As a book reader I knew the Oberyn/Mountain outcome but damn...that was beyond brutal and left me feeling a little uneasy. I grew to like Oberyn much more than in the books so I can only imagine how non-book readers felt especially after he essentially "won".

Not looking forward to an entire "wall" episode though. I'll report back if my expectations are blown away.

Same.

I am a little "blah" about the whole episode being at the wall. I want to see the oberyn backlash/tyron/sansabaelish, etc.

I've read the books as well, and these next two episodes should be pretty bad ass.

Yeah, cable companies are all dumb. You can watch the pilot episode for free on showtime.com though:

Penny Dreadful is a pretty good show imo. It's a blend of all the famous/infamous monsters into one story done in a really good and not-cheesy way. Plus, there are bewbs.

Anyone watching that new show Crossbones with John Malkovich? Seems cool so far.

LOL someone around here has a gif with the super-douche mini-car dude was driving in that show. I have yet to give that show a try.

Same here, I liked it alot.

Also saw the premiere of Halt and Catch Fire..... tech shows are starting to catch on lol.

Though I am always looking for faults in the writing.... with tech stuff they often like to write shit just to make it sound complicated so 99% of the audience will not question the TV Actor Computer Genius.

I do the same thing with Bear Grylls. As he squeezes out water from elephant poop I can see two other ways to procure water in the area that don't involve ingesting fecal matter. anything for ratings I guess.

So I am sure book readers know, and some show people may have had it spoiled already.... but someone dropped a book spoiler on me today at work about Tyrion's fate.... I will not say anything about it obviously.... but I wanted to smack somebody for dropping a spoiler like dat!
