My money is on Loras, High Sparrow, Tommen, Melisandre, in that order. Possibly zombie Mountain too. Jorah needs to die or get cured already, but probably won't happen this season.

Don't forget, this is the network that greenlit a sitcom about Charlie Sheen as a therapist, for 50+ episodes before it even aired. They like to get drunk at FX, is all I'm saying

Everyone made money on Wuney.

I think Sansa finally figured out the one thing the other Starks couldn't or wouldn't; you can't be noble in a treacherous world. Maybe a ronin like Brienne can, but highborn can't, because the very fundamentals of their lot in life means someone will always be gunning for you, and they won't take the high road to get

So, is this show becoming an allegory for Millenials? Dany's group represents the hopeful optimism without understanding the real difficulties in changing the established order; Yara and Theon represent trying to carve out a little niche for themselves where differences can be embraced (Yara's sexuality, worship of

He had a promising future, possibly even an Oscar, once the right director came along that could harness his innate soulfulness and his talents. Such a tragedy, RIP

"But the vampires are feminist vigilantes who only feed on rapists and abusers. And that’s good. But they want Pearl to turn Leah into one of them, and that’s bad."

The creepy affection Pope has toward Nicky is a problem, but another problem is how Craig reacts to her, and how she reacted to his cocaine; I'm really hoping the game of "Can you catch something in your mouth?" he convinces her to play doesn't foreshadow what I think it does

I can't see how the storylines will all converge (Lily and the boys, and John Clare being the outliers). And at this point, they might not. My original theory last season was Dorian and Lily creating an army of darkness, but now it seems Drac and Vanessa wil fit that bill. The Scooby Gang, no doubt joined later by

I think the biggest reaction of the episode I had was Gary's defeated "Uhhh" sound after the 2nd (or 3rd?) Chinese gift.

I'm worried that everyone seems to be converging on the North and it may end up being too contrived; Jon, Sansa, the Wildings are already there, Brienne and Pod are heading back there, Littlefinger and the Vale knights presumably will be there, but now Varys is going back to Westeros (and he's presumably a wanted man

Yeah that would make sense, but I think they're setting up a siege by ships so the renegade Ironborn can swoop in and save the day

I think it's wildfire, if Cersei can't reclaim the city she's going to burn it all down

Well, she's also in the latest Netflix-only Adam Sandler movie, so maybe don't put her on so high a pedestal. See also: Robin Thicke.

I like where your head is at, but let's get through this weekend before we entertain hope for a sequel. Also, I miss that voice-over guy

I'm getting sick of these critics calling it the World of Warcraft movie: IT'S NOT. Of course it can't compare to "a limitless multiplayer sandbox, because THAT world is highly customizable and built on an entire small library of source material spread across books, comics, in-game patches and expansions and yes, the

Are we heading for a three way brawl? Dracula's army on one side, Vanessa & Friends on another, and Lily's ladies on another? Or will Dracula convince the women to join his side? I think it'd be a bad move, undercutting their cause by joining the ultimate possessive man, even if he's an undead one. The only outlier

Graham McTavish in the Old West is weird as hell. Especially in the same week he returns in Ye Olde Scotland.

The High Sparrow continues to be extra loathsome, tonight throwing off some seriously Duggar vibes - as in "women were only meant to please their husbands and breed. Ya know, for God(s)."

I really have no idea how Sandor gets to the CleganeBowl, but considering he hasn't been privy to the recent events of King's Landing, all he knows is how terrible the Lannisters have been/still are. To him, they are the oppressors of the people. So imagine he strolls into the capitol, with Ray's words about "doing
