I wonder if they're offering the next episode on HBOGo early because of the holiday next week.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's a good question.

I imagine it got hit with a lot of demand all at once. It took a couple of tries, but it eventually worked fine for me.

Other than the no wolves - I really enjoyed the scene of Bran riding for the first time since his accident. I mean, up until it all went wrong.
I was wondering if Ros would (book spoiler) instead of Shae - because why introduce another character for that role when you have one already established?
The Golden Crown and horse heart eating sequences were grottier in the books, I think. More screaming for the former and because you're in her head you totally know how difficult it is for Dany to not vomit in the latter scene.
I thought that the scene with Littlefinger and Ros and the other prostitute didn't work very well. I think I preferred that story from Catelyn's POV and I also cannot believe that Littlefinger would tell anyone that much about his motivation .

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Wait, there were two episodes last night? (I only ahemmed the one.)
So Viserys gets the crown he richly deserves. (I'm not 100% certain it would outright KILL you -- more likely 1st degree burns, blindness, and a day or two of mortal agony.)
sumi, I separately had the same thought about Ros and her eventual path in the story we're seeing -- I bet Martin wishes he'd thought of it for the first book.
Am I the only one who would have liked to hear where Septa Mordane came from? I swear, I felt bad for both Sansa AND Joffrey in that scene together. That is, if the producers are playing it that Joff is as totally sincere as any young abuser ever gets -- you know it's not going to last but the motive and belief is there. And Sansa by belief and culture is set up to be codependent.

I'm confused, too -- I didn't see Littlefinger in last night's episode (at least not the one that aired).
So Viserys gets the crown he richly deserves. (I'm not 100% certain it would outright KILL you -- more likely 1st degree burns, blindness, and a day or two of mortal agony.)
S. said that, too, but maybe the gold would overheat your brain?
