Think its mostly people relating to the biggest halfwit that resembles them ^^ | ||

really loved seeing how King's landing was revolting I just wish the Starks know that Tyrion has always been a guardian for Sansa when they take over King's Landing, so they might spare his life I also noticed that while the rapists got killed by the Hound, I dont think he noticed the last one I knew it..I knew Dany would get her dragons stolen...that's why I hated the idea of her going to a city with only a small group of people when everyone knew she had dragons somewhere. | ||

It is supposed to be the queen regent but I think the Hand has more power than her in that specific situation, isnt Tywin lord protector of the realm as well ? that title certainly would give him more title than the queen regent | ||

If a king, a priest and a rich man all bid a sellsword to kill the other two men... who lives and who dies? It's not always as simple and obvious as "The King outranks The Hand, therefore The King has power." | ||

But it was an okay episode, was quite funny how arya's friend killed the guy with the poison dart lol. All I can say is that the writers needed to do it like this for the story to make sense. That, and we should open a donation site to give Danearys some acting lessons, I had an incredibly hard time watching her scene talking with the fat dude... The show is awesome though! Many of the actors are doing a great job. I especially like Arya (who doesn't), Catelyn and Theon...and Tyrion...and Hodor...and Baelish...Sansa...The Hound...yeah. and so on, and so forth (except for Danearys, she sucks). | ||

Don't know if it has been posted yet, but I just watched it myself. I'll just spoiler tag it in case people don't want to know what happens in the trailer yet. Trailer spoilers and speculation for the next episode: + Show Spoiler + Yay for more Sansa/Sandor and Tywin/Arya. Also, is that Shae who's pulling the knife? | ||

Personally I'm only just coming to like arya in the last two episodes or so. I loved Seryo in season 1, so I've liked most of her scenes, but her specifically I only recently came to look forward to watching. Catelyn I can't stand. Sansa I hate. Baelish makes me sick, but in "wow I can't believe that just happened" way, not an "this displeases me" way. I love the Hound, such an interesting character. Joffrey is a little one dimensional - spoiled, sadistic, and stupid. Theon I can tolerate, he makes sense to me, and his pretty damn good. Hodor is Hodor (whatever that means). I've said it before though, Daenarys is an AWESOME character in the books right now, but so much of her story is an emotional struggle that you just can't tell so well in the show. I really wish that they could do her better justice. | ||

Why can't you stand Catelyn, is it the actress or just the part she plays in the story at this point? I think she plays the role pretty much perfectly. | ||
