It didn't help that he randomly disappeared from that the middle of that last one without explanation, IIRC.

It was SO fun to read through all of the GoT posts! Some of y'all were on fire!

Vonnie K

Theon is pretty much earmarked for a redemptive death in battle (saving one of the Starks -- probably Jon -- in a crucial moment) so this felt like the last scene between them together.

Tom Scola and DavidS LOLOLOLOLOL

I have now achieved maximum nerd.
Remember when Jon B. went to theremin camp? You have now reached that level.

DavidS

I'm down with the Iron Throne being melted.
!!!!!!

Vonnie K

I still think Arya and Tyrion have relative A-character death proof armour

Tom Scola

The Hound CANNOT die because CLEGANEBOWL.

msbelle

I ship Brienne and Jaime SO FUCKING HARD.
I'm sorry.

VonnieK

I know the Night King threw up some fog or whatever, but couldn't Jon and Dany have had their dragons spit out some fire in the vague vicinity of the undead army BEFORE they breached the defenses?

THANK YOU!!!

Jessica

Did not appreciate Bran telling Theon "You're a good man" and then neglecting entirely to say "But if you wait five minutes you won't have to die, just hang tight until my sister gets here."
Fucking Bran.

VonnieK

Brienne of fucking Tarth would NOT sob and beg her man not to leave her. AS IF.

THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!

Amy

to hear her [Brienne] begging him to stay just killed it. Not that I don't sympathize on a purely "I'm in love and it's new and wonderful!" level, but the idea that she isn't joining the battle herself is just absurd.
Preach it.

Jessica

It's not so much that he's [Jon's] a threat as the fact that there are no women writing this show is a threat.
Exactly, exactly.

-t

I can kind of see Brienne staying in Winterfell to keep Sansa safe, she will certainly be head of her Queensguard when Westeros realizes Sansa is the practical choice.

You'd fucking think, but Brienne stayed in King's Landing at the end. WTF.

Tom Scola

Jon NOPES the fuck out, and retreats not only from Kings Landing, but all the way back North, and then keeps going and goes to live in the wildlands with his best bud Tormund and his sidekick Ghost.
!!!!!!

Katerina Bee

All I want from the last GOT episode is for Sansa to live through it. Winterfell needs someone to be the Stark.

Wish granted!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Glam, I was just coming to post about Gentleman Jack. I had seen ads for it on BBC One, and thought it would eventually come to PBS, but happened to be flipping through the guide at a hotel and saw it. I'm catching up on demand, and I love it so far.

I'm on ep 3, I think. It's so interesting to me how she is a libertine in some ways, but very traditional in others.

Yes it is! Lesbian landowner but definitely still about those social classes.

I just started watching and I already love it - can't wait to see the rest of the season!
