Not close to the level he really is. You just know there's something more to him and on the slightly cruel side, not the incredibly cruel side.

I just cannot fathom the non-readers reactions to episode 9. It's going to be so epic.

Yes, but that is how I recall it in the books...he was "friendly" at first, and then once he developed trust, became the real terror.

They haven't even really begun to dive into the bastard and his true character so I've kind of cut them some slack. I'm sure next episode we will get a glimpse of him fricking with Theon and maybe introducing Reek

Is anyone else hoping they let Dany keep her back bone in the show? She has her moments in the book but tends to lose it pretty quickly.

Theon being back to the circle of the Flayed Man, cements his story arch. It was really well done IMO.

Gotcha, I thought you were disappointed in how they did that. I thought it was excellent as well.

That's why I didn't like the past two books as much, it's like he decided to wrote get character differently.

I hope he's not really spoiling it for them. Don't know if he's a reader or not. A simple "If" at the start of that sentence would have made all the difference.

Sure do hope he is a non-reader, or he is going to get DESTROYED when that really happens. Of course, Iluv is flipping out again, when the only book reader post was Bard telling someone to look for answers in the Middle Ground. I am relieved to not be dealing with that shite anymore.

I want to tell her that he isn't a reader, but frick it. They made their bed. They can deal with it. Having book readers in there is the only way they can effectively police the thread,but they want to handle it themselves.


OML, get the frick out of that thread. What is wrong with you? Do you really have no self control?

I'm hoping he corrects that. Otherwise non-readers will stop caring about her. That being said, a lot of the characters lose momentum in the books. I think Arya, Jon, and Tyrion are the only ones that keep up the pace.

Basically stated 3 god damn times in the episode. I deleted it within the minute knowing that Stu would a bitch about it.
