TV Thread - beware, [expletive] can get spoilery

[Vidor]

I've never seen these, but the concept is fascinating and I've always wanted to.

Another installment of the "Up" series is coming out.

Yep, GRRM nailed it. Felt more like a big-budget summer movie than a TV show. Then again, it was the most expensive episode of the most expensive HBO series ever. General reaction on the ASOIAF forum from non-book readers seems to be enormously positive as well - poor guys waited all season through several dull episodes, and then get floored by Blackwater. I love it.

Oh, and to add, hearing the Rains of Castamere play during the credits was the biggest high-five GRRM could give to his readers. Holy crap I was flipping out.

It was a pretty epic episode. It didn't hit as hard, emotionally, as Baelor. But it was certainly nice.
I know the book readers all ready know, but I don't, I'm wondering if Sansa went w/ the Hound.
Man, lots must happen in the Season Finale next week.

Actually all the books and show are a dream in the mind of Hot Pie.

I do think the out-of-time-sequence of Don and Joan's talk about "the offer" was brilliant and made the whole thing even more gut-punching when you see the look on Don's eyes when she walks into the partner's meeting.

I'm probably dense, but what was the reason for showing it twice in close succession?

You view it differently the 2nd time on knowing she went through with it.

[SHOW]

Yeah. She's putting the emerald necklace away before Don arrives, so he's too late.

Just saw a commericial for Revolution, a new TV show by J.J. Abrams. An EMP (I think) blows out all the electricity in the world, 15 years later the survivors try to cope. Check out post-apocalyptic Wrigley Field at 2:25.

Thanks. Completely missed that detail.

These Breaking Bad posters are amazing. One of them is a big fat spoiler, but if you click on it, it warns you that it's a spoiler (for season 4).

The Hector Salamanca print is my favorite.

Game of Thrones season finale sucked because

[SHOW]

they got rid of the hottest actress on the show.

ghost edit - spoilered since we know your opinion on that
