How do we handle Episode 7?

DJariya

Watch it on HBOGo, post in HBOGo episode 7 thread that I created. I made it perfectly clear in title that there will be spoilers. If you don't have HBOGo and don't have the stamina to not look in that thread, then it's that persons fault.

If anyone have any other useful/recommended links, please let me know

MikahC

Great links, and great job. That needs to be in a (stickied?) GoT FAQ/Links thread instead of imbedded in an episode thread where it soon won't be seen anymore.

DJariya

Before this Falls off to Page 2.

This is the episode airing tonight on HBO

The other episode thread..."You Win or You Die" will only be available on HBOGo. Be warned, if you don't have HBOGo and are spoiler-sensitive, do not click on that thread. Wait until it actually airs next week.

superdeluxe

I don't think there is a GoT Faq/links thread. if Djariya could when he creates the new tv threads just put it in like a 2nd post after the 1st post (Which has episode info). I think that would be good.

DJariya

I'll copy and paste your links post for future threads.

Can't wait for tonight. I'm a bit jealous of you guys going through this for the first time, and especially those of you that can watch the next episode on GO. (BTW, can you log into GO from any computer, or do they tie it to a limited amount of machines?)

superdeluxe

I think you can log into it from any computer..I logged in from both my home and work machines. I think you just need your hbogo ID/pw.

DJariya

Any computer. No limits.

starman9000

OK thanks, time I make a call to a buddy.

Groucho

No discussion? Usually we're on page 2 by now. Is everyone off to watch episode 7 ("The One Everybody Will Be Talking About!!!!!!!one1!!!!")?

Ned is the dumbest person on the planet. "Black hair...black hair...black hair...golden hair. OMGWTF!"

MoviePage

It's official...Roz the whore is more important than the direwolves on this series.

starman9000

Loved it.

I wonder where the Dothraki get wood that melts gold in mere seconds but also cooks stew?

JohnSlider

Probably the same place they got dragon eggs.

Thrush

Who was the man who volunteered to be the Imp's Champion?

Merkin Muffley

Bronn, one of the guys they picked up at the Inn when Cat captured Tyrion.

ryuhayabu

Ah the Starks, quick tempers... slow minds...

bdshort

Excellent episode! I was cracking up when Tyrion was confessing his crimes!

I'm also sad that the direwolves so far haven't been seen much...

Viserys - what a way to go!

dalbowski

Can they kill Joffrey now? Please, please, please! And in front of Sansa.

I hadn't realized it until someone pointed it out, but last night's episode was written by Jane Espenson. I would have thought her to be a poor fit for GoT, but I thought the episode worked great and fit in with the tone of the series, so I guess I would have been wrong.

Groucho

Looks like Episode 9 is written by somebody who hasn't worked in TV since the 80's. Hope that goes well.

Cusm

Loved the line by Ned "Then why is Robert King and not Tywinn Lannister". Nice snarky comment to Littlefingers, but also shows how naive he is when it comes to politics.
