The good Lord in his infinite wisdom salted his works so that were gold was, there also you'd find rumor.

I see the AV Club is trying to pry Beaver's commenting love away from Sepinwall.  Pretty transparent, guys, though if someone with the screen-name 'Collation in the Thoroughfare' starts commenting, we'll know it worked.

Not favorite but it deserves a mention: Watchmen.

Best use of the phrase 'throbbing uncircumcised member' since the Sound of Music.

So he's pro-active?

@avclub-d0cf409eb912cc0cc950b41b6d892d07:disqus BB has the market cornered on dread.  GoT wins for excitement.

Trying and failing to do HBO-style promos, also.  Don't mess with the king of clip packages scored to rousing music, AMC.

I would love it if Margaery so thoroughly seduces Joffrey that she turns him into a marginally better person, then still goes through with his murder.

Isn't there a question of if the Jeyne presented to Jaime at the siege of Riverrun is actually her?  Something about his mental description of her and Catelyn's being different.

The Newbies thread might be my favorite board at the AV Club.

The show can do babies or puppies.  Both is starting to get silly.  "And then, on the Unsullied's 12th birthday, they must sodomize an old woman with a broomstick to advance any further."

It's not even close.  Book Shae's just a golddigger.  Show Shae's closer to a real person and further from a stereotype.

Valar Morghulis was the title of last season's finale.

Damn, did it go that deep with the Westerlings?  I don't really remember that bit.

That was the first and last time Joffrey ever said the word 'charitable.'  Jack Gleeson is the king.

Yup.  Lot of strong scenes, especially in King's Landing, Mance is convincing, and if you know what Valar Dohaeris means, they've even got some connective tissue in all the different locations.  A-

Scorpion balls have been sent to all pirates.

It's weird saying anything negative about ol' Poovey, but I'm not a fan of either of them as field agents.  I prefer Pam as an office drone, humping a burrito or bouncing off Cheryl.
