    One thing I worry about is you have almost 4-5 different shows going on. Without trying to get into spoilers you have Arya, Theon, Jon Snow, Lanisters, and targaryan. Each episode can't fill the story plot enough although I think this season has been heavy with the lanisters already.

    Think I'm a bit sick, I could watch a whole hour of Roose doing his thing and Theon just getting more and more broken, when is he at his most brokenest?? <laugh>

    It's true though, like Bron training up Jaime at the base of the cliffs, would have liked to see more of it, and we didn't even get any wall or Daenerys action this week. Not good enough.

    yet it was still a good episode! Wonder if this is the type of stuff that will seperate it from the greats as the show keeps going. Plenty of material though. The way the last season ended, I saw a different show that was going to be coming but so far, not seen one dead ****er walking about!!!

    Anyone ever seen tv show Cheaters?

    trashy American thing where what we'd call chavvy couples get an undercover spy to spy on their other half who they think are "cheating" on them, then they confront them in the action. Usual stuff is just a load of shouting swearing (which they bleep out despite it being on at 11pm) so can't hear much of it.

    This woman just caught her bf in a toilet ****ing another woman though <laugh>

    On CBS Reality.

    It is horribly addictive <laugh>

    They've got a new presenter now, the guy in that clip isn't doing it anymore but he was 100 times better than this new guy who seems to goad them on a bit. Joey actually seemed like he cared, this guy just wants to make things more exciting.

    Weeeeeeell, that all depends on what you want, meth manufacturers and fast food chicken shops in New Mexico or swords, dragons and treachery in fantasy land. I'd go for BB as it's finished so you'll get a conclusion.

    GoT is a lot better than BB. BB is good but very over rated in my opinion. GoT is excellent. Although comparing the 2 is so hard as they couldn't be more different if they tried!!

    Personally I'd watch 'The Wire' if you haven't seen it yet <whistle>

    GoT has a lot of action - battles etc etc. Whereas BB is easier to watch as it's kind of like a dark humoured Soap Opera.

  16. I'm half way through season two of BB. Its good and definitely watchable but also over rated IMO

    Agree with Gz viz BB, it's very good and very entertaining but also very over-rated. GoT and BB are different beasts completely, both have really high production values, GoT is obviously more lavish and grand, plenty of hot naked chicks, gratuitous gore and violence and magic and ****. BB is much more focused being based in one place and about the activities of mostly one family and how Walt draws (stray dog) Jessie Pinkman and the criminal life closer to them, it's also interested in exploring morality whereas on that front GoT just lets anything fly. BCR and myself were going on about how GoT almost has too much content to fit into (sub) one hour episodes. You don't see enough of the vast array of characters, but often less is more.

    The first two seasons are fairly poor compared to the others. Gets better every season.

  19. that's good to hear as I'm losing interest ATM. Not watched a episode for almost a week as I thought the break may reignite my interest.

    Going cold turkey with Arrow though <laugh> I watched forty episodes in twelve days, then had to wait a week for s2e18. there's been a two week break to s2e19 <grr>

    That's why the books are better than the tv show imo. Its far too epic to fit into a tv series.
