Rolling Stone has an interview with Right Said Fred about this, they describe it as her “interpolating” I’m Too Sexy, whatever that means. But apparently she asked permission, and they are getting compensated.

I’m pretty sure any character who didn’t have their head lopped off is most likely not going to be dead for good.

I mentioned this in another thread - for a show about tits and dragons, this season has been pretty dragon heavy.
A balancing of the scales is due.

My biggest issue is that for a show about tits and dragons, this season has been pretty dragon heavy. A certain HBO CEO has been failing in his job.

And he managed to survive being dunked in freezing water. And then spending hours completely drenched in subzero temperatures.

He did get a mention, though. Sansa said something about how the northern lords would sit around like Ghost, patiently waiting for Jon to come back

It's a nice day for it

I saw it last night. I'd give it a solid B to B+. I liked it, and would recommend it to people who like good characters and ensembles, but I wouldn't rave about it.
There were some great scenes and moments that I'll enjoy on a rewatch on cable, but I found a lot of the narrative a little weak. Some of the twists about…

Definitely Spacely, of Spacely Sprockets. Not to be confused with that bastard Cogswell over a at Cogswell Cogs.

You should look at the bright side. We've been hearing so long about the "Greatest Generation", and really what made them so great was all the Nazi-punching. Now's our chance for a taste of that Greatness!

I think the recent American Gods adaptation has shown that you can do digressive storytelling and don't necessarily have to pare down to just the central storyline. I thought it did the job quite well, and seems to have been well received

Apparently Gendry saw the end of Iron Man

Opening scene this week:
Jamie's perspective as he slowly sinks, the sunlight on the surface fading. A voice, muffled, just on the edge of his hearing.
Suddenly, he's jerked upright out of the water. By Bronn. In thigh-deep water.
"Don't they teach you how to stand up in fancy-lad school?!"

The school part of high school was pretty meh, but I enjoyed those years of my life - zero responsibility and spent my weekends (and more weeknights than I should have) drinking way too much cheap beer and smoking crappy weed.

My first reaction was this was a case where Hanlon's razor comes in to play

It's in the top 5, at any rate.
God I hate that show.

Completely unrelated to this segment…
I once met Ciscoe (the gardening guy), and he was exactly as friendly and funny in person as in all of those clips!

Since Tyrion identified it immediately as a scorpion, they are not new to Westeros

I don't think they leaked, I think they are streaming as a preview on epix. I follow Elmore Leonard's page on Facebook (not sure who does updates since his passing), and they indicated that it's "inspired by" the source material, and compare the relationship to the book/film as similar to Fargo (the tv series) to…

But how long do we give Kelly?
How many times does he get to think he's got an issue in order, only to be completely undercut by a late night Trump-tweet before he can't take it anymore?
I'd set the over-under line at 6 months
