Game of Thrones: Season Six

[Nostalgiabuff]

true, but the thing with Renley was a bit different. they were at least rivals and at odds with each other. the fact that he had Davo's fingers cut off for smuggling, after Davos smuggled food to him and saved his life, tells you what a hardass he is






I think Renly was his turning point, or at least was the first horrific demonstration of what Stannis was capable of in the name of blind ambition. Also recall that he sentenced Davos to death for freeing Gendry, but Mellisandre stepped in to save his bacon..[/QUOTE]

I liked him up until the bonfire.

Stanus lives!! he was a major asshat, no doubt, but he is still alive and will be back

[JediJaida]

Oh, him. What's his name again? To me, he was an absolute piece of dreck not worth remembering.

Let's not forget everyone's favorite dad, Tywin Lannister.

As much as I love Tywin, there's another proud papa that holds that distinction..

[Hector]

By the past tenses here...I guess many of them have died since, lol...

BTW, I already knew of Sean Bean's Ned...so while I was already prepared...it still took me back...

I guess it doesn't pay to be a good guy here...

[JediJaida]

Let's not forget everyone's favorite dad, Tywin Lannister. As bad as he was, he didn't quite measure up in the evil stakes compared to Joffrey and Bolton.

[Hector]

Can't wait!

[Nostalgiabuff]

yeah, it is a tribute to the acting and the writing of the show that you just despise some of these characters soooo much. Wait till you meet the ******* Bolton. he makes Joffrey look like prince charming

[JediJaida]

Oh yeah, I DESPISED Joffrey! He was a combination of Caligula, the Marquis de Sade, and Vlad Dracul with a touch of Elizabeth Bathory thrown in.

And Jack Gleeson is reputed to be an absolute sweetheart of a guy too.

[Hector]

Thanks for the spoiler warnings...much appreciated from this newbie, lol.

I just finished season one...and I'm three episodes into season two.

Joffrey, what a villainous little shlt...I despise him...but at the same time...he's great...a character I love to hate...ha...

Awesome show, I'm officially in...

The following clip is from S3 E6, when Mellisandre meets fellow Lord of Light priest, Thoros of Myr. Their discussion about Beric Dondarrion is worth a watch, as foreshadowing of last nite's events..

Oh and two people getting their heads smashed by separate giants in the first ten minutes, win.

Enjoyed the exhale of relief from the Kings Guard when Cersei stood down Ser Robert Zombie
