EPISODE 2

 

Darn it if I am not enjoying Jamie/Brienne. Sorry, Tormund.

 

And GOOOOOOOOOOO, ARYA!!!! Get it, get it!!!

 

I continue to enjoy the shadefest between Sansa and Dany. But I think I agree with everyone else here. It would appear that maybe Dany cares more about getting that throne than what Jon told her about the parentage. But I would say there was slight disgust on her face...but got over it quickly.

 

Overall,  I liked.

I was very impressed that though there were many hero deaths, not one of them felt repetitive or unearned.

was probably my favourite.

 

It was such a roller coaster that by the time the war was finally done I had to let out a huge breath of relief as if I had been there myself. 

 

Just excellent, beautiful television.

 

As for a selfish request, now that Gendry has seemingly made it through, can I please get my GoTdamn SKINS reunion between Chris and Cassie, please? Something, anything, between the two best characters from that show would be amazing.

 

Negatively, Samwell pissed me off the whole episode.

I called a few deaths but not many.

 

I was shocked by who pulled the trigger at the end. I was not expecting that, but it worked. I have no idea what Bran was doing that whole time - I kept thinking he had to be either warging the Night King to get him where he wanted him, or he had to be secretly part of the NK the whole time. I hope we'll find out.

 

Starting to think between this week and the first two eps they will legit re-pair Tyrion/Sansa in the end, at least as a marriage of convenience. tbh I'd be fine with it.

Forgot to add: As someone who was a big fan of the siege of Winterfell plotline in S2, I was glad Bran got to be the one to give

his last absolution. There was no way that character was walking out of there alive and he knew that going in, but he needed that and as Bran is a favorite of mine I was glad they remembered that beat even as they (and Isaac Hempstead Wright in interviews) keep hammering that Bran is barely Bran anymore.

I saw the post from Sophie Turner. I thought it was very touching.

 

After the mess of season 5, I couldn't keep watching the show, but I have kept up with it. I'm glad Theon got closure with Sansa and Bran, and I'm glad that Theon got to die on his own terms, in a way he could be at peace with. He'd spent all his life as the property of other people, and even the few times he'd had a mind of his own he'd ended up desperately trying and failing to prove himself worthy of the wrong people that he just caused so much pain and damage - to himself and everyone around him. In the end he was satisfied and made his own choice. 

 

Theon was, for me, one of the most complex characters, in the show or in the books, or on television in recent years, and Alfie Allen gave a stunning performance. I'll never forget Theon, and for all my complaints, I'm glad that I got to know him.

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted
