    khaleesi freeing slaves is literally the least compelling plot line ever created.

    oh and peter / sansa / the eyrie is going to give it a run for its money.

    i know ive said it before but this is EXACTLY where the books fell apart completely; he burnt 80% of the interesting plot lines and had to cycle in endless bullshit politics and emotional turmoil featuring a collection of new characters whose only purpose is replace the dead ones. badly.

    i am about 99% sure i know exactly where this season is going to end and the next one starts, and i can honestly say that its going to get so, so much worse next season too.

    in before lannister has a full blown aspie meltdown and rushes to the shows defense.

    Chinas and Willies suggestions are light years beyond anything George RR Martin has brought to the table since book 2.

    Sometimes I feel like I must be watching a different show than you Mr. Tine. I will say though, Teriann needs to get back to banging hookers. I thought this last episode was above average for the show. We will re-evaluate in 2 weeks. I feel like I'm trying not to like it because the internet says so, and I can't dislike it.

    After watching a bunch of these limited run series, it's like they all start way strong, peter off until episode 5 where shit invariably hits the fan, then coast till about 2 ep's from the end and then finish epic. There are ep arcs and there are season arcs. I do feel that a lot of these shows don't know their season commitment before the very end so they're trying to write 9 eps and end up having to write 12-14. That extra 3 or so eps is a fuck ton of work.

    This sucks but was to be expected. I read the first book and was promptly told by several people to stop reading if I liked the show. Plus JSearles mentioned reading and liking the books.

    The show will still be good as the acting is strong even with weak story lines.

    Let's be honest, it's been good so far but a lot of the arcs are horrible. GoT apologists/fanboys are quickly becoming the worst thing ever.

    Honestly, you're not wrong, neither is Drk. The show is goodish. Still. Its better than most other things.

    But it used to be great. I play candy crush during it now. I check email.

    Such things were inconceivable once.
