I thought they should have had Catelyn stressing the importance of eating Frey's offerings so they'd be protected guests.
Looking forward to next week and the anticipated cliffhanger.
It's been long enough since I read the books that I'm not even sure what the cliffhanger(s) will be. I'm sure they'll show Jon getting back to Castle Black, and then the Watch preparing for a Wildling attack. They may even end the episode just as the attack has begun. But I'm not quite sure what they'll do with the other threads to end the season.
Well, I never read the books, so the episode was probably the biggest shock I've ever had watching a TV show.
I actually had a hard time sleeping the night I read this part of the book. Having read it already, watching last night's episode didn't hit me as hard, I'm sure.
Spoiler:
Yeah, I don't think they're going there quite yet. Could be, though.
I'm bored and it is summer so I watched Game of Thrones. I watched it after my friends said he likes GoT more than Star Wars and LotR and he is pretty big fans of both. I like more fantasy and adventure personally so I lean towards Tolkien but it is pretty good and Daenerys and Jon Snow carry the show for me.
I am just dreading that people keep saying that the next two books (I realize the next season is still book 3) are mediocre to some even saying outright dreadful.
EEP! I really hope I didn't spoil anything for you! D:

I didn't enter this thread until just now. I haven't read all the posts yet, are there book spoilers not labeled or marked?
I wouldn't say they're mediocre or dreadful. There are still quite a few of fantastically high peaks, mixed in with some more dreadfully low valleys. Unfortunately, there are many more miles than should be between them. I would say that Mr Martin believes, at least to a degree, that a book can be judged by how long it is. The story is not better or worse, you just have to go further to get to the point.
