HBO's Game of Thrones Season 5....current episodes, no future spoilers

[Glittercat]

We bought an Apple TV yesterday and for the first time ever are caught up on the Season! I do like that we are getting a chance to see a lot more of the world this season! So many deaths so little time. Curious to see Arya's trajectory as she becomes the girl, worried for Sansa though the character still seems weak, love Margaery, but did not expect her to be so cruel and condescending to Cersei. Brienne <3 Hello fellow Game of Thrones fans! *waves*

Yeah...it's it great!! I don't care who it is - I love seeing Cersei get her's (insert diabolical hand-rubbing smiley here). She's been an arch villainess since Bran Stark was pushed from the wall (about the 3rd chapter of the first book)...

Ok I am obsessing on the No man - he is so hot. Real name Tom Wlaschiha, German actor.

A man is gorgeous. A girl might have hollered right out loud when a man reappeared in the previous episode.

I guess Sansa's world didn't suck enough...now this. I can only hope she has a plan and is about to go all shades of crazy on the Boltons.

Speaking of Bran...whatever happened to him?

Let's keep that a surprise for you - shall we? (Insert another diabolical hand-rubbing smiley here!)

I read the books (and honestly I forgot almost as much about them as I can remember). I'm just wondering why they haven't shown him so far...and also why they haven't shown a certain other character I thought they'd have introduced by now.

I have a theory about how it all wraps up. Or maybe it's how I'd LIKE it to wrap up LOL.

Theorize away - that may be as close as we ever get to finding out. I truly cannot believe that GM has not been able to finish the 6th book in the past 4 years...

Another here to say a man is ridiculously attractive. *blush*

I'm having trouble remembering from the books too (and it has been like 15 years since the last book so maybe that's why...LOL). Can I throw out a theory my DS has, and I so hope he is wrong, but he thinks that Sansa will take her mom's place as Lady Stoneheart. Better not!!!!

Bran's storyline isn't running this season, I think. I want to say it's partly because they caught a lot of his book story up last season, but I could be wrong.

Bran will not be in Season 5.

Good...the Bran storyline is B_O_R_I_N_G!!!!!

Pretty mich just just waiting for Brienne to die, since I love her and that's how his show works!

I believe I read something that said he isn't even in this season at all!

ETA: oh look, that was already posted :-/

I haven't read the books so I could be WAY off, but I think Sansa and Ramsey could make a good duo! He's psycho and she has this huge vendetta...It could work in their favor.

This is a good way to look at it. And I think I will. Ramsey still scares the snot out of me. Thankfully Sansa has experience with the crazies, I wonder how she'll deal with him. (Please let her keep that backbone).

 

[Jennasis]

I'm not surprised there won't be any Bran. The show is quickly outstripping the book.

That's what I said about Pod the other night! I adore him, and that just means heartbreak ahead.

I don't really love any character right now...maybe Tyrion. I loved Oberyn and we see how that ended...not good for Tyrion then.

I've read the series 5 times (each time a book has been published). I thought I was a purist, but I have to say that I'm really enjoying the departures that the showrunners have taken so far. Books 4 and 5 do too little to advance the plot for their length (I'm especially looking at you, slog otherwise known as Dance). Obviously the show has to strip down and/or alter the storylines to fit the number of episodes, but many other smaller changes just seem to work better. For example, having Jaqen H'ghar as Arya's teacher at the House of Black and White is much more effective/interesting to me given their history than a new Faceless Man character. I hope GRRM takes the hint and stops with the verbosity in Winds of Winter, although it's probably unlikely. I wonder if part of why Winds has been delayed yet again is if some of it is being reworked with the show in mind.

I don't think my heart could take it if she died. Brienne and Tyrion are my top favs.
