Ugh, you’re probably right. I’m hoping that Jaime’s redemption makes him more of the sacrificial (lion) lamb, but I’m no idiot about this show. 

You know they made you happy for her just so that her death will be EXTRA painful.

There needs to be a “ Three Eyed Ravens for Dummies book”

I don’t know if that’s Podrick’s real voice, but it was excellent. Also, Gwendoline Christie is incredible, and finally seeing her smile was my favorite part of the whole series. That scene was so patient, I’m glad that she got to really put the character through the entirety of her emotions. God I hope that doesn’t…

“Well, calling you fucked wouldn’t be strictly accurate.” I literally choked on my food and almost died.

God, Daniel Portman singing “Jenny’s Song” fucking WRECKED me. His voice is just beautiful, and that was such a nice shoutout to book readers that didn’t feel pandering. Tears just started immediately.

My reaction to seeing Arya get naked:

I’d wager this search term just rocketed to the top of Google’s list:

I’m all for hot and heavy boning on TV, but for god’s sake, watching Arya was like watching your sister. The ick factor was off the charts.

Of course! Then within 15 minutes of airing the finale, GRRM’s agent will publicly issue a statement saying that there are no plans to publish The Winds of Winter or A Dream of Spring until 2074.

Grey Worm might as well have announced he was retiring and had just bought a boat.

greyworm is for sure dead. i’m thinking missandei as well. brienne and tormund as well.

He’s for sure gonna die. I have a feeling Brienne is a goner too after that teary knighting ceremony.

I realize there’s something deeply wrong with me that I’m more comfortable watching Arya display sociopathic tendencies and murder people than I am watching her have sex. Or maybe it just makes me American.

Anyone wishing Khal Drogo will make one last appearance even as a super sexy, frozen Dothraki? Klondike Drogo? No? Just me?  

So Grey Worm’s pretty much fucked right. He’s like every trope walking now with that long “what do you want to do when we survive this godforsaken war” right before they go over the top speech...

Think Jon probably should have sat on that information until after the battle.

I re-watched this last night, and it was just mind-bending how destructive he was to the Beast. Any other episode the Beast looks nearly invincible, but this guy makes him look like a rejected contestant from Wheel of Fortune.

Only tangentially related but Ken Jennings has a delightful podcast with John Roderick called The Omnibus that I heartily recommend. The show is framed as if it was something of a time capsule for the far future to explain our lives today. Each episode is dedicated to the discussion of a different random bit of trivia…
