My God, I love this show soooo much!

There is not a single thing that I didn't enjoy. From the terror of what's happening up North to the magic and disgustingness of Dany's travels.

Maergery took me by surprise; her move with the orphans is not what I expected at all and I cannot tell for sure whether she truly means it or if it is a part of a plan. I can tell that the bitchfest between Cersei and Maergery will be thrilling to watch. Meanwhile, Tyrion vs Tywin was also great. You gotta love a show that can do gore, fantasy, action AND conflicting personal drama well.

The nipple moment was horrifying--and I would have never expected less! Loved the whole thing with that magical spider (whatever that is), even though the CGI was a little dodgy. And, of course, the dragons! Nice twist at the end, too.

Welcome back Game of Thrones!

I had to turn away from the nipple. That was gratuitous and I don't even want to think about it.

I liked the premiere a lot. The giant was very cool and I like the dragons are growing up. As for the characters and stories this year, I liked that that guard from season 1 showed up with Dany all these episodes later. That's a good memory on the part of the plot. Jon Snow looks to be spending another year on his own, and whatever happened to his uncle he went looking for two seasons ago? Tywin and Tyrion were great: Lannister Sr is just a mean, mean guy but a lot of what he says is vaguely based on fact. Tyrion would furnish the house with whores. I get the sense Littlefinger has sexual designs on Sansa, and Robb should start being nicer to his mother. I wish we saw Jaime this week and whatever became of Greyjoy but the cast is so big. And I love, love that Jon's wolf is on the job fighting for justice and The Watch.

I did enjoy Tywin/Tyrion's conversation. Tywin is such a bastard. I felt for Tyrion. It is a miracle that he survived the cruelty of his father and sister, but then he did have Jamie.

I read the NY Times' article on GOT. HBO's executives doe not sound as enthused about the show as I would expect and seem particularly embarrassed about its fantasy element. Very odd.

      Definitely was more recent than not; when the set originally returned, the change hadn't happened.

      It was nice seeing Victorias house and I see it’s been remodelled. I’m sure this happened awhile ago but since I tuned out from the show for so long I am only noticing it now. Looks beautiful though!  Also, Billy and Sally gross me out so much. I don’t know what it is I hate so much about them. They give me the ick. Definitely a mismatch. I don’t buy that these people would be attracted to eachother in real life much less have a relationship..

      Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them?

      Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.

      Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!

      That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.

      Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.

      I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.

      I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.
