This series needs a time skip asap. I'm hoping TWOW does it and then we get shadow assassin Arya and berserker Rickon with an army of wolves.

Whee! Season premiere tonight! Can't wait

How cute.
No piece of media/art "needs protecting", but that doesn't stop people from feeling the need to do it every day.
for next week's episode to see the reactions

Bit off topic but I've just been rereading ACOK, hilarious what a complete no hoper Renly is.
"Robb better check himself Cat, my host is huge. And on top of that my brother Stannis will join me with the lords of the Narrow Sea"
*a couple of minutes later*
"Sooo... Stannis has crowned himself King and is besieging Storm's End"
Did he seriously think Stannis would just be like, "yep, guess you're the king bro". Seriously? It's a good job Stan the Man had him killed, if such an idiot had become king they'd all be doomed.
EDIT:
Jonaerys confirmed?

He'll crush his enemies' skulls like walnuts.
Then eat the meat off their bones.

We're almost there. I'm watching the last few episodes of the marathon as a refresher.

This Arya / Hound on the road stuff is already good in S3. Can't wait to see more of it this season.

One of the oddest pairings for sure, but also easily one of the best.
It works well for me for the most part but if you're planning on watching tonight know that HBOGO has a habit of breaking during bigger episodes (premieres, finales - it was broken for a couple hours a few weeks ago when True Detective ended, for example).
Immediately when it starts airing on the east coast.

Cause I shared with the Unsullied thread, here's my dog Ghost.
He doesn't mind as well as his namesake.

So when does Jon get his dragon and when does he have sex with his aunt?

Red Wedding on the marathon right now. "Don't you want to teach little Ned Stark how to ride horses."

I caught up a non-book reader last night and we did the Red Wedding.
When I aired, I wasn't prepared, and last night I still wasn't prepared.
I'm thanking you now because I know you will update this thread like crazy with info. Always do a great job.

This is the first time I've watched it straight through since last season. It's brutal.
Steely is on it. I'll help out as much as I can, though.

Me too, I'd only watched reactions before. I thought I could handle it again, ugh. Nope.

Little over an hour left. I'm so happy to be able to participate in this thread with the show airing at the same time in UK/Ireland. Can watch your reactions along with the show live. I'm a man of simple desires.

Yep, I'm excited to follow the show live with GAF for the first time.
Sucks that it looks like Sky are only doing it for the first episode though. Judging by my facebook feed a lot of people are staying up for it so maybe they'll think about doing it for the rest.

What was their reaction? :O

He's a pretty calm dude and still jumped and went 'Oh fuck.' when the stabbing started.
Before that he was like 'Uh..uh...' when things started looking dire.

Sometimes I wish I had remained Unsullied until after season three, so that I would have been totally surprised by the Red Wedding. Of course, it shocked me when I read it, but there's just something magical about seeing it in live action that adds that extra punch.
My eyes are usually glued to the TV anyways which renders me useless in these threads during an episode. I will try to join in after it airs.

I enjoy watching the non bookies' reactions along with ours. It's fun.
Yeah samesies. On one hand reading was great and shocking in its own right, but i feel like watching would be fun.
I mean we know what happens but the show might end before we get to read the ending :\

That would be kind of cool actually, to have a merged thread where Sullied and Unsullied could discuss events in perfect harmony without the fear or being spoiled.
But yeah, I'd prefer to read it before I watch it. Oh well. Beggars can't be choosers I suppose.
Maybe one day when the show overtakes the books. I really don't want that to happen but at GRRM speed it looks like it.

It'll probably happen by season 6, unless George gets Winds out sometime in 2015.

Did he cry when Greywind died?

He was super quite.
I cried again
(Mostly because I wanted to see Greywind fuck some Frey's up like he did in the book)

I'm super excited for the inn scene. Valar morghulis.
I knew about the red wedding (i spoiled it for myself) and was still steam rolled by the way they did it in the show. I heard it's different in the books like Rob's wife was't there to die.

Me too. I guess they didn't have the budget to show a giant wolf fucking shit up. :/

Maybe they also didn't want to deal with the complication of the 'Robb warged into Greywind' theory.

Ahh, that's a good point!
Add me to the list of those delighted to be experiencing it at the same time as all you GAFfers across the (not so) Narrow (Atlantic) Sea. I'll be forcing myself to stay away from GAF and try to sleep as soon as the episode ends though... Oh who am I kidding, GAF is the first place I'll come running to as soon as those end credits roll

Wondering what this season will do with Rickon and Osha? The show had them go to Last Hearth, so any chance we see the Greatjon again? Or will they get diverted to Skagos by way of White Harbor?
I imagine they'll have to do something with them considering how the show has played up Osha's role in things.

Yeah, the show actually completely changed the character of Robb's wife. In the books, she's a member of one of the Riverlands' noble houses, in the show a foreign highborn lady.

I'm betting they won't be seen at all.
