Coconuts

Aren't they much faster because of the Volume? Instead of having to spend months doing VFX in post, that's already done when they start, so it's just the usual editing turn around.

I thought she meant she'd tried.

Pod definitely made it, but no idea on Gendry. This episode made me wish we would have bought the more expensive TV. It was far, far less brutal than I expected. I mean, I was going full pessimist (they're all gonna die!), so just losing the Mormonts, Theon (totally disappointed he didn't get a "Father would be proud!" from Bran), Edd and Beric was kind of a relief.

And audience members, too. We (and several of our friends) are way more likely to watch something on the CW now than before this show.

Pretty sure he's pan.

I'm so disappointed that Bryan didn't get his start with a food truck in Chicago.

I'm going with luck.

But his parents are definitely not broke, hated his girlfriend, and want him out of their house- paying for him to go to NY would be a good investment from those angles.

Curiosity question- everyone who's thinking she may have died in a sex accident, were you Strike Back fans? I know that's where my head went... Also, I miss that show.

It was definitely the Artemis crew, but I don't think it was specifically Willoughby that was roasting the goat.

This was a teenager with a record of increasingly serious felonies though. They're not going to get the benefit of the doubt.

I just assumed that was Odin, and a wink to the book readers.

Curly hair does that though, especially in changing humidity. When I went to bed last night, my hair was on my shoulders. It's raining today, and it's 1/2" above them today, and yesterday wasn't super dry.

I heard the same deep gasp as when he was resurrected when he woke up on the ship, too. I think so, but from what we've seen, they don't get a clear view of the future. So, he may have known that they would meet at Hardhome, and win, but maybe not that Jon was in the Night's Watch with a Valyrian steel sword, rather that just a wildling. I think it was shaved/cut/trimmed fur, rather than pieced. I think you could use good faux fur, although the Ikea hides would probably be cheaper than the nice stuff (the last I bought was sheared beaver at $60 per yard, and the longer stuff was a lot more). Also yay fellow sewist!

My problem with the dog was that that dog would have stopped the instant it heard the command "No". This wasn't just a pet, it was a highly trained dog. They stop the instant you tell them to because otherwise they'll get hurt. I wasn't sure whether the "We'll change the world" and all of the "disrupt" stuff was supposed to be a Silicon Valley easter egg or not.

Eh, only maybe for one or two seasons out of a beaten to death number of seasons. It was mostly Duchovny, California and fucking, with some alcoholism thrown in for good measure.

I'm pretty sure a friend of a friend mentioned it when it premiered, but I heard the title, and CW, and took a hard pass. It was only when someone I trust a lot more made the rec that we started watching. Granted, that may have been more network than title, but the title definitely didn't entice me to watch.

I'm kind of torn on things being out of order. On one hand, it messes with the story. On the other, we started the series 3-4 episodes in (marathoned, not skipped), and got attached to the warmth and ridiculousness. The last few episodes have been pretty dark, and I'm not sure I would have stuck around had it started so dark and lightened up.

I'm enjoying this show, but it very much feels like a show that would be better if streamed/binge watched.

We binge watched it on Netflix after a friend binge watched it (and pretty sure he heard about it from a friend who binged watched it once it was streaming, too). I think it's the first show I've ever watched on the CW, the whole network's just generally not on our radar.

So, I need this explained. How could Nimue drink/touch from the Grail without poofing? She was already at her village, so all of the old anger would be there then if that's the excuse for her going bad. Second part, you know the Grail-whether cup or sword- poofs people. Why defend it? Tell them not to, if they grab it, oh well. Problem solved, no use of magic required on your part.

I think Dougal will be the one to do it instead of Jamie. That sidesteps most of the domestic violence aspect (while still generating outrage), the out of character-ness of Jaime liking it (he can still enjoy watching it), but keeps the outcome and drama, with the bonus of making Dougal that much more of an ass to both of them. Claire will still be mad that Jamie didn't stop it, plus jealous that he stepped up for Laoghaire, but not for her (but we can see him offer and Dougal refuse). And it avoids the "If he didn't want to do it, why didn't he just wail on a bag or his hand or something so it sounded like he did it?" questions.

I had the same thought, but Roger made a comment about how they only had a half dozen or so first names. And the previous guy Randall raped who hung himself was also named Alexander, so who knows who he actually meant.

But we made sure to get time with Mr. Lettie Mae, whose name I don't even know.

When was this shown? I don't know whether I missed a preview chapter, or just forgot something from AFFC/ADWD (I did buy a Kindle after falling asleep and dropping ADWD on my head, so I can't say I was super enthralled with the story).
