The thing is if he died Sunday he’d have been replaced by someone less hated and the democrats’s chances in November would become far worse.

Folks need to learn they don’t have to express every thought in their head. A lot of people feel like Gass but you just can’t say so.

Hard end seems a bit extreme  I wonder if they already had some issues going on behind the scenes?

Soon everything will be coming up Sheepstealer!

Sunfyre going offscreen feels all kinds of wrong, especially as we had so much finality with Meleys (she exploded on impact and they somehow got hold of her head, too).

I’m aware of that, but the article uses the capital C.

You will find him outside of Panucci’s Pizza.

That was Baela! They really don't make it easy to keep these names straight, lol

The Freys are notorious fence-sitters in the main series, so George playfully inverts that in Fire and Blood, having them declare for Rhaenyra almost immediately and participate in the very first battle of the war. Contrast this with the Starks, who sit on their hands for almost the entire war despite being so…

Finally getting to the Dragonseeds! That should be fun, even if there’s only three more episodes for them to take flight. We’ll also be seeing one or more of the Sea Snake’s bastards pop up in the next episode, I’ll bet. 

Ser Rat-Catching Terrier was sent to live at a nice farm upstate

So that rat catching dog was still hanging out by his master’s rotting body in King’s Landing. I need this season to end with him being adopted by someone and living out his days peacefully running around the golden fields of The Reach because he’s the goodest boy.

I’m annoyed with myself for being that person, but this new motivation of Daemon’s is off-book, likely invented to make up for the fact that the interesting parts in his backstory don’t overlap with the timing of the war.

I don’t believe either HOTD or GOT mentioned this, but in the books it’s stated that while a dragon can have multiple riders in its lifetime, a dragonrider only has one mount their entire life- that’s why Viserys never took a second mount despite Balerion dying when he was relatively young. Aegon can't take a second…

And a role that’s pretty much the only part of the story that the show is absolutely locked into, after Joffrey told the whole thing to Margaery back on GOT.

The Citadel is the place in Oldtown that the maesters are based out of.

I assumed Cole only thought Sunfyre was doomed and was saying they left him to die because he was taking too long. Could be wrong though.

I would assume that Corlys would want revenge for his wife and this would strengthen his resolve.

“her dragon explodes on impact with the ground, wiping out almost the entirety of Criston’s ill gotten army”

What are you talking about? Her dragon fell on the walls of Rook’s Rest, which is actually a positive for Cole’s army. You can leater her Ser Gwayne shouting “Into the Breach”, the breach that was created by the…

“I wonder if she knows that Cole and Rhaenyra had their own regrettable night of passion once upon a time.”
