It's my ring tone on my phone. It always gets me pumped up when the show opener starts playing.

Seemed like another slow one.

not a lot of action but stories advanced.

Rickon is back....we have not seen that kid in a really long time.

am I the only one expecting that dothraki temple to burst into flames as it's roof is being torn off?? seems that now that Tyrion released the other two...they might wanna go find momma....they usually only respond when she is in great distress though...so we will probably have to go through the "trial" of the Kals

They called this episode "Oathbreaker"....I am assuming due to Jon Snow walking away from the watch... but that would be incorrect...he died...his watch is over, his oath fulfilled..

The flashback the three eyed raven showed Bran was very cool.... did anyone else notice the female scream before Ned started up the stairs??..... Sounded earily of child birth...I think we are flashing upon the origins of a bastard child...

Dude, seriously...SPOILERS!!! Just because YOU don't believe in them doesn't mean OTHERS don't believe in them. Now you're just willfully being rude.

I really enjoyed this episode. Lots of new little nuggets.

Loved the young Ned Stark scene. "The sword of morning" was pretty badass. Nice little twist as to how Ned defeated him.

Another classic one liner from Tryion, "...Maybe we can't play without drinking"

I also enjoy watching Tryion and Varys working together to keep things running while Dany was stuck in another boring storyline.

Both Dany and Arya are stuck in terribly boring story lines at this point and hopefully that changes quickly.

Glad Jon has decided to leave "the Black". Seems like his story line there had run it's course and he was destined for something more.

I thought it was a good episode - revealed quite a bit, moved a number of storylines along.

The flashback scene to Ned Stark at the TOJ was interesting. Since it was clear that Ned fibbed about what exactly happened against the Targaryan swordsman, what else had he been untruthful about? Jon Snow not being his son? Could be that R+L=J is starting to become a true-to-life theory.

The Bran flashbacks are becoming one of the more fascinating storylines in the show.

I think that is where this is going to go. R+L=J will bear fruit :)

Beyond the sun.
With the dick and fart jokes, I played back the credits just to make sure Kevin Smith didn't write and direct this episode.

Yeah, there was a lot I liked in the episode, and a lot I didn't. That fart joke was embarrassing.

The story is still good, the action is still good, but the dialogue, now that they are totally out of the source material, is noticeably not as engaging as it used to be.

Good episode. The look on Jon's face of betrayal and heartache over what he had to do with Olly. Damn!

not just a matter of belief...I do not know how to do them.. It has been explained to me a time or two in the past but it just does not stick. I really suck at computers...I reserve my willfully rude for one on one events...too many good people in groups.
