Lol

the OP should say that HBO will not air an episode next week.

when is something crazy going to happen?

And for the finale on June 9th, make sure the OP lists all the Sundays it won't be airing until the next season.

I had forgotten about the bad ass move Darrio pulled, but when he pulled out the bag it came back to me fast. I know Emilia Clarke was showing her real boobs, but was that really her ass? I noticed we never got a shot of her face and it in the same shot. Just curious.
The production values on this show seem to improve with each week, especially with the "Dragon Unit". Each ep. really does look like a movie in terms of scale.

Only gripe: why didn't Samwell grab the weapon he used to kill the White Walker before running, seeing as how it's the only thing that seems effective?

In two weeks.

Lost the last 10 minutes due to t-storms killing my directv reception, right as darrio was heading into the camp. What did i miss?

Dany's tits. Darrio brought her the heads of the other two guys. He joins her. Sam the Slayer.

Awesome CG on the walker slaying too.

Awkward wedding is awkward. Was the line from Cersei about having the throat cut of Margy in the books? Don't remember it. I'm guessing to probably wasn't. I did like that scene.

Loved Lady Oleena going over the various ways everyone would be related after the weddings

Confused about the name of the mercenary group. I thought it was the Second Sons. However after using Google those mercenaries we saw, including Daario, are members of the Is HBO changing things up?

You can fuck your own bride with a wooden cock.

I vomited on a girl in the middle of the act once.

Probably just another instance of them simplifying things by merging characters (or armies in this case). Way too early to tell if there's any downline impact of that.

They probably chose "Second Sons" over the other group because of similarities that might be confusing to the viewing audience. Sort of how Asha Greyjoy became Yara Greyjoy because "Asha" would sound too much like "Osha" to the ear.

They combined the two. I'm guessing since they use "crow" when talking about the Night's Watch they didn't want people getting confused.

Mero, the Titan's Bastard, was leader of the Second Sons in the book.

Well they pan up initially, so I don't see any reason it would be a body double. They showed her behind in the first season too, she's got a thick booty. Happy to see her naked again.

No Theon scenes, so that should make people here happy.

Poor Gendry.

Doesn't matter, had sex.

Great episode. Lots of awesome confrontations. Fat boy killed the White Walker general, too. That was the dude leading the army in the closing shot of the last episode of the second season. Yeah, we always knew Dany had some nice cakes. You can bounce some jacks off of that thing. Shake it, don't break it!

I did miss next week's teaser, because the DVR stopped recording.

Dario was a badass, too.

Damn this episode had some good nudity.

Thanks, Obama!

Wait

The fat dunce ran off without the most useful weapon in the north. Blah.

A sampling of fine boobage and no Theon makes for wonderful television.

Tyrion was fantastic at the wedding and after. Was it, "And so my watch begins."?

Great Episode.

Loved all of the happenings in King's Landing Olenna Tyrell trying to figure out the family tree lol

Samwell

Way to go, Samwell! First guy to bag a White Walker. Too bad he didn't recover the blade.

Sansa needs to put on her big girls pants and stop fretting about marrying Tyrion. She's married the heir to the wealthiest family in Westeros. He's smart, clever, charming, and kind. And, outside of her brother, he's the only guy who has the balls to stand up to King Shitfuck. Yeah, he's only three and a half feet tall and drunk, but considering most of the other people she's surrounded with, he's Prince Charming. And at least he's not a mean drunk.

...and Seven Hells, could there be more foreshadowing?

I'd think Jaime is the heir as he's older than Tyrion.

Still, you main point remains -- she could easily do worse.

Jaime relinquished his claim on Casterly Rock when he became a Kingsguard.

True, though Tywin doesn't seem too keen on Tyrion ever controlling Casterly Rock.
