He's her nephew. I hope the show makes them work together and respect each other because they do have many similar views towards governing. But don't have them get Biblical. Please, just no.
She grew up thinking she'd marry Viserys. The Targaryans married brother to sister all the time. There's no ick factor there in her mind, even once she finds out.

For the sake of book Jaime only, I will be sorely disappointed if that's the end of him.

Missandei and Grey Worm's actors better get Emmys by the way. That scene was seriously well acted.

Tyrion is SO going to end up on the wrong side of Euron's tongue knife. I really, really, really hate you GRRM. That being said, I teared up about 3 times tonight. Brief glimpses of happiness I suppose.

I can only imagine his idea of a "courting" gift to Cersei will be...
My guess is Tyrion. In chains.

Darn. Just saw a tweet from Anne Kenney that she won't be writing for Season 4. She says she's off to look for new challenges.
https://twitter.com/ankenneyy/status/881956296949354496This is worrisome. Writer changes never bode well for successful series.

I might be a weirdo, but I think Scarlett and Damien have WAY better chemistry than Scarlett and Gunnar. Like, orders of magnitude.

There are no redeemable characters, at all, in this show. Except perhaps some of the mine workers.

I suppose the older actor could play Fergus for "leap O the Cask" incident, but when I picture it in my mind I always see Romann as Fergus. Oh well, as long as they include the scene I will be happy.
I think they probably have to. Fergus being crippled, and how that affected a man in his time, truly defined a lot about his and Marsali's relationship...

Godric meeting the sun was this stupid show's high point. And it went on for 5 more seasons after that...

That woman desperately needs a shopper and a stylist. OMG. How do you make such a beautiful woman into such a terrible frump?

They're probably just hoping for miraculous aging in Cat and Sam.

What a stupid episode. Everything was ridiculously forecast, utterly trite, and boring. I think I'm out whether CB stays or not. Bleah.

Are they trying to do a #FreeScarlett thing with that asshole producer, because otherwise, I have no idea where any of that's going.
It's incredibly obvious where that is going. (Psstttt...50 shades of grey, perhaps you've heard of it?) Which is my main complaint with the show's move to CMT. I...ugh. There is absolutely nothing about this show that feels new, interesting, or innovative. Everything is as light and fresh as a 1,000 year old rock. There have been exactly three good moments in 6 episodes:
1. Clay - that guy can sing and I love his voice.
2. Scarlett and Deacon - Whoever is writing their scenes' dialogue is amazing. Actually Scarlett's dialogue has gone up a notch overall vs. CBS.
3. I lied. Apparently there are only 2 things. In six episodes.Bleah. I might be done with this show.
Edit: Is Daphne's little friend the chickee who played Poison Ivy on Gotham? -

I trust that the writers will handle Willoughby well, but I always felt it was an unnecessary plot. It reminds me of that writing exercise in school when someone starts a story by writing a paragraph and then passing it to the next student to write the next paragraph and so on. You read the story, and often something random will have happened that doesn't make sense. The later students had to either go with it and weave that into the story or just ignore it and try to keep the story on track. So I hope Willoughby will be a truly fleshed out character, and not a plot point to be used.
Oh man...I adored Willoughby to be honest. All of it. The elegance, the disdain, the yearning, the human tragedy of it all. Some of his speeches were my very favorite parts of the books. I always found him to be quite fleshed out. I hope they do it justice too! But for different reasons I guess.

It's entirely possible they'll be doing the aging with CGI...it's getting to the point where it's equally effective and cheaper than straight up makeup work.

Finally watched. This Brianna is the first major, major miscast. I'm all for unknowns but this woman cannot act. Roger however, is perfect.

I knew it was Arya as the server. She finally got to cross another person off her list while feeding Walder Frey his own sons. Now she needs to get Winterfell.
Is Jamie on her list?

I'm super curious to know when this supposed "big" Jon episode that Kit mentioned in Entertainment Weekly is going to happen. Given that there is one episode left with apparently 60 other plots happening (exaggerating slightly), I can't really see Jon being the focus.
You probably just saw it. That battle was all about Jon Snow...

Ramsey's game with Rickon did not surprise me. I did yell at the screen, "zig zag!" Also, "did Osha teach you nothing? Because you know nothing, Rickon Stark."
I do not understand why he did not immediately run in front of the goddamn huge burning obstacles between him and the archer. I was so mad at that boy.

Question...this has always bothered me. Is Claire right or left-handed? If she's right-handed, she's wearing Jamie's ring on that hand and Frank's on the left. Why would she do that since she has pledged herself completely to Jamie?
I don't know about Scotland, but in Ireland, wedding rings are sometimes worn on the right hand. It seems to be more "Celt" than "Irish" though in the histories.

S07.E05: Eastwatch
in Game Of Thrones
· Edited by areca
I think it's not working, in any way, for me because what, in their...2nd or 3rd scene together, she was already starting with the moon eyes? Each scene had been them spending approximately...30-45 minutes together over the course of several weeks? With Drogo, you saw her sale, captivity, slow integration into the Dothraki way of life, mutual attraction, love, and respect develop over a significant period of time with her and Drogo. The screen time made it believable. I don't believe a damn thing about Dany and Jon. It's just bad. Really not satisfying.
