No.

2005-2013 Dr. Who (I haven't seen the Peter Capaldi version yet and I likely won't). I'm always optimistic at the opening title sequence and then rarely make it to the end of an episode awake. I will admit that the writing is generally good but its reliance on nostalgia and awful campy production values loses me every

Same. I would've liked to have seen something closer to the original black comedy version he had planned, where we see what really happened when he grew up (or didn't, as the case may be) after Big Adventure. Alternately, maybe even a dramedy series with Paul Ruebens playing an only slightly fictionalized version of

This entire brouhaha is being so poorly written about. Besides the substantive bias issue, one thing I just want to scream is that this is not something that really even matters to Facebook. It's not an attempt to manually impact their core edge rank algorithm (or whatever they call it now). It's more or less a beta

"Its just like they're only using him so they can have flashbacks without actually having them be flashbacks."

Good question. (Non-spoiler book element:) It is said that he doesn't need to eat or drink.

…"during the Battle of the Whispering Wood, Grey Wind killed a dozen men and as many horses." They knew better than to let Grey Wind get up in the mix.

I've opined about this elsewhere but, YES. The two opening scenes where he woke up and then walked out were about as anticlimactic as they possible could've been. Such a missed opportunity for dramatic reactions all around.

Littlefinger and Sansa confirm this to Roose when they meet.

I'm joking since they will likely post another one before I finish typing.

I think you're likely right, but don't forget that the show modified at least part of his arc as Brienne is the one who effectively "killed" him when the traveling duos crossed paths.

Can we please cast this version of Thom as another one of the Greyjoys? He is beyond perfect.

That was some time ago. Just because he commented on his comments and Facebook tells me that's important doesn't mean it's actually breaking news.

Especially when they're not even c-level reddit theories. I wish entertainment journalists would attempt to vet information more like news. They don't need to spoil plot elements, but they should at least research whether there is a spoiler that contradicts what they publish before they do so.

I don't think that matters per se. I mean, Sean Bean was only really in 10 episodes. Jonathan Pryce has already been in 8 (counting this coming episode). There are several major characters who were in the same or less: Robert, Oberyn, Renly, Mance, etc. I could see him being removed from power but not dying right away

If by heir you mean effective ruler, yes. If by heir you mean heir, no.

There is a bit more to it than that (on a few fronts) but, as far as the show is concerned, I agree that it's beyond straining credulity at this point. Me thinks it's imminent, though.

I would be surprised if we saw Euron reappear now (let alone kill his brother) only to not win the throne. Also, I am not sure how quickly a Kingsmoot takes place vis-a-vis Theon on a horse traveling from The North, but I presume that he won't be there for it.

Not sure about those analogies since they aren't at all similar personalities with similar motivations. I mean, Alliser has always been just a dick. He was set up as the anti-Jon at Castle Black from the outset and everything he's done, or not done, at The Wall has reinforced this. Ellaria just has a different world
