This has gone so far away from the actual story, I don't know how George can continue to write the story.

George hasn't done so well with the story lately (last book). I'm interested to see what the series writers do.

I fell off a few eps back - wasn't really holding me - individual storylines are still interesting, but I'm not feeling it for the whole thing.

It is possible that's because I still have a headful of Lost and POI - am rewatching both with Ma. I'm going to give it another go this week I think. I have enjoyed each ep as I watched it - just hasn't got under my skin the way it usually does.

Last night's episode will get under your skin. In a way you like or not, I don't know. But it will get there.

The screams were horrible

I suppose a true film critic might say it was cheap emotional manipulation, but that episode made me feel more than anything I've seen since G'Kar/Londo scenes in Babylon 5 (and pooh to anyone who discounts G'Kar/Londo scenes on B5).

Not just the scene in question, but the sense of wonder from Danerys and Tyrion's perspective in the final scene. Those two scenes really worked together - wind you up tight, and then release the tension.

I hope the books don't go where they went with Stanis.

The last two episodes really grabbed me which is good because I'm waiting on Vikings.

This seasons started slow, but is tying it up strongly towards the end. Last two episodes were incredible: Hardhome was thrilling and Dance of dragons was kind of a well made emotional roller coaster.
