That episode leaned towards being dull.

Wasn't the first scene of Cersei and Jamie talking over their father's body shown immediately after the end of last season?

I believe that was Joffrey's body?

no it was Cersei going to the witch

also, should I jsut assume all spoilers in this thread are book spoilers?

Postby **PFiDC** » Mon Apr 13, 2015 11:42 am

Yes. Usually when a show has its own thread like this (TWD is another) show events do not require spoilers but book events should.

Except if someone has gotten the leaked episodes and spoilers what's in them.

I liked the episode although I was bummed about the ratio of male nudity:female nudity.

Postby **blackjack68** » Mon Apr 13, 2015 12:16 pm

I just kept hearing the South Park GOT theme song every time they showed male nudity.

Re:spoilers... Book spoilers should be marked as such. As far as the show goes, once something airs, spoilers should no longer be required... but if you are going to post potential spoilers about upcoming episodes... those should be spoilered.

So having watched the first episode...I dont mind this being spoilered from people who have watched the other leaked episodes

Did they pull the switch with mance?

Not that was indicated. I read an interview that said its over for his character.

Seems that Although Martin shared his ending with D&D, the story is still "evolving" in his mind and thus the book ending may ultimately end up deviating from that.

1sr episode was blah, 2nd much better and 3rd is also good so far.

And I think we are almost oitnof book spoilers. They are combining and creating storylines to only keep the main characters involved. Which is good.

The only person who I think will have an arc pretty much the same as the book is Jon and maybe Dany to some degree. But everything else so far is turning for the better.

Jon snow. Episode 3. So awesome.

I assume you guys are watching the leaked episodes? I think I will have to avoid until we get to the end of the leakage (lol leakage)

I'm not watching the leaked episodes. And really out of courtesy, comments about said episodes should really be spoilered prior to the episodes airing.

Loved getting to see more of Braavos. The little bit we did get to see of Dorne was pretty nice too. These new locations are going to be most excellent.

I kinda feel like they maybe rushed the whole Lord Commander vote a bit, but that would be my only complaint about the episode.

Daenerys' story line is getting much better. It was pretty stale for a while, but there's actual conflict and adversity

Postby **Spangler** » Mon Apr 20, 2015 2:46 am

Glad to see Jaqen H'ghar back. I can't remember if there's hints at him being there with Arya in the book, since Jaqen H'ghar technically doesn't exist anymore.

When you take into context that the Nights watch in the books is still hundreds or even thousands of men and not 50 or so on the show I can see how it was rushed. The dressing down of Slynt by Sam was great.

We just get to see Dany being dumb over and over again. I don't really like her in the show at all.

Yeah I'm trying to get into the Daenerys storyline, but still blah to me. The Jamie/Bronn expedition to Dorne (which wasn't in the books) should be an entertaining plot line, I think. So far, I have liked the deviations from the books. I think the continued presence of Kevan Lannister could make things interesting for Cersei, although he did say he was going back to Casterly Rock.
