Hbogo has crapped out again. You'd think True Detective crashing it would have had them prepped. Odd thing is they never had this trouble with Game of Thrones last year. Wonder if the user base has just grown that much.

Trading the Walking Dead for Game of Thrones is the Broglio-for-Brock of Sunday TV.

Of course you name your sword.
Lots of people named their swords.
Lots of [expletive].


Classic hound.

His line about eating all the chickens if that dude didn't shut up is one of the best in the series so far.

Last night's episode was great, but I wish they had stuck with the book and had Arya go all stabby magoo on the guy she killed instead of being cool and calculated.

Possible spoiler from the books.
[SHOW]
Obviously she becomes a cool and calculated killer eventually, but with the recent deaths of her mother and brother, she should be an emotional wreck. The killing in the pub should have been an outlet to release her frustration like it was in the book.

That was Ned's sword that they turned into the two Lannister swords. It's made from Valyrian steel. I think there are a limited amount of Valyrian steel swords. And the Lannisters have tried to get one for a long time (the same way they get everything- by buying it). They finally got one, and made two since Ned's sword was so massive.

It was really just a big fat "Yep, the Starks are toast now" scene.

Book readers can fill in anything I have wrong there.
