Cersei? I beleive it was Joffrey that ordered them killed. He questioned her about the bastards and inquired about how many other kids his father had. Up unitl now, she was just ignoring it. I beleive he had them killed so that no one would challenge his throne in hte future

Dani and Rak wub.png I think he's falling for her and I love his loyalty

Maybe, but I'm just talking about Joff's reasoning. If he did it, I don't think he was worried about his crown. He killed a whore's baby girl. That child was never going to sit the Iron Throne. I believe in season one they talked about bastards being considered morally corrupt in Westeros. Nevermind a whore's daughter.

I'm not completely sure it was Joff, even though he asked about his father's bastards and I know he's capable of giving those orders. Cersei didn't give him an answer about having other siblings. How did he know how to track down every single one of them? Cersei had a better reason, she knew all of those children had dark hair and Robert's eyes. That doesn't prove anything by today's standards, but in this world I think it's strengthens the declaration Stannis sent out.

He killed more than just a whore's daughter. We saw several people of all ages, from that baby to a male teen killed in that final scene. The order was to kill all bastards. I dont think he cared whether the mother was whore, the kid was a boy or girl, etc... He wants he and his siblings via Cersei to be Robert's only living children

Joffrey wouldnt, but he knows his father's inner circle would. Its not like Joffrey was going around leading the pack with names. He trusted Robert's men to do that for him

All I'm saying is if this was a strategic move, why bother with a whore's daughter? I simply don't think that Joff is a brilliant strategist. If he were, he would watch what he says about Tywin. I think he's a petulant little boy who killed those little kids (if he did) because he could, not because he thought they were a threat.

Are you purposely missing my point? It would be a good strategy if he did it because he thought they were a threat and he was right. They are absolutely no possibly threat and he has not even considered that they could be because he's arrogant on top of everything else. None of them, especially not that baby girl of a whore could EVER sit the iron throne. All seven kingdoms would be in revolution before that EVER happened. Joff killed his half siblings because he is a spiteful little bitch.

This is what you said, and I am saying there is no possible way this is true. I didn't need to read the books to know that. In fact if Joff claims this is his reason I STILL won't believe he did it for any other reason than the fact that he likes making people suffer. My last word on the subject. tongue.png Well, except to say that Robert has "made the eight" so if Joff thinks he got anywhere near all of them he is a bigger fool than I suspect.

More brilliance by GAME OF THRONES!

Loving all the stuff we get with Tyrion and Cersei. Brilliant actors and characters. What Cersei told Tyrion about their mother must be one of the cruelest things she's done--and that says a lot!

Excuse me for saying this, but Theon's ship scene was so incredibly hot--God that man is sexy! I was hoping for another full frontal scene! ph34r.png The stuff with his sister was gross... so what else is new? LOL

Loving everything with Aria and the bastard (what's his name again?). What Littlefinger threatened to do to the whore was absolutely shocking. And the stuff with Jon and the baby was ohmy.png.

I wanna see more of Melisandre. She is very intriguing.

I did not enjoy that episode as much as others. At least, Tyrion continues to be clever and entertaining. He should have knocked both the enuch and Cersei out. Cersei is such a bitch. The poor baby and Jon got wacked on the head. Gendry and Arya are alright. Stannis and Mesilandre are way too creepy. Baleish/Little Finger is a piece of [!@#$%^&*]. I hope someone sticks a sword into him and cuts his head off before this is all done.

Oh, I did enjoy Theon's sister and father taking him down a peg or two. He is so full of himself. He really is useless crap.

I was gonna make a joke about Theon having the goods to back it up, but nevermind!

Was that sperm that Littlefinger wiped off the prostitute?!

And I loved that pirate joking about being convincing enough to get a man to sleep with him lol

    • Michelle Forbes really captivated GL viewers so it was smart of Long to take advantage of that. When I looked back at news items and letters to the editors, I found so many letters to the editors/columns upset she was not nominated for Best Actress the year before she was nominated for supporting actress.  I read somewhere that they had planned a major storyline with Sonni and Roger but that it never came to pass because Forbes wanted to leave the show. I wonder what they had in mind.

    • Haha, love to hear it, and thank you! Yeah, I just write down thoughts/notes as I'm watching in this viewing journal I'm keeping.  So, you get my raw, honest thoughts in the moment without me having to go back and remember or curate anything.

        Watros is great, and I've liked her from the beginning, so I'm excited to see her evolve and shine even more as Annie continues to descend. I'll keep an eye out for that scene.  I have to say, Rick cracks me up, there are times when he makes jokes and you can tell the actor is having fun with it and cracking himself up. He's endearing. Let me suffer!    So funny how big Josh's hair is in the 80s. Sign of the times, I guess.   I can't wait to finally see the Sonni storyline and watch a younger Michelle Forbes shine. It's on my list, I will go back in time eventually and do this  
    • This was late 1993, right before Roger is shot. 
    • Haha I guess so, and in this recent case, Alan absolutely deserved it (many times over, honestly).
    • It's hard to remember, as Holly and Blake always seemed to be on the outs over something.
    • Ohhh yes, these were exciting!  What year was this?  Another added bonus, watching Tangie lurk around like a thief with that black beanie.

      I'm happy to hear I'm not alone in my thoughts over Gilly's exit and Vivian's first and likely only contract storyline. It was just a shame. On one hand, I'm glad they decided to finally write for this family (as Gilly was sorely underused in 1995), but then on the other... that was what they decided? Sure, it was a bit soapy, but oh so gross. They could have come up with something better.
    • Women slapping guys is a little more common.  I grew up with CBS, so it doesn't seem strange to me. If you got a slap, you usually really deserved it.
    • That could be it too. I just remember a slap at some point. That would have been around when she was made at Holly for "ruining" her one-sided relationship with Alan Michael. I don't know if you will be getting to 2000 (if you do - buckle up!) but there's a character who was intended to be Stacy.
    • Agree with all of this. They use stuff like the redecoration and the party as major events and nothing comes of it. Kyle/Claire is of no interest to me because Kyle has already been deeply in love with Lola and summer so his devotion to Claire is more of the same. And Claire is a character that came from a nonsense rewrite and now is presented as Little Miss Innocent, her dark past swept away.That charm bracelet of Nikki's must weigh a ton. The list of grandchildren seemed endless. The thing is, most of them are offscreen and ignored. Victoria seems like a neglectful parent. Was Dylan mentioned? Another dumb rewrite character. Not only is the show hampered by so many vet charcters, TPTB don't seem interested in venturing into new areas with them. Cole was brought by but there hasn't been any dramatic story that could impact on Victoria? What had he been doing all those years? So many characters w/o stories talking about businesses we never see.
