Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they introduce her in the last scene of the next premiere, and introduce that Frey early in the episode as if (to non-book readers) he's going to be an important new character.

"when TWOW is hopefully out"

Mt. Eerie is more notable than The Microphones?

"The possibility never occurred to me when I read the books"

If you're seriously concerned about being spoiled about this show, maybe just operate under the assumption that any ambiguously headlined news article about the show will possibly contain spoilers and don't read them?

Seriously, with the title of the article, first sentence of the article, and first mention of "Lady Stoneheart," at the very least you had multiple strong implications there would be spoilers. Why would you continue reading?

I feel like there's gotta be some kind of Oberlin/Oberyn joke you could have made.

No lamprey pie, no deal.

You missed the infamous Red Wedding!

Are they, though?

Yes, there are several phenomenal episodes on this list, but I can't foresee any outcome other than Ozymandias handily beating everything it goes up against.

Pancakes, Divorce, Pancakes is one of the best episodes of television so far this year, but so is Rixty Minutes AND I was just a tad disappointed when I found out Review isn't an original Andy Daly creation, but a remake of an Australian show.

Yet another Adult Swim cartoon based on lazy misanthropy with paper-thin characters acting out "OMG so random" non-sequitir plots written by stoners for stoners?

Can't wait to watch this. The 1st series was basically a very funny The Office: Church Edition. The 2nd series found its own unique voice and was better in every way. Glad to hear this apparently maintains (maybe tops?) that greatness.

Jeez, that's harsh. No, Martin isn't exactly Faulkner or Chaucer, but there's an awful lot to pick apart in this book series and it has interesting things to say about our world and the people in it. I'd say it's on par with something, like, say, Dune. If you can really blow off all 5000+ pages of the series and 40+…

Thom P. Tiers
Taumpy Tears
etc

Eh, I think if you were to count up all the significant characters in the series so far, the absolute unrepentant, irredeemable monsters make up something like 8%.

This is really fantastic. Why you gotta be such a nutter in the newbie section week to week?

Tarantino mixes both kinds of presentation from film to film, and even sometimes in the same film. Django especially had fairly equal amounts of cartoony and fun violence and realistic and hard to watch violence.

Everyone's a critic!
