A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

(It's not for nothing she played Sarah Conner.)

t headslap I can't believe I didn't recognize her until you said that. I just went back and watched a scene with her and slapped my head a few more times.

Also, as someone who *hasn't* read the books, I'm finding it really hard to keep all the characters and their names and their histories straight. It's very confusing!

I'm still unhappy that they gave Sandor's lines to Littlefinger (last week) but perhaps it was best to explain the Clegane brothers before we saw that fight.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Have you looked at the infographic, Jon?

You guys don't have to not click on my links just because they're from me, you know...I do call out which ones are gross.

Your posts are always link-tastic, but I think I hadn't watched some episodes when you posted that, ita, and didn't want to get spoiled.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The prison cells seem a little useless to me, though. Generally you don't want a prisoner able to commit suicide, but there, if you really want to end, all you have to do is jump.

But if you don't care about preventing suicide they're spectacularly effective, and preventing prisoner's suicides is a pretty modern idea, I think. It's a dungeon, not a jail, a little psychological torture inherent in the setting just makes sense.

How many more eps are there to GoT?

There are 10 and this was #5. Halfway through the season.

I've decided the tit was CGI. That's the only thing that will let my brain rest, even a little.
