Game of Thrones!!!

[pismoduo]

Anyone? H and I just finished the newest episode.

[LadyNymeria]

Yes!!! I loved it! I thought it was an excellent premiere and set the bar high for this season.

[LadyNymeria]

And apparently my kid is learning quick it's a good show. Baby started kicking when Brienne showed up and kept kicking the rest of the episode.

I'm sure it's because my heart rate was probably up a bit, but I'm going to pretend baby has good taste in TV already.

[kerbear]

we watched! I was really pleased with the premiere. FTWD will need to be watched later this week. Everything takes a backseat to Sunday night GOTs!

PS- the last scene... I can never unsee that...

[singingsea]

I can't unsee Melisandre at the end

[pismoduo]

Oh god yes, Melisandre at the end was... Yeesh.

I felt it was a little slow. And I'm not totally sure where the Dorne plotlines are going now.

Also, as someone who read the books, I really don't like what they've done with Jaime. He had so much more growth in the books.

Like how many women auditioned for that last scene? "Sorry, too saggy. Sorry, not saggy enough... NEXT!"

My DH and I were debating who would take over by right, given what happened in the epi last night. The oldest Sand Snake?

It's weird, because in the books the Prince of Dorne has two children older than Trystane.

But none of the Sand Snakes are legitimate children. So I don't think they can inherit. It would basically start a civil war in Dorne between the noble houses there as to who would take over as Prince.

Unless the people of Dorne are really mad enough at Doran's lack of reaction to Elia and Oberyn's deaths like Ellaria said they were.

Possibly. The Dornish are somewhat odd like that.

Spinoff question- what house would you be in if you were a GoT character?

[LadyNymeria]

kerbear - Even though they seem to have shitty luck, I like the Starks the best. I'd rather be a Stark than anyone else.

[kerbear]

I think I would be a Tyrell, Martell and then Greyjoy in that order.

As long as I didn't have to be Theon.
