    Great wrap-up last night. Sure gonna miss Ayra & The Hound, good fight seen. Still missing one pesky dragon. Need a new Hand of the King. Tyrion gets his first kill, and second. Lord Varys didn't look so good when he heard the bells. Stannis saves The Wall. And Bran gets to meet The Children. Now the long wait begins for next season.

    Good season ending show. Not sure why they spent all that time on Danerys, didn't seem to move her story forward. Do . . . Not. . . Mess. . . With. . . the . . . Dwarf! In the book he shot him in the bowel - while he was taking a dump. The smell was described as awful!

    Still hard for me to believe that Brienne could best the Hound in hand to hand combat, which of course didn't happen in the book.

    Now the wait until next season . . . . . . . . . . . . .

    I was out of town for the finale and couldn't find HBO anywhere, even got a lecture from a lady in a hotel bar who said the series was full of shame and disgust. Okay, Mrs. Nietsche, whatever you say. Finally, saw it a couple times now. Good ending with Arya sailing north, I'll bet she eventually rides a dragon along with the crippled Stark kid. Maybe the chubby kid with the Wilding girl at the wall will be the third. Anybody who's read the books and wants to PM me, I wouldn't be adverse to knowing. Kind of figure the crippled kid would be a dragon rider as the Children said he would never walk again but he'd fly. Pretty good speech by the Hound. I didn't think he came off as a **** in the fight scene, that Amazon killed a real tough guy way back in the beginning IIRC. Although I thought it was a weak moment in the plot when she just took off real quick-like looking for Arya, and then the Hound is yelling, "Kill me! Kill me!" real loud and she doesn't hear anything at all. Also, it was great that the Hand, who was always railing on the Imp about the ****, ends up with her, and she calls his name when she hears a noise causing the Imp to kill her. And then him. Couldn't quite make out if the Imp came through some secret passage to the Hand's living quarters. Its also so nuts that HBO always makes you wait so long for the next season.

    I thought Arya went South, She asked to go North and the Captain said no! No one wants to go north.

    I could be wrong but after she whipped out the coin and mumbled the secret phrase I thought the captain did her bidding.

    I think the Capt. mentioned that he was going to Braavos and that is what Arya decided she wanted to do rather than go north.

    She has wanted to go there because her "dancing master" was from there. Also, the killer Jaqen H'ghar is the one who gave her the coin and he offered to take Arya back to Braavos with him to teach her the secret ways of killing. She could end up a killing machine in time.

    chumlie, if you are looking forward to it, don't read any of the quotes from GRRM. Just sayin'.

    We dropped cable but I read that the HBO streaming service is going to be released in conjunction with the return of GoT, so that will be a must-have for me, for a while at least.

    Never thought about GRRM quotes till now. Season 4 will be in my hands tomorrow. May do the steaming too if not to spendy. Cut the cable years ago. One way or another I will be watching it. o:)

    Always such a long time between seasons. I wonder which season the show will get ahead of the books!

    saw a clip from the up coming season, Jimmy Kimmel had Arya on his show and they showed a short clip. she made it to Braavos and was at a Black and white door trying to get in, but the guy told her to go away.

    If the show follows the books, she gets in. And hold on . . .

    I read that this season is where they start making the biggest departures from the books, basically because they already veered some, and because they are starting to pass what has already been published. Doesn't look good for the next book to be completed this year.

    However, I actually think that's a good thing. I am in the middle of the last book and would prefer not knowing everything that is going to happen.

    I have watched all 4 seasons on DVD but do not have HBO. How can I watch Season 5 without having to add HBO to my Time Warner cable account? Thanks.
