I have found Jon's fight against WW oppression far more interesting than Dany's fight against slaver oppression.

Oooh that's interesting. Because it sets the scene for Cersei NOT being able to be trusted by Tommen who she swore loyalty to right before blabbing to the Small Council.

Brienne might have a go.

Righto. Roll call for Bastardbowl?

I know a few people who've been kidnapped and detained in my line of work. I can fully imagine him being broken like that and it having nothing to do with him being soft. If anything, it's more a testament to Cersei and Maergery that they have mentally remained resilient.

Dorne dream it's over

That smirk was epic. Solidified the speech way back in season who knows, when we discovered that he walks, thinks and fvcks like a 50 year old.

Yeah nah. At the end of the day, the Lannisters are the only ones with balls and a plan. And they don't take no for an answer, such as turning up again to a meeting you're very much not wanted at.

Brothraki

There'll be some kind of dragon battle. They're both impervious to the hostility of dragons it seems.

Sorry, PC what?

Body double. It's in her contract.

Cinder

I just watched the first episode back. The new stuff is really pretty poor in comparison. It's been like the frog in the slowly boiling water. We didn't even realise.

Very Burke and Wills (for the Australians out there). Horrible timing.

And Blackfish

I agree. It would be nice to see the protagonists interacting with their faiths again like in earlier seasons. The whole Faith Militant/Harpies is so ISIS/invasion of Iraq I can't actually decide if it's facile or poignant. And no one I've pointed that out to has actually seen the parallel.

And Little Ned looked like Neil Patrick Harris

The problem is I read the comments, which means nothing is genuinely exciting now, just riding out the big reveal. Remember the days when things were actually shocking? I can only blame myself for being weak and watching that very first R+L=J youtube, followed by the whole GoT wiki.

What kind of brave/dumb does Jon have to be to return alone to Winterfell? What does he hope to do/achieve?
