Happy they brought Jon Snow back early too, didn't let it linger all season as you would normally expect the makers to do. 
Oh and how much of an awesome angry grumpy bastard is Wun Wun. What a colossal error it was to accidentally shoot him with an arrow.

Wun wun is one of the giants right ? if there's one criticism of the show it's that they talk a lot about them but them ( and for that matter Gregor Clegane ) have done fuck all so far. Hope they all feature more as it progresses.

Unless it plays a vital part in the final wash up, Dorne should have been left out altogether. It has been comically bad and wasted valuable time. 
The Roose thing is a bit weird. No way would that have happened in the books. The dog thing. Hell yes! 
I do like the flashback thing. Would be cool if they showed the Brandon Stark vs Littlefinger "duel".

I am willing to bet that Wun wun dies ins some attempt to show how 'dangerous' the white walkers are.

I think they killed Dorne off as soon as they were told by Martin how the books finished.. I reckon they got told how it ended and went.. 'and how the fuck does Dorne relate to this? why did you get us to build all this up?'
 
I blame Martin and nobody else if Dorne is a dead end plot.

Yeah I can kinda picture that but you can bet the big fella will take a few of them with him.
 
Quite funny that the new Khal joker is a kiwi, obviously Samoans and Hispanics all look the same to international audiences. Pretty sure he played NPC rugby back in the day. Definitely played for Glasgow too.

Rancid Schnitzel

I wonder where Rickon is? Davos sure ain't looking for him. The Black Fish must be out there somewhere too.

The tears in my eyes when I read Hilary Barry was resigning rendered all other news completely irrelevant so I missed that.....

Didnt he pretty much give them the ending when the series started? If Dorne was a dead end they should have known before season 6.

They had no choice but to include Dorne/the sand snakes due to the flagging amount of new titties we were seeing.

that would imply he has an ending, which with the multiple storylines, how you get there is a long and winding road.

No he only told them when t became obvious that they were going to pass the books. 
 
Possibly end of 2103?

I'm pretty sure they knew the ending in the event the fat bugger carked it but in this instance were after more specifics. Who knows, Dorne may play a part. Two of those ridiculous sand bitches appear to be at Kings Landing and are very likely after Tommen.

Must have missed that bit. Was that last night?

Rancid Schnitzel

They must have been there to kill the prince in the boat in E1. Just don't question why he was still onboard and how the skanks got there. In fact why didn't they just poison the lot of them and be done with it. Seems a bit complicated to poison the girl then sail to KL to kill the boy. How fortunate he was still onboard!

Crucial

I didn't even pick up that he was on a boat. I forgot that he went with them at the end of last season.

Nepia

Some spoilers ahead ....

I'm not sure the heart is the correct body part to be discussing when thinking about Natalie Zea.
 
 
The Walking Dead:
So I've been avoiding this thread for a few months now because all you Williss kept spoiling the shit out of TWD but now I've finally watched all of the latest season. The first half of 8 episodes was awesome, constant action, none of the dumb plotting that TWD usually does to get their characters in peril. It was awesome action, action, and more action. And then the second half was back to normal. Characters doing dumb things, odd characters hooking up all of a sudden, etc etc. I don't like the actor player Negan so that's another black mark, but at least I'll be happy when someone finally kills him.
 
The Americans:
[spoiler]Nina Sergeevna you have been found guilty and sentenced to death, BANG (none of this pussyfoot TWD fake out shit either) . Still the best drama going in my opinion even if it hasn't reached some of the heights of last year (body put in bag, teeth etc).[/spoiler]
 
Weirdly, now that I don't have a commute that involves walking, ferry and trains I don't watch as much TV as I don't get 60 minutes a day on the ferry to watch stuff and I obviously do other shit with my extra time now.

you probably need to learn how to do spoilers...I haven't started The Americans yet!
