Mal ,'Bushwhacked'
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
From HBOwatch:
While not officially announced by HBO, Kerry Ingram tweeted today that she’d recieved a role in Game of Thrones season 3. Kerry has won an Olivier Award for her work on the musical Matilda and worked has also worked in other films. We’re 98.5% confident that Kerry will be playing the role ofShireen, daughter of Stannis Baratheon. She plays but a minor role in the novels but who knows where the Game of Thrones writers may take her part in Season 3 and beyond
I wonder if Bronn will wind up married to her instead of Lollys.
(book spoilers, potential TV spoilers)
Oh, interesting idea particularly since Lollys doesn't seem to be anywhere.
I put up my first post about the first two eps of Deadwood [link]
Man, that was much too short.
Loved the dragons burning what's his name.
The extra creepy Other (Was that Cold Hands? Because if so - he isn't quite as I imagined.)
I can't wait to see the dragons fishing while Dany et al sail to wherever is next. Well, I hope we get to see that next season.
It was a good speech.
The House of the Undying wrecked me.
Yes, that was Cold Hands. No, that's not quite how I imagined him, either. But still pretty awesome.
Yeah, I liked the choices they made with the House of the Undying. The things they left out make sense too.
Loved seeing Drogo and the baby.
Maester Lewin's farewell to Bran and Rickon wrecked me.
Loved the House of the Undying. I was wondering how they were going to fit it all into part of one ep, but I thought the condensed version worked. And the little dragons raising their heads to her when she finally walked into the center chamber! You could practically hear them say "MOMMY!!"
(Other things in that ep raise questions about how...other other things will work out later, but I assume the writers are aware and have plans.)
DH and I were watching with my in-laws last night (who have not read the books) and had to explain about Jaqen's face, and the burning of Winterfell (mainly who the hell the Boltons were). I wonder if anyone else had trouble following that?
