The point is, there WAS no palpable sexual tension. It was JUST tell, no show.

I might have been rooting more for Dany if I had known a single other name of a person on her "side" in that battle. The Dothraki have been weirdly sidelined so far to all of a sudden become her only relevant force. I'm skeptical of them for a lot of reasons: Can we really believe they have changed their way of life…

Ha, blondes usually need to touch in their roots every 6-8 weeks.

Right? Has boggled me the entire show, when is she re-bleaching her hair while on the run from who knows what…

It has always boggled my mind, though, that her roots have never gotten longer throughout the run of the show. they really didn't know where they were going when they started this show…

maybe so, but Jojen was a greenseer, so he knew that Bran had to meet the 3ER. So he bossed him into his destiny

I also got this sense from the direction of the scene that somehow the visions he gets when touching a heart tree are different than when he wargs on his own - like warging sees the present, but the heart trees show him the past? And he was sitting right near a heart tree and is kind of addicted to it. the 3ER did…

Or maybe you lack the imagination to understand the difference between the psychological pain of being raped and the physical pain of all the things you described?

two and a half, really. she tolerated Mace.

Fuel. We are where we are because of coal, and then oil.

I learned that Sam is the only one there humble enough to assume the books might be worth reading.

i was really hoping the wine was poisoned before jaime got there. they set us up for that: 1, we know olenna poisoned joffrey's wine, but jaime does not. 2. every shot of her included the wine glasses, which jamie poured from a carafe that was waiting for him. she did not drink. at the same time, i would have been…

but cercei didnt know that would be appropriate. she thinks tyrion did joff in

But, we saw the tree cave destroyed… how does (eventually) old bran get back in time to be there to meet his future/past self?

I think probably the entire journey… also, did Meera pull him all the way from the Wall? Or did they have a horse, finally, for gods' sake?

Bran was a complete brat. He could never handle it when others were better at things than he was (like Arya and archery) and once he was paralyzed, he kept saying he wished he was dead, He bossed Hodor and Osha, and the Reeds around, he was a jerk the whole time with the 3ER, and now he's just a more imperious jerk.

why would he say he was sorry it had to happen to her, and that it had to happen in their home?

true.

couple points: Dany doesn't give the speech listing her titles; Missandei does. It was Davos' place to give the introduction, but he didn't know what to say.
Second point: Jon isn't saying that he is good at/doesnt like doing diplomacy. he is good at/doesn't like killing. That's been said explicitly before.
