will assassinate either Ramsay or The Warrior Formerly Known As The Mountain (or both).

Not really sure how you can be sure what the hell role Bran will be set to do and what impact he may have on Westeros. He's obviously the most powerful Stark still alive and I doubt he will only serve to give us flashbacks.

Well one of them did just come back to life....

Presumably due to the Red God, not because of his own power. Outside of brooding looks and being entirely too sensitive and nice to Sam, what "power" can you really attribute to Jon Snow. Obvz he could be a dragon rider/targaryan/savior of westeros, but at present, Bran is just warging with little giants, time traveling, and, presumably, watching the entire world.

I think Jon has warging abilities also. He might have been inside of Ghost this whole time.

Which of those easily understood sentences is confusing?

The one which relies on zero evidence.

He has them in the books, but he doesn't have them on the show.

[asava]

Pretty sure the title of this thread pretty clearly states why we are all here.

[Mrs. Gooch]

Says who? Just cause you haven't seen proof of it yet doesn't mean it didn't happen.

This has nothing to do with the books at this point.

JS hasn't once warged with Ghost in the show. His eyes didn't glaze over like Orell's did when he died. And, unlike in the books, he didn't say "Ghost" as he was dying.



Not saying it couldn't have happened, it would just be very odd for the show to all of a sudden spring that on the viewers without the least bit of hint. The show has been extremely good at foreshadowing and leaving clues.

[catastrophe]

I mean, it doesn't matter at all to the plot right now whether Snow was warging it up during his death or not. So why would they bother adding that factoid in?

[catastrophe]

If anything it would make things worse from a plot perspective. "So you were controlling Ghost the whole time and all you did was lay there?"

[Canary]

I binged on the first five seasons. Finally saw the first two of the new season this evening. Glad I'm watching and can now read this thread with a bit of background.
