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

Because books.
I've caught bits and pieces of that show, from a bunch of different episodes, and never seen her in it. But I have seen the stories of her being drunk, etc.

ita,
I'm not sure it is. If you watched through the season finale I think it was implied she wasn't coming back any time soon.
I was left with the impression we weren't going to see her again.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I don't watch Boardwalk Empire, but I'm enjoying the AV Club's take on it:
In yet more promising casting news for the third season of Boardwalk Empire, TV Line reports that the show has added “The Complete Absence of Paz de la Huerta” to its ensemble, who will fill the dead air once occupied by Paz de la Huerta.

I've never seen it myself, but I really do love reading people harsh on her. I get the impression that whether or not she's good in it, it's the least stupid way people get to see her look.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I heard terrible things about her behavior on the set of BE. just terrible things. It might have been here, but since I read that shit, I kind of hope her careers dies in flames.

Westeros got an advanced copy of the GoT blu-ray. They said the first thing they looked at was the History of Westeros section:
The various segments, covering selected parts of the history of Westeros and the Seven Kingdoms, are read by a number of different actors, speaking a their characters. Our favorites? Charles Dance’s phlegmatic Tywin on the Night’s Watch (“Fairy tales”) and the Mad King, and Harry Lloyd as Viserys on everything he reads, because he absolutely projects his character and the writing is especially good when you get his very warped sense of recent Targaryen history. Other reads include Isaac Hampstead-Wright as Bran, Michelle Fairley as Catelyn, Richard Madden as Robb, Mark Addy as Robert, and Donald Sumper as Maester Luwin.
The best part of these segments is the ones where multiple characters provide different takes on events, such as the Sack of King’s Landing, which feels appropriate to the setting of the series. It does mean there’s a bit of repetition, it’s true, but still, very nice.
I hope that these are features on the dvds too.

And GoT fans - an interview with Liam Cunningham who will be in season 2.
If you haven't read the second book, you may not want to listen to the interview.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
GoT - season 2 photos.
Nice. Brienne is perfect. Davos is a bit older than I pictured him, but I'm good with it.
