Just a point of order... but time to split thread with a TV only - no spoilers or spoiler tags thread?

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something. We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

I think you mean the books, assuming I didn't just fall into a sarchasm. (Yeah, I probably did.) This was a great episode. I won't spoil anything but I particularly enjoyed the sword fight and Jamie's talk with Brienne. Oh, and Ygritte and Jon! |

Yeah, great episode. The Shireen/Patchface song from the credits: It's always summer
Under the sea
I know, I know
Oh, oh, oh
The birds have scales
And the fish take wing
I know, I know
Oh, oh, oh
The rain is dry
And the snow falls up
I know, I know
Oh, oh, oh
The stones crack open
The water burns
The shadows come to dance
My lord
The shadows come
To play
The shadows come to dance
My lord
The shadows come
To stay |

Brienne's was rather impressive. I know we aren't allowed to talk about the show in this thread anymore, so I will just say: weeeeeeeee.
I think people just want to keep book spoilers out of this thread. I think we've tried this before and it failed. I don't care, personally, but I have read the books. I don't know if this was a mod edict or not.  |

Actually i think this thread is irredeemable for non book readers at this point and a new no spoilers thread should be started, but what do i know.

I bumped the book thread as I like the prophecies discussion and I suspect people will just dive into the most active tv thread, in 5 episodes that will be the one with spoilers. But I don't mind either way, I'll post in them all.

I'd be happy if this thread stuck to discussing differences with the books, but only up to events that have occurred in the show so far.

Very good episode. The scene with Jamie and Brienne was just fantastic. He nailed that scene and to me, made that scene more important than it was in the book. It just had a lot more weight to it. Same goes for the fight between the Hound and Lord Beric. In the book it sort of happened but didn't elicit much of an emotional reaction. The TV fight was MUCH better. It had real emotional OOMMPH.
Was it just me or did the books have Tywin trying to

The problem is that since the show isn't strictly following the book timeline, when they start discussing the meaning of events that were moved from the future into the show's present, all the context is spoiler material. --Dave |

I agree with this and have started such a thread. My guess is that nobody will post in it, thus ensuring that it remains blissfully free of spoilers.  |

Another good episode. Lots of plot twists! I liked Robb's decision, he's actually turning into a not-boring character. As for Dragonstone? It's a big castle where joy was strangled in it's crib. Good old Stannis, loving husband, kindly father! Another good scene with the another loving family, the Lannisters. Cersei was all  then she was all  Episode should have been called Hot Tub Confessions! Nice bums all around! |
