OT- Game of Thrones S6 E2: Home
I think that this will largely be another set-up episode in most storylines, and I think episde 3 is where all hell will break loose and we will start to see large plot movements at the Wall, at Winterfell, with Dany, etc.
If they really only have 22 episodes to go people need to start dieing...
my prediction is that Snow isn't resurrected today, and that the big deal has to do with the white walkers... maybe the bran scene?
I also thing we see my main man tormund whoop some ass. (seriously, is there a better character HAR!)
I am also vowing to upvote you all and continuing my request to negbang my self... only negvotes can pay for upvotes!
love,
jdon
PS. EDIT: DO we get to see the TOJ tonight? cause that would be amazing!

I mean the books do fall off with FEASTDANCE.
you basically go from Tywin dieing to John getting stabbed with little to no actual progress and just a bunch of travelouges... It's why there are so many theories: jojen paste, who is the high sparrow, what character is masquareding as whom, etc.
However, the septon meribald speech might be the best single soliloquy ever... but it doesnt make for good TV...

I'm such a careless reader. Thanks for posting this.
She's been an old hag all along, just casting a glamour to appear younger and beautiful.
My guess is that she is having crisis of faith, since her visions have proven false (or so she thinks). The choker's ruby was a symbol of her religion, and she has set it aside. She's done so before, though, so maybe that scene wasn't supposed to represent a change of anything except our understanding.
Also Fargo is great and each season is self contained so the writing has to be tight to wrap up everything in 10 episodes.
Fargo is up there with Breaking Bad for me as far as how well done it is. Every detail is flawless, so fantastic.

I'll admit, I'm a bit annoyed with him. I can't blame him, he's striking while the iron is hot. But selfishly I'd like him to hole up and finish the books

They could easily spend enough time. One of the big knocks against GoT from the beginning is that they overcompress the storylines and cut out too much of the story. There was no particular reason they needed to do 10 episode seasons nor that they needed to do 1 book per season. The amount of stuff they've cut out could easily make for another 2 seasons and they would have never been in the circumstance where they over took the books.
TV is an entirely different medium and the storytelling style is different. There's no way the show could go on for ten seasons. Neither the writers, nor the cast, nor the production staff would still be stoked after about six or seven seasons.
I like the story in the show more than the one in the books. Seventy-five episodes will be pushing it, but I think that they can do it. The books will never be finished (by GRR Martin).
Martin quite clearly came out against the Wheel of Time Sanderson Hail Mary and didn't like Frank Herbert's son finishing the Dune series, so we'll likely never see the end of the books as Martin's writers block is too much. I made my piece with the TV show being the end of the story long ago.

Outlander on Starz is the only other show besides GoT that i need to watch right now. The second season just started and it's not as good as the first but I'm hooked on the story. I'll eventually read the books someday. Very good show from the writing to the sets/costumes to the production value. Top notch all around.
The series might be a bit under-hyped considering it's by Amazon Prime (like, the 8th best way to watch TV), but it's definitely got an interesting plot, centering around the Allies hypothetically losing WWII resulting in Nazi/Japanese occupation of the U.S.
It's pretty good. Very watchable with the main drawback being that the least interesting characters are the two leads.
Penny Dreadful starts up again tonight. Back on topic I think the Wildlings kick some Crow ass tonight.
