I always felt that the Littlefinger scenes at the end of the book basically served as an epilogue that wraps up the original trilogy, as Martin originally intended to have several years pass before the next set of books. It answers pretty much everything except "what the fuck was Varys up to?" whose plots are mostly the focus of book 4/5.

I'd like to see the show make it clear that Tywin knows damn well that Tyrion didn't kill Joffrey. It would be a nice addition, I think. I don't believe that his opinion of Tyrion is so low that he'd accept that he would just stand there like an idiot holding the cup while his wife escapes. He's myopic, not blind. He's just happy to accept a way out of his inheritance problem. Which makes Tyrion's revenge even sweeter.

While he did throw a kid out a window, he also risked his life to save Brienne. That rape scene DID alter the character of Jaime from the books quite a bit, as it's right around this time where Jaime is cleaning up his act and acting properly. In-fact the next episode is named "Oathkeeper".

I really like the recast decision of Daario, I originally didn't mind the first guy, but this new guy is pretty badass. However I feel like the show lacking the distinct traits from people that were in the book is kind of lame. When reading the book you've got to derive the faces and looks of each person from the description and your own thoughts. So when someone's described as having a dyed forked beard, a missing nose, etc. it's something that you think of every time you see the character show up in the book. So that shit missing loses a level to the show in my opinion. Also I feel like that's a good reason why a lot of people that haven't read the books have a hard time remembering the people in the show.

I think Daario suffers from that big time. If he had blue hair, everyone would remember him. But if I were just watching the TV show I'd never remember that guy. There are too many damn characters to expect someone to remember who he is every time he appears.

Despite all the hints from book readers about Daenarys storyline being kind of boring through multiple books, she keeps having some of the most badass scenes.


Tywin was amazing, as always, when he instantly changed Oberyn into a reluctant ally.

Really? You enjoyed the "WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS?!" nonsense for 10 episodes?

Daario not having blue hair/beard is one of the more frustrating choices from the show, especially considering how cheap a blue wig or some dye would be.

Book readers are jaded. A lot of them hated book 4, and some even disliked book 5. Personally I loved them. I really enjoyed all of Dany's chapters as well.

I never even thought of it as BLUE hair, I always imagined he had really dark black that shined blueish, which you see sometimes with dark black hair. However they did specifically say he forked and dyed his beard. That's what I was really looking forward to, but that could've been a case of "better in writing". Since a colorful beard would be kind of odd and out of place. They could have at least did one or two forks on the beard though.

What happens to her - does she get some boats and kick ass with her Dragons?

like superheros sometimes translating poorly to visuals (spandex tights especially) blue hair and a forked beard woulda looked stupid as fuck, like a down syndrome pirate. don't forget he had gold mustache and a gold capped tooth too

Sorta like Delenn from Babylon 5? That's a cool story, Sutekh. Does she also pork one of her captains too or how does that go?

Just watched the episode again. Like everyone, I really love any scene with Tywin in it. The best scene this week for me though was the one with Sir Davos and Stannis' daughter. Really well done IMO.

I changed my mind, he's the perfect actor for this part.
Dean-Charles Chapman - Game of Thrones Wiki
After being cast as Tommen Baratheon during the production of Season 4, Dean told Vulture at the season-four premiere party that he was surprised to discover that his character was next in line for the Iron Throne. "I was like, Whoa!" he said. "I know it sounds silly, but I hadn't read the scripts, and I didn't know what had happened. And then I flew over to Belfast so they could dress me for wardrobe, and the lady said, 'Okay, let's get your crown on.' And I was like, 'Crown?' 'Yeah, you know, you're going to be king!' So I just stood there, looking in the mirror, with this thing on my head, stunned."
