Jenny ,'Bring On The Night'
[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.
Okay, so Joffrey doesn't really get any sympathy. I'm just saying, his raging insanity isn't necessarily his fault, I guess. But neither was Aerys to blame for his own insanity, so no sympathy points.
As a sound footnote upon rewatch, I'm pretty sure this episode features every single one of the major musical themes featured in the show so far.
Understanding that Joff was dealt a shit genetic hand doesn't mean I don't want to see his head on a stake.
Plus, this is not a kid who was abused or neglected -- he was adored and spoiled and well-fed. No matter what's in his genes, he doesn't have a lot of experiential reason to be as horrible as he is.
Yeah, however terrible at parenting Cersei/Robert/Jaime were, I'm pretty sure Gendry's childhood was objectively worse than Joff's. And Jon's, and Dany's, for that matter.
Seriously.
Really want season 4 episode titles. Want to know where they start. . . I'm hoping with Joffrey's wedding. And I'm looking forward to the Mountain/Red Viper fight.
Also - do we think that Jaime sent Brienne to the cells? (as in the book) - but given that Loras Tyrell isn't a White Guard - would that happen?

Bwahaha!
Poor Theon....
Is there a scale on which we can quantify how stupid everyone in Bon Temps needs to be in order to "move" the "plot" "along"?
I nuked my season pass, but it was on when I came home, so I looked, and...I don't know how I would get on the side of anyone. The most compelling thing was making bets with myself if there was going to be a werenip slip--fuzzy mons, but cheap on the areolae.

I don't know about a scale, but Jason continues to be the most stupid character on TV.
Truth. He makes Scott McCall look like Niccolo Machiavelli.

He just didn't feel too much stupider than everyone else. Everything felt arbitrary.

He makes Derek Hale look like...well, still not that great--he is Derek, after all--but at least Scott McCall has a plan that worked to his name. Derek can't even get a straight teenaged virgin girl to plight her troth to him.
