I don't understand your need for the show to deliver answers soon… They're setting up an immersive world that they plan to unveil over multiple seasons. This is not an episode of Law & Order which wraps everything up tidily once a week. We're 4 episodes deep. Let it breathe.

Perhaps the best semi-unknown there is! I think he likes a bit of anonymity, but he's a monster, and even more so live!

I know the whole idea of the spinoff was to be different from The Walking Dead, but that have to include the writing quality? So many lazy choices that betray common sense and/or the characters' motivations…

TV shows don't necessarily happen chronologically and there are gaps of time we don't see that are implied. Storylines are occurring concurrently and the idea is that they show us the interesting parts of each and thread them together into the larger narrative.

I would say he was left out of the battle because in the chaos, while he could take out several men, he could also be easily killed by men in numbers with spears. Ghost is best as a personal protector.

I think maybe just the pure insanity of it. Part of the reason he killed the king was because he learned of his wildfire plans. Also, as devious as Cersei is, it is not portrayed in the show at least that Jaime is privy to just how scheming she truly is. And yes, I was thinking that perhaps Tommen is a victim as well.

I think they're making Jaime restate his deep renewed love for Cersei so he can have an even stronger reaction of repulsion for her when she burns The Faith with wildfire.

I only care about Wendy.

The black and white cut to commercial is an NCIS motif, except they also go to a still frame. The pilot was uneven, but a lot of shows are… I'll stick with it for a while.
