Was totally hoping for more of an epic reaction to the White Walkers being known to the Lords of Westeros, like at least a compilation of shocked faces as everyone reads the note and basically starts saying their death vows. Ending was pretty boring and I couldn't watch because I kept thinking someone is going to fucking stab her in the crowd lol. Dat ending was like a story book ending out of Disney, cue uplifting music, magical creatures and a crowd of joyous people. Now the long wait begins, guess I'll take this time and actually start reading the books. Most of them probably don't believe in the White Walkers, if this is any indication: Similarly, when the recruiter fellow (and Tyrion, was it?) ended up returning, the Small Council dismissed the talk of dead men walking as fantasy. Which is ironic. Also, by all means, start reading the books. Then you can join us in the *spoilers* thread as we trade tinfoil/crackpot theories cooked up over almost two decades of waiting. | ||

I seriously wanted to jump in there and slap him in the face. Jesus christ, that one act made me so mad.

Arya goes buck-nutty on a Frey soldier's head. The boy is finally revealed as Bolton's bastard, Ramsey Snow. Yara gets her brother's penis in a box and goes to make war on Ramsey Stannis and his army are heading to the Wall. But people on this site are actually saying the episode was meh and they needed better cliffhangers? Man you people are spoiled. What's better than Stannis getting ready to head to the wall and possibly meeting up against Mance Rayder's wildling army? | ||

It's the best show I've ever watched and it's crappiest episode I will still watch a thousand times more than anything else. But we just got off of the best episode in the entire show's history and that's still fresh in our minds, only natural to be let down. | ||

Eh, it wasn't the only male reproductive organ we've seen in a box. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://24.media.tumblr.com/e7efdbbd3b0040d0311d13722b1a6dd7/tumblr_mklc7n6GxX1r3mu3co1_1280.jpg) But in general, post-Red Wedding, everyone's jaded and has high expectations (or low life expectancy expectations, depending on your PoV). | ||

If there is one thing I have learned from watching GoT it is that you are NOT in doubt if one of the main characters is killed off. | ||

But we just got off of the best episode in the entire show's history and that's still fresh in our minds, only natural to be let down. I'd argue that Blackwater was the show's finest episode, yet I get your point kinda. The Red Wedding was the shows best twist. Still, the show would be silly if it had a major twist every episode. There was some serious character development in that episode. Where are Arya and the Hound going to go? How will Jaime deal with seeing Cercei again? Will there be a love triangle developing between the two and Brienne? What's in store for Reek? Will Yara rescue him from the Dreadfort with only 50 men? Stannis and Mance Rayder are both marching on the Wall. What the hell is going to happen there, especially with a leaderless Knight's Watch? What is the Tyrell's game? What is Varys's? What is Littlefinger up to in the Eyre? Find out in 9 months!! The slight letdown, if there is one might have to do with how they produced the show. Season 1 was book 1. Season 2 was book 2, Season 3 is only about 1/2 of book 3, so there's a bit of clunkyness there. If you view Season 4 as a continuation of season 3 instead of a completely new season, I'm sure you'll get the payoff you're looking for. | ||

Nope, her character is the best in the show. Dany, arya and tyrion are the three best characters in the show. | ||

He would be believed. If she shot him in non vital areas its because she liked him too much to kill him, but not enough to not try.Yeah, I don't think it's a coincidence that she managed to hit 3 straight non-vital spots on a moving target. Poor girl... | ||
