I'm glad something interesting happened, before that point I was getting bored of the season as a whole.
Every time I try to get away they keep bringing me back!
Also wish they would explain more characters before introducing even more, still don't know who the hell the kids with Bran are. Now the new dude with Theore and the brotherhood without a banner guys, I'm keeping up but it just seems excessive.

Feels like a lot of other people also had the benefit of marathons/netflix/on demand to watch most of the first 2 seasons in a short amount of time, and now getting less than an hour a week just leaves us wanting more.
The side by side app for the iPad is a great companion. I said the same thing. It was so hard to keep up with all the storylines and kingdoms but this definitely helps.

You might be too new to know this, but the Emma Watson shit got so creepy that the biggest pedophiles ended up leaving FOH and starting their own board.

Like 3 years ago some dude was reading storm of swords at work and I commented how I was reading clash of kings. He asked me if I read the part where they cut off Jaimes hand yet. Thought the dude was trolling me until tonight.

Fantastic episode. "Lord Twat-beard" and Podrick's scene were hilarious. Really like how they're setting up what Dany does to get her army and also getting to see what Theon was going through. And the tension at Craster's Keep. Only small complaint is Edmure looks nothing like how I pictured him.
I don't get what they're going to do with Gendry, though. Since he's replacing Edric, he goes to Dragonstone, almost gets sacrificed then flees to the Free Cities? Doesn't he show up later to save Brienne? Maybe he'll just flee back to the BWB. I guess it's not a huge deal, but this is probably what GRRM was worried about when he mentioned the butterfly effect.

Totally! This season makes season 2 of True Blood look like season 3 of True Blood, AMIRITE?!

i only agree with this on the fact once you get started you will not be able to stop yourself until all 5 books (at this time) are read and enjoyed. if you like to read, read the books and enjoy the fully fleshed out story.

Good times had by all. I talked shit about the last episode but people were in the right by looking on it as "Episode I: Part 2." Even with the entirely unnecessary expositions they insist on giving Cat every episode there was a lot to like besides- though i was sort've at a loss of explaining to a non-book-reader what the fuck is going on with Theon's storyline.
This might be the latent douche in me but I like the breaks from certain storylines. A season and a half of Bran wandering aimlessly in the wilderness with (an albeit well-casted) Jojen and Meera is a snorefest.

My only annoyance was Rob's wife, what a pointless character! Even Ros is more relevant than her...

Best episode of the season so far. I was wondering if they were going to get to the hand cutting. Still miss Vargo Hoat though (Kingthslayer).
I still contend that the added scenes, while some aren't that bad, are taking away from certain storylines. The ones that seems to be suffering the most is Jon and Arya. Showing scenes of Pod getting laid or even Talisa talking fairy tales about Robb to the two Lannister boys could probably be better devoted elsewhere. I get why they need to show Theon scenes, which convinces me that if the show gets to past next season, it'll have to combine scenes from ADWD into Feast of Crows or else half the actors will not be on screen.

I thought it was a great episode, but I was quite disappointed that Sam hasn't killed the Other yet. If they follow the story from here, he will be with Gilly after leaving Crasters and there wont be any Crows to witness the act so its doubtful anyone will believe him except Jon if it happens out in the wilderness somewhere. I always felt that was a real turning point in the character and his increased acceptance by the other crows (especially the core group of Jon's friends) was a big part of it.
