Years and years ago, when Ron Moore was in the career wasteland between Star Trek and NuBSG he gave a pretty long and candid interview about his time on Star Trek. And he was pretty grateful and happy for his time on the franchise, but he goes off on everything wrong about Voyager and how it basically led to his…

Waaaaay too soon.

Yeah, it's crazy.

GRRM has said that in his mind the throne room is Westminster Abbey big. The only way we'd get that is if HBO did indeed give him the budget of a Peter Jackson movie every episode.

I think there's generally a feeling that the Reach has numbers but they're spoiled and soft. The Knights of Summer, as Cat said. They love the pageantry and the banners, but they haven't been tested. Hell, even their climate coddles them. And Mace Tyrell doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, especially since all he did…

Wrong on both counts. 'Twas an axe.

*sigh* the wights/white walker nightmare strikes again. That's the problem when wight and white are pronounced exactly the same.

So Dany had to be around 18 when it started, right? Definitely born during the Rebellion, but at the very end, right before Dragonstone fell.

I imagine the Service would probably frown on someone in close proximity to the Veep (and probably POTUS) carrying a folding knife.

Yeah, and I can't believe Liberace was gay. I mean, women loved him! I didn't see that one coming.

I'm cool with everything except for Sam LEAVING THE GODDAMN DAGGER THAT KILLS OTHERS DEAD IN THEIR TRACKS ON THE GODDAMN GROUND.

The most popular guess is Episode 4, which is GRRM's episode for the season. I could see it sooner. It can't be episode 1, because those are reserved for setting the table. Besides which, we need time to introduce the Red Viper.

@mytly That and the episode is titled Mysha, which is an obvious reference to Dany's story, but Mysha means "mother", and sticking Stoneheart here is an obvious play on that, too.

It's definitely happening. And that's not a prediction. Extras talk.

Yeah, HBO finally realized that airing the biggest episode of its most popular series fall on one of America's biggest holiday weekends was a bad idea.

Honest question: Who else went "MAWWWWIAAAAAAGE" upon seeing the High Septon?

No Battle of Castle Black this season.

So are we officially doing a "Days Since GOT Cock" thing? Is there a web page or something?

It's allright casting, because no one likes Daario anyway (except for Dany. *sigh*.)

I could have sworn that the casting notes for Daario pretty much demanded they wanted a non-Caucasian.
