It has taken me longer than usual to write this week’s recap. Firstly, there is the issue of digesting all of what we just saw. Each storyline has been majorly affected in this episode titled “Children.” In the past I’ve been critical of “Game of Thrones” season finales for being a bit of a let…
Everyone knows when you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. But who’s doing the best, as of season 4 episode 8? (Daenerys is not included as she’s not actually in the game in Westeros). 5. Sansa Stark “The Mountain and the Viper” showed a side to Sansa Stark that has been…

The episode is titled “The Disappointment and the Depression.” Oh no, it was actually “The Mountain and the Viper.” We’ll…
Arya Stark is a very well-written character. Maisie Williams is a great actress. But Arya Stark may be my least favorite character in the Song of Ice and Fire series, book or show. In fact, she may be the most boring. I’ve Think I’ve Read This Before There is nothing wrong with the way George R R…
Game of Thrones is stuffed full of interesting, well-rounded characters but it seems that most viewers tend to focus on a few key players.

I am back from my trek across the Narrow Sea. I saw everything! Daario Naharis’ junk, I rode a boat through the crotch of the Braavosi statue and I even got mistaken as a slaver. I’m all like, “Don’t nail me to a post, guys! That ain’t me.” The red waste, by the way, not…
