Didn't we have a GoT tv-thread, specifically to not expose anyone to the inevitable spoilers?

This is the GoT TV thread.

Any odds on HBO hiring Brandon Sanderson for a undisclosed job for a substantial undisclosed fee?

Bring on the allomancers, feruchemists and hemalurgists.   :P

Wow Harry the Heir is a lucky guy.  It is sorta trippy to see Arya all girlied up.

BtW, I thought the last episode was great.  Heavy on character development, which is one of the prime reasons ASOIAF is so interesting to begin with.

*However*, I still can't get into the Dany storyline.  Apart from her tedious self-righteousness, it just seems like she is a kind of modern shoe-horned into an otherwise pre-modern world.
I really love Dany story.  She has the best written part, imho, and it's often heavy in symbolism, like that last scene, with her newly freed people and her disciplined army.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Good, boobies in season 6!

We won't see sansaboobs ever. I suspect we won't see many more boobs for the rest of the series. The show is getting so big that there is no longer any need for sexposition to get viewers. Like Sopranos I think they will showing gratuitous boobage once they had established a loyal viewership. We never saw meadow soprano's boobs, I don't think we will see any boobs from any character which started as a child. It would creep me out. Jamie-Lynn Sieglers glamour shots creeped me out. Seeing Sophie Turners or Maisie Willams' boobs, even once they are well legal,, will creep me out as well.

Any sexy boobage in the future will have to come from the dusky woman, the vipers paramour or a sand snake.

Sansa Stark is still 14 in the show, IIRC, or maybe 15.  The time is kinda slow moving, so unless there's a flash forward in time, she'd still be considered an underage character (even if she's older than 18), so it would forbidden on US tv.

That's who she reminded me of. It was bugging me since this morning.
