Ah love watching friends watching the show. First they hate Theon, entered insane torture and Reek soon, "My real father lost his head at kings landing" now they feel sorry for him - the way his real family has treated him like shit when he returned and what not. And soon the same is gonna happen to Jamie, first it was OMG FINALLY THAT ASSHOLE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED! Then they noticed him showing Brienne sympathy and changing in the next episode. And he will change even more once he returns to kings landing. Looooove it. Nothing is fucking ever what it seems to be with GoT. Characters change constantly, and they are finally starting to realize it.

the problem is characters are changing way too fast in the show imo, it should be more slowly and gradually until you realize "wait i dont hate this motherfucker anymore, wtf, fuck you GRRM stop playing with my emotions"

Slower character development in the show is quite literally impossible, unless you have more episodes or cut even more characters.

True that, the books are way better.
But the show is awesome as well, you just don't get as emotionally invested.

haha glad to see I wasn't the only one thinking of Naniwa as Roose xD

Thorzain is more fitting for Robb too.

It's funny, there's a few characters that I like a LOT more from the books (Jon Snow), but there's a few characters (particularly some minor ones) who's development I like a lot better in the show.

Like Margaery Tyrell. They're giving her a lot more lines, and I like it. I think they're doing a good job with that character. In the book you never really get to see how she "plays the game", so to speak, but they show you and develop her a lot more in the show.

I await the reminiscent nerd chills I will get when I hear a Korean broadcaster yell "WEEAAAAVVVVVUUUHHH" while watching Dota

I understand now why I had such a hard time spotting Ramsay in the show, his cast looks nothing like his description in the books, but I like the show version more actually. That little ploy he played off worked so well when he could have that more honest, innocent face to show, right up to the moment when he brings Theon back. That grin then, my god.

Hey, does anyone remember how the Lannisters find out about the Tyrells' plans in the book? It definitely happened differently. But this seems like a believable scenario.

Awesome thanks. Great change in the TV show in that case.
Only pity is that they did introduce Ser Dontos in season 2 without letting him play his true role.

Another perfect episode.

I'm especially glad they pretty much nailed Stannis on the head this episode.

Anyone got a link to the song at the end? I'm pretty sure that was supposed to be sung by the fool but it wasn't too big of a deal I don't think.

Sucks that Ned stark was beheaded, if his body was still intact they totally should have given it to the priest guy and get him resurrected :D

Sorry I read the books a while ago and forgot some of the details -.-

I think Loras Tyrell joins the second tier class of characters, having consumed both his elder brothers.

Another excellent episode. And HBO filled their gay scene quota for the season it seems. The scene with Jaime and brienne was amazing.

And that bit with stannis's wife... You know... The stillborns in jars! Wtf!!! Sells crazy right away

Kinda disappointed by Selyse not having a mustache but oh well. Stannis scene was fantastic. Jaime/Brienne too.

I think they just set up to have Cersei ruin Tywin's plan by arranging Loras' initiation to the kingsguard. That is an interesting opportunity that their character merging created. It is a bit strange to think that they might have her give Tywin the finger in that sort of direct way, but otherwise that would be a neat change.
