If it's running too slow for you that's probably the best thing to do. May do this myself. It feels as though an hour a week just isn't long enough at times.

exactly
Maybe instead of 12 1hr episodes it would be better as a 6 2hr per episode mini-series.
But we all know that will never happen.

Its 10x1h episodes, not 12

probably just me but I have found this season far more boring than the first. In fact I find myself watching the Borgias first thing Monday before even watching Oame of Thrones even.

well to be fair the Borgias has been great this season. Im shocked Irons doesn't get more attention for the job he is doing in this show.

You make it sound like all the characters have remained exactly where they were at the start of the season and that every episode is just talking that is also completely meaningless to the plot.

ok why do people who have read the book always make it a point to mention that they read the book when they post??

The same reason why sword guys always have to talk about how cool their sword is.

Winter is coming is the Starks words and since the head of the House is nowadays headless, it's no one to say it around anymore. Also Robb is still a summerchild I think and hasn't really experienced any northern winter...

If HBO is only making 10 episodes per season they should have made them 90 min episodes.

I liked ep. 5 but you do notice things like no Sansa, no Robb Stark, no Jamie Lannister and no Goffrey this week.

Btw, does Theon actually end up fighting the Starks and attack Winterfell??

I can't quite put my finger on it. But this discussion reeks of spoilers. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth, like leek.

HBO has also cut season 2 a bit. Episodes from season one I reckon ran at an average of 56+m. Now they have cut at least 5 minutes.

It could definitely work as a miniseries, but I'm not sure 10x90minute episodes would work. I wouldn't mind, because I like the character driven plot, but a lot of people want more action instead.

As for Theon. Do you really want to know? Use spoiler tags next time, thank you.

@Drevo.. or an onion? Spoiler-tags nigga.

so... any complaints about e06?

so much goodness in less than an hour.

john, arya, theon, bran, sansa, all had great moments, finally daenerys story progresses and seeing tyrion bitchslap the bastard prince again was pure gold :thumbsup:

dare I say it? best episode so far.

I can only agree

especially since now that Littlefinger figured out who Arya was and one can only hope that she asks Jaqen to kill Tywin, but i think thats too obvious and she'll prolly choose someone else (havent read the books

lol, from the imdb forum on tonights ep:

Quote:

how much nudity was in tonights episode?
The kid really wants to watch this. Gotta know from beforehand. Thanks.

and one of the answers:

Quote:

A run down of not so friendly things for children:
- Osha (your kid would know him as Tonks) gets full frontal and talks about getting savage on Theon. This will destroy his Harry Potter childhood.
- Sansa is almost violently gang-raped. No nudity, but on the verge of hardcore. Will give your kid ideas about how ladies really like it.
- Random women have their clothes torn from them in a riot. Don't take him on a subway after this.
- Knights slaughter unnarmed peasants in a riot. He'll want to be a cop.
- Unarmed peasants "un-arm" an unarmed priest. He'll also want to play Football.
- Theon chops off Rodrick's head a couple of times before landing it with a kick. This is actually a positive, he'll strengthen his arm muscles chopping wood for practice.
- Dany talks about whoring herself out for dragons. He'll learn what the term "Prostrate yourself" means.
- Dany's entire khalasar is found murdered. He'll say "awesome" and give the cat weird looks.
- Osha gets up close and personal promising to spill seed before spilling blood. He'll look up sex and pain on the Internet. Lifelong S&M fanatic after.
- Ygritte teaches Jon Snow about the little spoon and light petting. Next episode she promises to let him go under the shirt. This is innocent, he's probably already gotten at least to second base putting him years beyond Jon Snow.
- The Hound massacres some rapey peasants with guts all coming out. He'll want to be a rogue cop or vigilante.
- Amory Lorch eats it via poison dart ala Arya sans Faceless Man. He'll fancy himself a ninja rogue cop.

What a fucking episode! Awesome but I don't like 'em changing so many things... Like when they kill the whole Khalasaar... That just complicates things for the rest of the show...

Things haven't gotten complicated yet. Wait and see.
