That is good!

This is the "previously on" for tonight's episode..BENJEN STARK???

! No longer available

[Bromptonboy]

Wow, what can that mean?
[spoiler]I have thought that 'Cold Hands' was Benjen, but he doesn't seem to be in the show.[/spoiler]

[Rico]

So, tonight is the season finale?  Is this a shorter number of episodes than other seasons?

[ChrisMC]

Wow, what can that mean?
[spoiler]I have thought that 'Cold Hands' was Benjen, but he doesn't seem to be in the show.[/spoiler]

It means that the creators of this show like to troll their audience!!!

[Bromptonboy]

Well, that was some seaon finale. 

[spoiler]Looks like we pretty much ended at Book 5.

Stanys being killed was a shock.

With Danyrs, the book has a cooler ending, since in the book she has her dragon with her as the Khalisate approaches.

Seeing Varys with Tyrion was really cool.[/spoiler]

If you don't die brutally onscreen, you ain't dead yet!

[Bromptonboy]

If you don't die brutally onscreen, you ain't dead yet!

Yes, and death is not permanent in Westeros..

[Rico]

What if you get burned up? Made into dragon food? Head lopped off? Turned into a frozen zombie? Poisoned? Wolf bait?  Where's the line drawn?  LOL!

[Rico]

This is really, really good. Always have loved this song and it works perfectly here for "Game of Thrones." (warning - very brief nudity, violence, and of course spoilers for the first season)

I enjoyed the first episode of this season. 

A couple of things:

Jon Snow
[spoiler]I still think Jon Snow will be resurrected by Melisandre.  that was a shock to see her without her guise![/spoiler]

Arya
[spoiler]The blindness is from book 4 and 5 - and I think we all know where it is going.  although in the books it is the 'kindly man' who beats her.[/spoiler]

Dorne
[spoiler]This is where I get disappointed - since the paramour has no claim to the throne, it makes no sense.  In the books, I am guessing that his daughter does the same deed with the sand snakes help[/spoiler]

Khaleesi
[spoiler]She is in more of a position of strength in the books, since she had her dragon with her when she is found by the Khal.  Still, this should be good!  Love the actress and the character.  [/spoiler]
