Thread: Is there not a Game of Thrones thread? *SPOILERS*

It really only allows for one thing to be set up, and it's just wasted a lot of air time.

It is a boring storyline to me too. I'm not a fan of the religious aspect of it however they're trying to show that people really do have more power than the few, rich elites if they band together and unite.

The Tyrells and what's left of the Lannisters seem afraid to stand up to the High Sparrow because he's won the support of the common people in a short time.

I'm pretty sure the Tyrell and Lannister army could wipe out the faith Militant pretty quickly but there could bean even bloodier revolt if they do.

At least something might happen.

You guys beat me to it.

I'm over it too Mo

I would have loved to see more of Blackfish and Riverrun (I think it's Riverrun). I don't think we've seen him since season 2.

I'd like to see both the High Sparrow and Ramsey Bolton get their throats cut tonight.

SPOILER ALERT (sort of):

Not tonight. Episode 9 is "Battle of the ********"

I never thought I'd be so happy to see Cersei be a bitch.

What was the rumor Cersei was having investigated?

I think they may be looking into the Sparrow's past.

This episode gets 200,000 style points.

Loved this episode!

Glad they didn't leave the Arya thing over for one more episode, which I was afraid they were going to do.

I think the whole Brianne/Jamie relationship that they created is pretty cool. It will be interesting to see how many more times it will come into play and if there is any significant role it will play in the end.

Nah, the pacing on this season has been slick as hell for the most part. In past seasons, the whole Hound story would have had him taking 3 episodes between the settlement slaying and his revenge just looking stoically over the landscape, walking, camping by a fire, then walking some more. This season they killed his friend and in the NEXT episode he chops a dudes head off and disembowels another from the crotch. Not only that he got to hang 2 more even though he wanted to slaughter him.
