So the season was just floating along, with scenes of everyone's contentment. Pretty boring, huh? Robb and what's-her-made-up-character-who-wasn't-at-the-red-wedding's name, Jon and Ygritte, Catelyn enjoying time with the Black Fish, etc. Then...

And next week it the season finale....

George r r Martin can't tweet anymore, because he killed off all 140 characters

Ha!

For anyone who thought Eddard in season one was a one-off stunt...

Red wedding.

Well, that escalated quickly.... Lol.

An anchorman reference to game of thrones makes me very happy for some reason.

not as happy as led zeppelin playing at half time of a Cowboys vs Colts superbowl would, but still.... Lollie

Well, the season finale was a let-down

Generally, it seems like he climax of each season is in episode 9, and then episode 10 is about what is coming up in future seasons.

In the books, he always ends with a bang. Must be the producers who have made that call.

Whatever happened to Bron? I don't remember his last scene in episode 8, did he go on vacation or something?

I seem to recall that he was starting to pull away from Tyrion a bit, now that he has some cash of his own.

In the book, he marries Lollies...the girl that got raped and knocked up in the riot.

That's Ser Bron, to you.;)

Yeah, once Tyrion was no longer The Hand Bron's loyalty went with the money and power.
