Am I totally misremembering the book? Stannis is obviously gonna save Jon from Mance next week, is that what happened in ASOS?

Stannis shows up later in the book.

 

[DrForester]

The giants were pretty awesome, need some Wun Wun next season. Glad to see Ghost in action if only for a little bit. Poor ole Green and Pyp. Not really liking how they turned Slynt into an incompetent coward for no apparent reason, but at least they didn't kill him like I thought they were about to.

I kind of wish they had killed him. I think it will be far less meaningful when Jon kills a coward than Jon killing an asshole.

 

[The One and Done™]

What an amazing episode.

 

[Massa]

10 minutes of Sam in a 50 minute episode...lmao.

Next thing you know GRRM will make him a POV character or something, lol.

 

[schuelma]

Man, I was getting really worried they were going to skimp on STANNIS.

Glad they are keeping it until next week.

Well done.

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

All my hype is gone

Grenn Pyp Alliser and Ygritte are dead

Fucking terribad acting from Jon Snow's

 

[LordCanti]

Great episode though I was almost certain we'd see The One True King of Westeros.

We knew the kid was going to do her in weeks ago, but it was a nice moment.

Great CGI, great action sequences (dat anchor!), etc. Very well done. I hope all non-book-readers stay off the internet for the next week.

 

[Vyrance]

Fantastic episode. Disappointed that we have to wait to see Stannis til next week, but damn if it still wasn't great.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

All my hype is gone

Grenn Pyp Alliser and Ygritte are dead

Fucking terribad acting from Jon Snow's

Is Alliser dead though? He was dragged off but did they confirm he died?

 

[Chris R]

I called Stannis not showing up this week.

Now to wait for the episode to show up on HBO Go so I can watch it

 

[Fuzzy]

After seeing this episode I kinda wish I went down to get tickets for the theatre showing of episode 10 here in Toronto next week.

 

[Incandenza]

PYP AND GRENN NOOOOOO

Next week is gonna be bananas. Stannis, Wherever Whores Go, and Stoneheart in one episode? Woah.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

I kind of wish they had killed him. I think it will be far less meaningful when Jon kills a coward than Jon killing an asshole.

True.

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Is Alliser dead though? He was dragged off but did they confirm he died?

Must've missed that part

Glad to see Tormund is alive at least

 

[illmatic24]

Next week's episode is going to be amazing. And people are going to flip their shit when there's no Stoneheart, haha.

 

[toddhunter]

Told you no Stannis, they were always going to stretch it out.

 

[dubq]

Holy fuck the internet is going to EXPLODE for episode 10 next week. ALL THE THINGS!

 

[Lkr]

Holy shit how do you fit everything in next week?

 

[m_shortpants]

Told you no Stannis, they were always going to stretch it out.

Or they don't want to end on garbage like they did last season.

 

[Cornballer]

Holy shit how do you fit everything in next week?

At least it's an extended 66min episode next week.

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Hopefully less Dany and more Stannis

 

[dubq]

Is Alliser dead though? He was dragged off but did they confirm he died?

I think they just hauled him off, he's probably going to get treated by Aemon.

 

[Showaddy]

Welp I guess now we know what the producers were talking about when they said the finale would have their most expensive scene ever.

 

[DrForester]

This should have been the credits song.

 

[fallengorn]

I dug it. I liked the one-shot that had of Castle Black.

RIP Grenn and Pyp. They saved them the fate of not being around for Jon's untimely demise.

 

[Valhelm]

Great episode though I was almost certain we'd see The One True King of Westeros.

Dude, we saw like 40 minutes of Jon.

 

[dubq]

I was fine with Pyp getting RIP'd, but Grenn too? Damnit. At least we still have Edd.. though he needs to be more Dolorous!

 

[PhoenixDark]

At least it's an extended 66min episode next week.

Wont 6 of those minutes be "previously on GoT" and the intro?

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

I think they just hauled him off, he's probably going to get treated by Aemon.

Which is crazy since I figured of all the Night's Watch guys, he'd be the one the show would kill off, not Pyp and Gren.

 

[Zabka]

That was fantastic. Really surprised they held Mance and Stannis for next week.

 

[Vyrance]

I'm starting to think that maybe Stoneheart won't be in next week's episode, lol. Not sure how they'll be able to fit everything into the finale.

 

[shadowkat]

All the things next week. :O

 

[m_shortpants]

Hopefully they don't recap Stannis and Davos...but I know they will.

 

[DrForester]

Dude, we saw like 40 minutes of Jon.

 

[Cornballer]

Wont 6 of those minutes be "previously on GoT" and the intro?

Probably, though it's still a significant increase from what we usually get. There's always a long previously and intro.

 

[SaintGalgo]

It seems even more likely now that LSH will be cut. This sucks.

 

[Emerson]

Really great episode aside from the place they chose to end it which I feel was a really bad idea. The amount of shit they have to cram into next week's episode is unreal.

Should be a fantastic finale though I guess.

 

[LProtag]

Pyp, Grenn, nooo.

I expected Stannis too.

Fucking great episode though.

 

[Altazor]

DAMN that was good. Poor Jon, now he's got no friends (save SAM THE SLAYER who was fucking Alpha this episode) and no lover ("you know nothing, she sighed dying" U_U)

And I can't even begin to think how they'll resolve EVERYTHING in the next episode: Jon and Mance's adventures/STANNIS!!, King's Landing stuff, dragons getting locked up, Brienne and Pod's adventures (maybe?), Sansa and Littlefinger's puppeteering (maybe?), Arya and The Hound's goodbye. It's going to be PACKED.

 

[CoolOff]

Wont 6 of those minutes be "previously on GoT" and the intro?

It's more than 6 extra minutes. This one was clocked as 56-57 I think, so we should get 8-10 minutes extra.

 

[Jackson50]

That episode was spectacular. And next week should be even grander. The sweeping shot of the ground battle was beautiful.

 

[shadowkat]

I'm starting to think that maybe Stoneheart won't be in next week's episode, lol. Not sure how they'll be able to fit everything into the finale.

It's a pretty quick scene in the book. All it has to be is the last shot.

 

[Showaddy]

Stoneheart reveal will be a quick scene so it should be the last shot of the season.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Dude, we saw like 40 minutes of Jon.

I think we got more Sam in that episode than Jon.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

It seems even more likely now that LSH will be cut. This sucks.

Yeah... There is just so much they have to cram into next episode.

 

[toddhunter]

Wont 6 of those minutes be "previously on GoT" and the intro?

Hopefully at least 5 minutes of reminding the audience who Catelyn was and zooming in on her cut neck.

 

[m_shortpants]

Stoneheart reveal will be a quick scene so it should be the last shot of the season.

They HAVE to do it...it shouldn't take more than 5 minutes of lead up.
