Now that they are veering away from the books, I believe the quality is going to drop off a cliff.

Agreed, the new season is way off from the books.

storyline is very good. "If I think of this again, punch me in the face"... the dialogue is not witty.

Holy fuck this show is pure drivel now. John Snow resurrected from the witch a few days later? I would feel better if she did it right away but a couple days after rotting sets in and rigor mortis. I do like that Ramsey fed the fat chick and baby to the dogs. So many story lines they're trying to cover and doing it in 8 episodes is just not enough.

That's the problem with the writers: They have to keep John Snow in for the fangirls, so storyline or logic be damned. And while it is true that they cannot follow all story lines, they are following the most crucial ones. Making it all the more bizarre that they aren't simply following them as written!

I suspect Big John Snow will be brought back to life in the next book as well.

Not sure about some of the other deaths this season though.

These are my thoughts.

Spoiler: John Snow will eventually ride on one of the Dragons.

Won't happen like this though...

Still funny how people can come and go to Kings Landing in an episode but 5+ seasons and Daenerys is still trudging along.

Man, this last episode was shit.

This had some the worst dialog, the worst pacing and scenes that should have been tense just fizzled. I'm waiting for a drum track snare and cymbal hit everything the dwarf makes a funny.

Fuck. So disappointing.

Don't forget the dwarf was completely written out of book 4 I believe yet HBO found a way to keep his character relevant. he's now become the Henny Youngman of this show. I miss the sex scenes. HBO has taken this from R rated to PG-13.

yeah, it's the 2nd week in a row that the imp has said "that's because you have no cawk...." to embarrass the bald spider guy.

I like the fact they don't drag shit out like they used to - but the dialogue is terrible and lots of logic fails. They're trying to re-create the series finale of Breaking Bad with every episode now. Everything is too quick, too pieced together, with lowbrow humor to keep the idiots watching, jon snow to keep the daryl dixon fangirls watching, and everything wraps up in a bow. if the whole season is like this, things are going to be hella confusing.

Yes.

Gotta love The Imps "If I think of this again, punch me in the face"-comment to the Eunuch.

Good to see the Red Witch listening to reason finally.

Looking forward to the next episode that will make america great again.

they probably know they'll get a bigger audience and more $$ by keeping in the lowbrow shit, for the WWE/Nascar/Palin fans. Fart jokes will be next.

Last episode was great.

Bran returns, Ramsay gets even more hated, Roose and Balon both getting offed, and Snow.

What's not to like?

I haven't read it in a while but the mom of the sand snakes (forget her name, the hot mature Falcon wench from Rome) isn't really a central character at all in the book. Can't see her killing the Dornish prince.

Her daughter had the best tits on the show.
