GoT: Very glad to see Jon Snow walk away from The Watch.
Also I was impressed by his opening scene, you really felt as if it had been awhile since drew breath and he was getting used to it again.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Because books.
I loved that there was no other sound in that scene, because it really emphasized what you mentioned.
Penny Dreadful: S3E2. Did anyone else gasp at the end, or just me? I had no idea.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I suspected.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was all prepared to believe that it was a Bolton-trap (a la Lord Manderley in the books) until that. I'm getting tired of Starks getting thrown at Boltons

Penny Dreadful: I suspected, and I'm not sure how I feel about that reveal.

Me either, only because ... I can see an alternate identity (a daytime one), sort of, but not necessarily that one. Not sure how they're going to reconcile the two.
I loved the doctor's reaction to Vanessa's session, though. There's definitely more going on there than they're revealing yet.

Seriously, that was the best episode of GoT in a long time. When Sansa and Jon met at the beginning of the episode, I got all excited: "Holy shit, they're actually MOVING THE PLOT FORWARD."

Yes, it was an excellent episode! So much happened.
