He mentions his wife in two sentences during season 1. Dany is asking him about his background and asks if he has a wife. Jorah says "she's in another land...with another man". :smith: I want to say it was S1 Ep 2 or 3.

Hope Dany flies over to Westeros and burns everything next episode, the end

I did like the shot in the Next Time teaser with Jorah, Daario, and Tyrion sitting around in Mereen's throne room picking at their nails and generally looking bored :lol:

It was the only way forward

Also I'm glad Dany's new husband died like a bitch

I guess he wasn't a Harpy after all.

Also is it too :tinfoil: to wonder if Melisandre lit all those fires in the camp? She seemed awfully chill during that scene, of course she doesn't have any sort of motive unless she really just wanted to see Shireen die.

No way is that fool dead for good, why did I sit through five seasons of boring Wall stuff with only one or two good episodes to show for it? If Jon's dead then how does anything in his story line relate to anyone else? Sam?

I don't think it was a bad episode, it was just horribly unsatisfying for a finale - it feels like we're supposed to get the real finale after all this setup.

The whole episode was an extended teaser for next season, at least to me. Now to cross my fingers that they bring HBO Now to Android platforms by next season.

This was definitely the weakest season of the show for me (only season 3 comes anywhere close) but that doesn't make it a terrible show. Plus they really cranked it up since about halfway through episode 7 but I think that just shows there was a lot of fluff that could have been re-worked.

lol if anyone thought jon snow was actually dead. i don't think book readers thought he was dead for good even then.

It took multiple conversations with my wife to convince her that he's probably not dead for good, but to her credit she doesn't really "get" scripted continuity in television, while I eat this stuff up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For as much as she and I ragged on Jon in the show, her indignation over his stabbing and her declarations of "I'm done with this stupid show" were kind of endearing :3:

Ian mcshane is going to be in season 6? that piques my interest. Is Season 5 worth checking out?

Season 5 felt to me like the world's longest Season 6 trailer. It all came across as set-up, I'd still watch it but I'd so much closer to when Season 6 airs.

Ian McShane is TRENDING. “You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape,” he says. “I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think get a f---ing life. It’s only tits and dragons."

His goal was to weaken most of the great houses and he does this by sowing discord between the Baratheon brothers, the Lannisters, and the Starks. Meanwhile Varys and his buddy from across the ocean are trying to prevent all this, but it's completely out of control by the time Ned gets there. Cersei eventually kills her husband, but not because of any grand scheme, but rather because he was an abusive drunk rapist. Meanwhile, we the viewer/reader are biased because we are being told the story through the eyes of the Starks who distrust the Lannisters even though they are technically innocent 9/10 of season 1!

Is it outright stated that Cersei had a hand in Robert's death? The show goes out of its way to point out that Lancel Lannister was carrying Robert's wine when out hunting, but I always came away from that thinking that Robert just got too drunk and Cersei was really lucky that he died when he did. I don't recall how the book handled it.

Book and show both have problems but the book's problems aren't damaging to the whole story, the show's problems are. Books 4/5's problems are just that it's all build up. They haven't made the real horrible decisions than Season 5 has. Book 4/5 feels like a placeholder book; not that the story has turned bad. It feels like Season 5 has made the story turn bad.

I haven't read past book 1 but I would say that season 5 definitely felt like all build up as well. When I got done watching the finale I remember posting here or telling a friend that I had just watched a 10-hour trailer for season 6 spread out over three months.

I believe HBO Now has become available on a lot of devices. So, no, I think you can access it for $15/month through pretty much whatever.

Oh that's all HBO Now is? Nice, I'm coming up on a year of having this cable subscription so I'm sure they're about to jack the price up on me.
