    It was a Game of Thrones bottle episode.   They played it cheap this week, padding the hour with repetitive reunions and the Winterfell version of an Irish wake so they could funnel the budget into the upcoming battle.

    This show prides itself on being unpredictable and refusing to pander to formula, but letting the clock run out on this episode before the battle begins was about as formulaic as it gets.  A cheap ploy. 

    Ultimately another huge disappointment, right on the heels of what was previously the most disappointing episode in the series.  

    Has everyone at Winterfell forgotten the enemy has a dragon now?   I didn't hear a word about strategy to defend Winterfell from the ice dragon -- or for that matter how to prevent the other two dragons from suffering the same fate as their fallen sibling.  Jon's big lecture -- they don't tire, they don't die, etc. -- made no mention that a dragon was even part of the equation. 

    They sure are milking a lot of mileage out of Jon's birthright.   Big reveal in Season 7 episode 7: We learn John is a Targaryen.  Big reveal in Season 8 Episode 1: John learns he is a Targaryen.  Big reveal in Season 8 Episode 2: Dany learns John is a Targaryen.   

    For a moment I wondered if Gendry might ask Arya to put on another face before having sex with her.

    Just ugh to the whole thing, even the Shireen stand-in pulling on Davos's heart strings.  About as tropey as it gets.

    Amen to all of this!!!  My biggest beef so far is that no one has acknowledged the fact the Night King has a freaking undead dragon yet, is just flat out lazy story telling.  In the too quick war council scene I don’t think it was even mentioned!

    Capt Lee did use a familiar in his conversation, as though he knew exactly who this person is. He told he/she to get a plane ticket and come on down. Connie would be nice, but Rhylee would be jealous. Now who is Kate going to call in a favor with to get her desperately needed help? 

    I would love to see Amy!  I did see on Instagram,  Captain Lee does run into connie from time to time.

    The interior, specifically Kate and Josiah, are doing a FANTASTIC job.  I am convinced they are the reason for the tip.  I am glad that Captain Lee notices that Chandler is the weakest link on the exterior.

    Josiah and Kate really do make a perfect team!  I would love if they sack Caroline and bring back Amy!  That would be a stew dream team!

    Wait, so Chandler called Captain Lee a "fucking asshole?"  I thought Captain Lee called Chandler a "fucking asshole," which made more sense because that's what I thought of Chandler after that exchange.

    I re-watched the scene - it happened while Chandler was walking down the stairs so you couldn’t see exactly who said it but it did sound like Chandler but can’t be certain ??‍♀️

    I couldn’t despise Chandler more. I actually gasped when he walked away from his talk with Captain Lee calling him a “fucking asshole.” Everything the captain said went in one ear and out the other.

     

    Ummmm how did I miss that!!!!  I was over Chandler but now he needs to go!!!!  No way do you disrespect our Captain Lee like that!!!!!  ??

  6. When Hannah came up to interrupt the Conrad and Adam conversation, for the hundredth “chat” with Conrad, in my head all I can hear was Bethenny Franklin yelling, “GO TO SLEEEP!” She is the worst and Brooke coming in a close second.  The only people tolerable on this show are Colin, Jaime and Adam (sometimes).

    I read that T-Rav won’t be at the reunion or be back next season.  I’m sure Ashley is done here, and will probably look for another gig on another show, if they want her.  This is just what I read, so one never knows for sure.

    No T-Rav or Ashley at the reunion - possibly.  IMO it will be a dull reunion then ??

  10. I just had to rewind 5 times . . . The look of utter disgust on Tom’s face when walking into Common Place after commenting on all the high top tables . . . Priceless!!!!!

    Did anyone else see a listing for Episode 8: The Apostate that was supposed to air tonight? Somehow, it got scrapped and the 20/20 specials took its place. I'm dying to know what happened to it.

    I wonder too.  It was listed on my Kodi app but when I clicked the episode it was the "Ask me anything 2,"  I did think that we where originally promised 8 episodes - leaves me wondering!!!

    The reason Mike calls Monique Yingling "Muffins" is because on the earlier 20/20 (the one promoting Ron Miscavige's book), she brought a basket of muffins and breads "as edible proof" of how great the food is at Scientology's Gold Base. She also called it "a worker's paradise." You can see for yourself on YouTube just after the 17-minute mark.

    Hahaha I love it!!!!  My for Mike Rinder grows because that is nickname is perfect!
