That. Was. AWESOME!
Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[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.
That was an excellent moment.
I also loved the reveal of the heads in the bag. Nicely played.
I have never wanted Joffrey to die so slowly and painfully, except for how I feel like that every episode. And Cersei really is completely irredeemable.
I told Sam to go back for the blade, too! (I love this storyline. LOVE. But my soft spot for Sam is huge.)
Sam the Slayer. Oh, Sam.
Lady Olenna laying out all the multitudinous convolutions of relationships with the various Lannister/Tyrell weddings was HI-larious.
Yeah it was. She continues to delight.
Cersei just has no subtlety whatsoever. It's sad how very bad she is at intrigue, especially when she thinks she's so good.
I thought Sophie Turner was heartbreakingly wonderful all through the episode - at her wedding, the feast afterward, then in the bed chambers. And the morning after scene was nice and awkward, even though Shae is all happy that Tyrion didn't boink Sansa in the night.
In general, I think Sophie Turner has been absolutely spot on perfect as Sansa. I've seen a lot of hating on Sansa from some book readers, and I can see why see can be a difficult character to warm to, but I have a great fondness for her. I feel like I've seen far less hating on Sansa from the TV side, and I like to think that that's because Sophie Turner has really found the core of the character.
I kinda wish he was blonder. In my head he had the Targaryen hair, but I might have made that up.
HA - I was thinking he should have been swarthier.
Lady Olenna laying out all the multitudinous convolutions of relationships with the various Lannister/Tyrell weddings was HI-larious.
I kind of want her narrating everything that happens.
Jessica - I also thought Dario should be swarthier.
I looked up his description and I must be thinking of someone else. Daario is supposed to dye his beard and hair blue, Tyroshi style..
