The Only "Game of Thrones" Recap You'll Ever Need



Here’s what happened on last night’s episode of “Game Of Thrones”:

People with confusing names like “Lord Gulletcrumb” and “Sir Blackraven” and “Clod Bannister” ate meat chunks with their fingers and drank wine out of silver cups while staring menacingly at each other.

When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die, but first you talk and talk and talk and talk.

A Lannister always pays his debts, next episode.

There were double-crosses and triple crosses and then a totally random, soft-core threesome.

There’s no crying in Westeros. There’s also no laughing or smiling or singing. There is only growling, whispering or screaming in pain.

Everybody underestimates this tiny pimp, until he proves he's Master of the Sick Burn or just straight-up slaps a brat with an open palm and then everyone is all "Oh, you got told."

Winter is coming. It is really, really, really close.

That person you don’t want to die who is good and noble dies a horribly death, and that person you do want to die who is vile and cruel will live and drink wine out of a silver cup.

An old Shakespearean character actor delivers a line about “honor” and “vengeance” as if he was playing Richard III in a regional theater production.

Dragon Lady has a destiny, which we know because she’s always shouting about it.

There’s the king, and the rightful king, and the once and future king, and bunch of pretenders-to-the-throne. It’s confusing, but don’t worry. There will be boobs and/or slaughter soon.

Absolutely no one bathes. Blood is used as a hair product.

Someone gets disemboweled. Someone gets beheaded. Someone gets his or her throat cut. There’s jugular spurt. Guts splatter. Then, later, gratuitous boobies.

Map scrolls are unrolled. Fingers stab the unrolled map scrolls.

Hodor.
two thumbs up
still a great show
 
yeah good move ... did it months ago ... you won't miss it.

How doth thou keepest thine internetz without cable?
I looked at the bill once and it was like:
phone: $2
tv: $3
internetz: $100

it's a total scam to keep you from getting rid of tv and phone service. You don't actually save any money

:mad:
 
since getting rid of cable i have endlessly more stuff to watch ... it's almost to the point of annoyance.
 
there is no Season 3 ... it ends this Season ...
but yeah agree with the inconsistencies ... i still dig the main 2 characters a lot.
 
I have to watch Carnivale soon because I've been borrowing the DVD set from a friend for at least a year now... and have yet to put the first disc in.

Millenium is really fuckn' good. Also Farscape has yet to grab me but it's on a steady uphill climb and people tell me Season 2 and up is when it gets amazing.

Backed off watching Twin Peaks. I'll get to that later. It's good, I just don't have the time/effort to dedicate myself toward it.

Californication I'm done with after 2 seasons, fun but also maddening.

I started watching the original Dark Shadows. Fucking HILARIOUS. So bad. So good.

True Blood new DVD set comes out soon, which means I'll be watching that. Sure it's a soap opera, but the vampire sex scene was like the third coolest thing I've ever seen, so I'll keep watching in hopes of something that great happening again.

I've never paid a cable bill in my life, although 11 years ago with roommates we did have some sort of dish thing that was tacked onto the rent. Paying to be advertised to is just... weird. I'll gladly rent and purchase DVDs though. And I do have cable internet, which helps me watch television shows via Netflix Streaming. Whoops!
 
Tried watching the last season of Rescue Me for the second time last night, complete and utter shit. Leary should hang is fucking head in shame for turning this show in to Days of Our Lives. In the 1st 20 minutes we have Leary going with his wife to the fertility clinic, where she ends up driving in to him in the parking lot over some cockameemie dispute. We got blond bint and Sheila laughing in the most forced and farcical manner over the thinness of his legs. Lastly, the coup de grace, the short ass coon firefighter coming to Puerto Rican papi for relationship advice in the firehouse. Dude fuck firefighters, all of them are egomaniacs (know a fuck ton of em, have yet to meet a cool one), why the fuck did I ever watch this ass of a show? There's not even tits, Leary fucks everybody through their undergarments, wtf? TV is ass, listen to metal, stop being fucking fags!
 
There's not even tits, Leary fucks everybody through their undergarments, wtf?
LOL. This has always been a pet peeve of mine. I don't think I've ever had sex, where at the end, the woman still had her top on.

TV is ass, listen to metal, stop being fucking fags!
The final season of Rescue Me was OK, for what it was. But yeah, the series had definitely seen better days.
 
Denis Leary wants me to buy a Big Ford Truck so that I can prove my manhood to the neighbors, and by manhood I mean tiny little bitch balls.
 
so it's 4 days to election day in The Killing (in the last episode) ... the show has to end there ... so we have 3-4 episodes left tops.
 
Where did you read it's only seasons?

they are copying the Danish version ..., which was 2 seasons. actually less episodes even, 20 total.

btw ... wife watched the Second "series" of the Danish Killing which was a new mystery with only 10 episodes and said it ruled.
