Game of Thrones (HBO)

[Montrovant]

I've read them all. I wish George R. R. Martin would get off his ass and finish the thing.

And then I still want moooooorrrrreeeee..........

Martin wrote and published a lot before A Song of Ice and Fire, actually.

I read somewhere that the director complimented the guy that plays Joffrey. He said to him "congratulations. You are hated".

Yes, he is a great actor to pull it off so well. He looks like a sniveling cowardly creepy punk, which helps. But I wonder if this role will affect him in real life. You know how folks are...they don't see the actor. They see the character at all times...until he gets a new character in another show, anyway.

Same reason I refuse to watch Boss. Kelsey Kramer will always and forever be Frazer Crane to me. I don't want to ruin that.

Kelsey Grammer is wonderful in that series. I had Starz before I moved back here but I didn't pick it up again for this season of Boss.

NOT the director. A letter from Martin himself.

And I had no clue Jack was on Batman, lol.

The actor who plays Joffrey on Game of Thrones got a letter from the author congratulating him on how hated he is! - OMG Facts

She would - but remember, she has THREE dragons. Who will ride the other two?

I already have a guess as to one of the other dragon riders. My daughter has suggested the third.

No GOT tonight?? I can't find it on tv guide at all.

 

[SFC Ollie]

I don't see it on the guide either????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[SFC Ollie]

Everything i see on line shows nothing this weekend, picking back up next Sunday.........

 

[gallantwarrior]

Waahhh! I missed GOT. Fell asleep until almost midnight. I'm reading the first book. Follows the first season pretty closely, though. Even the dialog matches.

June 2nd.

 

[Montrovant]

I wonder why they decided to take one week off, 8 weeks into the show? Odd timing.

 

[gallantwarrior]

an extra long commercial?

Based on rules made up prior to the DVR and on-demand they try to avoid holiday weekends for series such as this. Of course they also dont want the rating numbers skewed due to people being on vacation and not watching during the main showing.

Not too odd. It was a holiday weekend most people are away and wouldn't watch during normal hourse or within the DVR time frame that includes those views within the ratings. I believe if a show is views on the DVR within 24 hours from the show it goes into the regular ratings!

 

[Gracie]

Wow. Just....wow.

Tonights show was....just...wow.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Crazy ass episode. Very shocking ending

 

[Gracie]

Yeah. I was not expecting that. But what pissed me off most was the wolf.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The Red Wedding

....and that's why I refused to watch this Season.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

The Red Wedding

....and that's why I refused to watch this Season.

When all the gay shit and child molesting shit comes up I leave the room. The show and so many others like it are deep enough that they don't need all the "cutting" edge let's get talked about bullshit To keep viewers.

 

[Gracie]

Sigh. All the Starks are slowly disappearing. This sucks. Big hairy ones. I was pissed when they off'd Sean Bean (Ned Stark). Now I am even more pissed off. I hate that nasty assed old man as much as I do Joffrey.
