Anna Paquin
has never been hotter. I still very much enjoy her as Sookie. Her performance and character is what drew me to this show. I'm really enjoying this season, except Jason and Andy. But for the rest of the show, the stakes *feel* high. I don't think Ball would kill anyone, but it's much more fun this year.

Thanks for answering my questions. And thanks for your thoughts all season long. Excited for next year!

Emilia Clarke
is freaking amazing. She was utterly breathtaking.

I could seriously listen to these people talk all day long. The writing is very strong, and the acting is extraordinary. It's really hard to pick a standout, but I'd say Peter Dinklage, Emilia Clarke, Sean Bean, Mark Addy, Maisie Williams, Lena Headey, and Kit Harington. I know and love these characters…

I really love Daenerys, I'm pleased Clarke is getting so much acclaim. She is my favorite character, tied with Tyrion, Jon Snow, and Arya.

yay
Thanks VanDerWerff for the great review. I'm glad you're covering this show.

Yay
I didn't watch the whole episode yet because all I could think about was the new Game of Thrones trailer. I'm glad this show is back and that you're covering it.

good
I definitely liked "Lights Out". But it probably helps that I have never seen Rocky or any other boxing movie. It's better than Justified. I'm glad you're covering it Todd.
