Was it a death sentence? I didn't remember that part.

She was playing the long game. The problem was that while Margaery usually had Cersei's number, she underestimated (as did I) just how desperate and irrational Cersei could become when put in a corner. On its face the trial - with her son as the king - was likely not perceived as being as perilous a situation as…

I love Margaery but she could never have gotten far enough away. The explosion took out most of the surrounding area for streets upon streets, probably miles.

Senseless violence is what would always have begun to happen as this story reaches its close.

I didn't say it wasn't a strength. But I don't think this season's acceleration has been a weakness either.

What House?

It's not complicated. He's allying forces for Daenerys, who has always been his planned liege since he was conspiring with folks in S1 and 2.

They've been taking things slow for years. Eventually slow stops.

The problem with this complaint is that we've had all of that before, over the course of five prior seasons - we've seen the minutiae of people's lives play out, we've seen their inner worlds even when the fans (and often the reviewers) claim it's 'filler'.

I think he is too, to be honest. He's got that Jorah fever.

If this is seriously not the episode Sapochnik submitted for the Emmy I am stunned. It was masterful work. A lot of GOT helmers have gone on to try their hand at movies (Alan Taylor bombed out) but this shows a whole other level beyond big action for Sapochnik and it was unbelievable.

B+???? HOW SWAY??

God, not again.

I did not bother with the original but Mike Flanagan sells this for me. And it looks nuts.

It's better, he said 24 days later.

This show is peak/nadir Crowe.

This was literally an even more inane Gawker article a day ago.

We really do.

That does look fun, but just because it's so nutty. And a different demographic.

It's true!
