I think Joffrey is on the short list of death right now.

Why do I think this?

1) Cersei can't seem to control him, and she loves being the Queen (i.e., she likes power).

2) The wedding to Marjorie makes Cersei more or less irrelevant. That's probably eating away at Cersei. She has to be scheming behind the scenes.

3) Joff just fricked with the one man in Westeros you don't frick with; Tywin Lannister. If Tywin senses that Joff is becoming more like the "mad king"....well you saw what happened to Aerys Targaryen. With Joff "out of the way", Tommen becomes next in line, but both Tywin & Cersei can rule for many years until he comes of age.

4) The leeches, brah.

Would Cersei resort to plotting against her own son? Nothing in this series surprises me anymore, so it's entirely possible.

I think now even Ceresei has conceded that Joffrey is evil - a bad seed that can't be allowed to live.

Her biggest weakness is she loves her children, probably the only reason why he's still alive at this point of the show.

I would be suprised if Joff tard made episode 5 next season which with my track record with this show means he kills everybody and becomes king of the world.

Jaime will probably go back to Casterly Rock and take Lordship now that is can no longer be a Kingsguard, I suspect they will let him go.

He wants to be with Cersei though right? I guess losing the hand does give him a way out of the Kingsguard.

Bolton will probably get stronger and exert control over the North.
I don't know. He'll have to deal with the walkers and the Greyjoys, and the north is gonna take the brunt of the walker invasion. He's smart though.

Stannis, dude is weird and arrogant but he will probably rally people into the north to defend against the WW but not sure how that fits into his Throne seeking campaign.
Maybe he thinks he can build an army and play hero.

Pretty sure I know what you're talking about. I spoiled it for myself a couple days ago by accident. Could just be speculation, but they're pretty specific.

The show is starting to take The Walking Dead approach. Using the source material as the basis but going way from being exact. What I mean to say is, it's getting to the point to where readers don't know exactly what will happen. The Walking Dead show is 90% different than the books and GoT is about 40% different from it's books and steadily climbing.

From the clues in the television series only - I believe that Snow is the son of Ned's sister and Rhaegar Targaryean.


Me too. Which is why I think Dany and Snow hook up in the end--Targs like incest (keeps the bloodline pure + this unites the "first men" by the distaff with the conquerors for a nice symmetry).

and get shanked in his sleep. please please please. Like I said earlier, I think Joffrey or Tywin go out early next season, those two just cannot coexist much longer.

I can kinda see that, but Joffrey really doesn't have any power. I don't see anyway that he could have Tywin killed. I could however see Tyrion or Sansa or someone else take Joffrey down

Glad I wasn't paying attention to what they said, it apparently went over my head.

Do you all think at some point everyone will be forced to rally around a king or queen in order to defeat the white walkers? I am not sure whether this will happen or not as it could make the whole tale very boring. If it does happen I doubt it is next season.

Not exactly. I think someone taking the lead in battling the white walkers could bolster their claim to the throne with the people. Stannis maybe.
