Man, that opening scene was cruel.

I fear they are going to kill Jon.

Nah, the Nightwatch already tried stabbing him in the heart a couple dozen times and it didn't take. Why reveal he's a Targaryen and then kill him?

...because the show's writers are absolutely, fuckin' mad. In a good way. They killed Ned for godssake. I cried. After they killed Ned I knew they'd kill anyone. They burned a child tied to a stake. They slit the throat of the beloved wife of Ned.

I loved it when they killed Joffrey. I may have even applauded.

Ned had to die. Arya and Sansa would still be living their innocent, ignorant secluded lives in Winterfell if he was still alive.

Ohmaigawds. One of the dragons is a white walker. Wah!

Because of you loving this show so much, I happened to click on it last night and watched the last 20 or so minutes of it.

I saw one of the fire breathing dragons get killed, and the "good guys" battling "thousands" of what looked like mutants!

As it turns out, I don't think this show is my cup of tea.
(Not that you would care, that's just me)

I understand it's not for everyone. Hell, I don't even normally like fantasy programming and I can't explain how I'm able to suspend belief for this particular show.

Ohmaigawds! Season finale tonight. Then one final season. Wah!

That mushy stuff with Dany & Jon was revolting. "My Queen". Oh barf.

Yeah, its not Game of Bone, its Game of Thrones.

Next time on As the Throne Turns....

I gotta find time today to watch the finale or I'm going to inadvertently hear about it.

I need to find an engaging show that has more than a half dozen episodes a year.

No spoilers. But I will say I think they answered a lot of questions and wrapped up things quite nicely.

@Tammy75!

Oh my God, I dreamed last night I was working for a ski lodge and the employees had to stay in a small cabin at the top of a snowy mountain. In my dream I had to pee and the bathroom was teeny tiny and I reached into the sink and there were.... hamsters. I was hollering to my fellow coworkers that were outside the door, "Help me, Help me, Help me" meaning they needed to get these hamsters out of the sink and it woke up my husband, who grabbed me and told me he was here to help (that last part was real, not a dream ). He told me this morning, when he was telling me that he was here to help, I looked at him and told him I had to go the bathroom and that I got up and went to the bathroom.

I just remembered all the dream this afternoon but my poor husband has been up since 3:30 this morning.

You might understand why I was working on a snowy mountain once you watch it.

You have some very blingy herpes blisters, rock on sista!

My son recently started watching this and said it was really good and I should watch it, but I shouldn't let Jayne watch it. Is it really that bad that a 6 year old kid shouldn't watch it? I don't care about the violence, never did with the other kids either and they're not serial killers, but he said this show is pretty bad.

The only reason I ask is because she's up every night at the time I would want to watch it. I can't stay up much past 10, I gotta take my fat ass to sleep.

Graphic violence, graphic sex that includes incest, and the use of words like cunt. It's the most vulgar show I've ever seen. It's also my favorite.

Boardwalk Empire was like that.

Sex education, vocabulary building, political education, learn the world is filled with violence, etc.


Very educational. Sally's six year should watch it.

I don't mind the curse words or even violence, I used to let my son play grand theft auto when he was little and he was mature enough to know it was just a game. I even let them watch Scarface and Jay and Silent Bob. But if there are graphic sex scenes I can't let her watch that. Apparently this show goes way past just flashing some boobs.
