talk about backfire lmao.
Cersei herself has committed many sins ofcourse. But some good acting from her again.

Wow the point completely flew over your head there.
I'm talking story wise, like the actual point of the scene. Because the threat of the poison is raised and then immediately dismissed in the same fuckin scene.
Joffrey did that, and it's one of the things that made the royal family unpopular. When did we see the Faith Militant terrorizing normal people? We saw them go after rich people in Littlefinger's brothel, and running a soup kitchen for the poor. But even if there's no general uprising, disbanding and disarming the religious fanatics now would involves a war between them and the Lannister soldiers with the Sept of the Baelor as ground zero.
No it doesn't. Last season Jeoffrey died in episode 2 and Dany took a city in episode 3/4. In season 3 Jaime gets his hand cut off in episode 3, and in episode 4 there's a rebellion in the Night's Watch and Dany makes a huge play and grabs 8000 unsullied and keeps her dragons too. In season 2 we had the shadow assassination of Renly.
This season we've had... Uh... Sansa being rapes I guess?
It really does seem like they paced things much better in previous seasons.
Of course.They're rich compared to the hungry masses.
We've only recently been introduced to the Faith Militant, though, we can't be too sure of just how much damage they've done prior to this season.Joffrey did that, and it's one of the things that made the royal family unpopular.

- I don't think the boy that littlefinger mentions was Cersei's nephew. My guess? Gendry is finally done rowing and allies himself with littlefinger! That would give littlefinger and the Tyrells a huge ace up their sleeves.
Season 1 uncovered a plot to murder the king, work to hide his true heirs and replace them with products of incest, the arrival of a threat unseen in centuries, the return of dragons, the ascendance of Dany, Robb's crowning as king of the north, and the clash of several great families and within them.I think that Seasons 1 and 2 are the weakest. In season 2, almost nothing happened until Blackwater in episode 9.
And what happened in the rest of the season? Things happening is not what makes Game of Thrones good. From day 1 the show has been about the characters.

Ugh, such an amazing conclusion to last night's episode but I'm feeling conflicted. Cersei is DONE. But, Lena Headey is my favorite actress on the show (she's the reason I tuned in and gave GoT a chance) so I don't want season 5 to be her last, it's such a joy to watch her as the Queen Regent ;_;
Also, where is Bran Stark again? I can't even remember the last time we saw him and Hodor & co. Was he even in season 4? Will we be seeing Bran again?
Bronn won lol.
Looks like he is gonna stay in Dorne.
foresaw Cersei getting captured a whole episode ago. she dug her own grave. It's going to be fun watching her comeback though.

Get rekt, Cersei.
Cercei being one of the worst offenders yet still going ahead with the brilliant idea of teaming up with the sparrows is either a massive plot hole or DGAF moment to destroy everything. Or maybe it was just poorly written.

Season 2 saw the north in open rebellion, Stannis v Renly, Stannis v Lannister/Joffrey, Jon meets the wildlings, Theon seizing Winterfell, Arya v Tywin and Jaqen, and Daenerys finding, being welcomed, and turning the tables on Qarth and the necromancers.
Power shifted so much in those seasons and the characters were better written and steadily growing.
If you think those seasons were the weak ones, well, we really want Game of Thrones to be about entirely different things.
Went back and watched a couple of scenes in previous seasons, it seems like this season was made by entirely different people, so weak compared to past.
It took 7 episodes for something substantial to happen.

It seems the problems stem from the 2 books this season is about. Book readers complained about this period being a slosh as well. If this season really is based on 2 books I can't imagine how tedious it was.

I can't believe people are giving the Snakes a pass because breasts.
They still suck.

I hate that Religious fanatics group. They slow everything down and I can't help but thinking they'll be gone in a few episodes and never be spoken of again.
I'm finding a strange phenomenon.
It seems this episode was the best on of the season by all accounts, but what was different in comparison to the others?
No, it's not the writing or the locations, its the nudity! Nudity is the key to an amazing episode! There can be no doubt, this connection is solid.
Tommen needs to take command or he's not going to last very long.

I know a lot happened in Season 1. That's not the reason why I think it's weak, I just felt that a lot of exposition was fitted in in a very clunky manner. The show is much more sophisticated at it now.
Also, the same number of events you listed for season 2 can be listed for season 5. Stannis prepares for a fight with Roose Bolton. Barristan ends up dead, with Danaerys having a long awaited interaction with a major character. Jorah contacts Greyscale, Jon is made Lord Commander, executes a prior Lord, then starts a rift between the Night's Watchmen and himself by siding with the wildlings. Also, a very important decision is that the wildlings are finally going to be shifted south of the wall. Things are building up to a head in Winterfell with the Boltons, Stannis, Brienne, Sansa and Littlefinger all headed to the same location. Cersei, Margaery and Loras are all imprisoned by the high sparrow. Really, a lot has happened this season; it's just that there hasn't been any one outright brilliant, which will probably come in spades from next episode onwards. Also, it's worth remembering that Season 3 also really only had three really good episodes until episode 8 of the season (and it even had a very sub-par finale). This season has also had three great ones (Kill the Boy, High Sparrow, and The Gift), and will likely have a spectacular finale from the way they are hyping it up.
As a book reader, most of the problems this season come from things that arent even in the books.
Would it stop you from complaining about peoples opinions?This is one of the most depressing posts I've ever read because it is actually serious.
" a lot has happened this season "
kill me now
This show used to be so incredible.

QFT, All they had to do was follow the book and the season would have been 100x better.
Besides Tyene in the last episode, there's nothing memorable about this season.

Does anyone else have a strong desire to rewatch the entire series after this season is over?
I feel like I've missed on a lot of subtle references and it's getting worse as the show continues. I've forgotten so many things that happened earlier in the series that I feel like a full rewatch would be beneficial, especially heading into season 6.
