Real leeches don't hurt, except emotionally -- their mouths secrete an anesthetic so you don't notice them. And the wound they leave keeps bleeding for a while, because there's also anticoagulants.
Yes, but these are Westeros leeches.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

They’re direleeches.
Such leeches as were heralded by the red comet.
Draco does seem like a fuzzy kitten, yes.
Direleeches.
Okay, you people made me laugh hard.
By the way, interesting little tidbit from the books that may or may not reflect on the series... So, in the books, we know Robb's Queen is Jeyne Westerling, a minor bannerman of Tywin Lannister. In the TV show, his wife is Talisa. Her credit is listed as Talisa Maegyr, and she's of noble birth from Volantis. Well.... in book five one of the ruling Triarchs of Volantis is one Malaquo Maegyr, who also happens to be a Red Priest of R'hllor. Interesting. The Wiki of Ice and Fire says it is unknown if this means anything.
I'm very interested in seeing where the Talisa storyline goes, since it is entirely new to the show. So many possibilities!
Stoopid Liberace.
I liked the TV movie. I haven't seen Michael Douglas disappear into a character in forever.
And, fuck a mother, Rob Lowe must have been majorly uncomfortable, if not in pain. Sheesh.
Somehow, I didn't know the Liberace movie was a Soderburgh film. I will have to watch it over the next few days.
You do not think Maisie Williams is ADORBS enough yet: [link]
