Drawn by Bancsei.

I think it's much more likely that Cersei just dispatches someone new to take over. Succession in such a vital spot seems like something that the queen would be concerned about. Back into the hole with Edmure, unless he gets made into a Lannister puppet. Or killed.

Just because she's running errands doesn't mean that she's a servant. She could easily be the daughter of someone powerful (but not necessarily a main character) who attends the queen. Queens would have been surrounded by ladys-in-waiting and all kinds of other high-born henchmen.

He probably has one that he rides around on his ship.

That would be cool, wouldn't it? A good miniseries.

"I know him better than anyone else here" says Sansa of Tyrion. Would it be worth mentioning to anybody that they're married? Aren't they?

Maybe the meeting will serve as a different kind of inspiration? A wolf can be a wolf within the pack. Instead of a single-minded series of revenge killings, maybe she will continue her assassinations in service of a greater Stark strategy?

There's a study by a sociologist called "American Heathens." Might be worth a look.

That's the nice thing about film. You can watch it however you want. If what you're getting out of this is some insight into the lives of people living in a fictional town in Washington state, more power to you. I'm sure that Mark Frost is glad for the name check too.

Of course there is. I don't mean that literally—that there is a gray bearded, one-eyed guy that looks like Ian McShane or Anthony Hopkins or Ian McKellen hanging around in cheap motels. I mean Odin as an object of belief and representation, practices that treat him like a subject—like a godlike being that is out there…

I think he limps pretty regularly. I noticed it when they were walking down the street, and when they are drinking in his study, you can see him limp as he turns and walks away from Odin.

What I mean is that, in the world outside the novel, those links are already there. I'm willing to give Gaiman a pass on the way he ignored the deal that Odin and his kids made with Media in the 60s, although I would have loved to see Jack Kirby and Stan Lee represented in one of the opening "coming to America"…

I can see the larger patterns that make it compelling to use Vulcan as a god that has linked himself up to war and destruction in order to remain viable. However, I've been wondering if the show will ever address that established links between (representations of) Odin and white supremacy movements. This might not…

In some ways, I think that there is a parallel between what American Gods is doing and what's happening with the new Twin Peaks. You're seeing two auteurs having the forum, the time and the money to create what they want to create. Everybody knows that David Lynch is fairly uninterested in traditional narrative, and…

They really stuck the landing. I can't believe how much this show has grown and developed over the past couple of years. Agreed, the pacing felt a bit rushed at times, but there was a lot of ground to cover in an hour long episode. I hope that there's some time next season to deal with everything that was lost in the…

I feel like that with dialog. Just give me a summary and get on to the credits. Or the fishing scenes.

It's the featherweightl LMD Mack.

I saw Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon at a pre-release screening with Ang Lee and James Schamus. A long-time fan of wuxia, I wondered what Lee would do with the genre. It was breathtaking. It's been a while since I've seen it, but I'm going to have to make time for it soon.

Is Triton still around?

Yeah, I think that painfulness is what would sell it.
