    I finally watched last weeks, let alone tonights. I reckon i would have been better not hearing of it and watching it cold. I felt in general it was good but the caslte black internal fight was not great.

    It's not as good a show as it's cracked up to be, mostly by fan boys and girls. This Bran Stark storyline I could really do without, an absolute load of random guff. Returned with a vengeance tonight as you'll find out.

    Was very disappointed with the GoT finale to be honest.
    2 Major things missing from the book.
    One can be introduced next season I guess, but that will make it lose its impact.
    The other is now impossible to add due to the events of this episode.

    Tyrions scenes were all rushed and executed very poorly (no pun intended).

    Brans scenes was inexplicable!! cant really say more than that without giving away spoilers.....

    Did enjoy the one on one fight scene we got between those two characters though! <ok>

    Spoilers boyo!

    That sums it up quite nicely... I hated how they messed around with the timeline/sequence of the battle at the wall as well. Daenerys is getting annoying fast as well. That's a really repetitive storyline actually right down to the fact that the same thing happened with Drogon as has happened in a previous episode (albeit escalated slightly... you'll know what I mean).

    Yeah I get ya.
    This is the first time I have been sorely disappointed with the show.
    I mean there have been a few episodes that haven't quite been as good as others, but this is the first time I was actually angry and disappointed with the show!

    Semi Spoiler for non book readers.....

    [NSFW]How can they leave out LSH? WTF! And the whole Tysha reveal with Jaime and Tyrion!! Bull****[/NSFW]

    [NSFW] Think LSH might have been too gory what with the whole slit throat, semi-decomposed in a river look, either that or there's already enough zombification going on with The Mountain being experimented on and the whites. Most viewers probably won't even recall Tysha, I'm sure they did have her in it way back in the earlier seasons.[/NSFW]

    [NSFW]Yeah Tyrion told Bronn and Shae the story in Season 1, and it was brought up twice last season, once when Tywin told Tyrion he was to marry Sansa "I WAS wed once, or dont you remember?", and again between Bronn and Tyrion "Shae is a whore! How did marrying a whore work out last time?".
    If LSH is excluded from the show then that is complete Bullshit. I will be so pissed. It was the biggest WTF moment for me in the whole of the books, and was what i was most looking forward to all season![/NSFW]

    [NSFW] Think they're holding off with her till next season, I know bringing her in now corresponds more with the books but for a TV show in terms of plot it maybe didn't make too much sense bringing in a 'new' character so late in the day. What irks me is most is how they've altered the Arya storyline, I don't think they're getting across how badass she is now having basically been in training to become a stone cold killer all throughout her travels. I know there's her initiation with the faceless men to come in Braavos but that change in her character hasn't really been explored enough for me.[/NSFW]

    Used to love Kitchen Nightmares but find it very formulaic and obviously staged these days so don't bother with it. It's always been set up with the various scenarios but the US edition is extremely samey from episode to episode.

    I like the first Underworld movie!! The sequels all sucked, but the first one was pretty good, despite their being 0 chemistry between Kate Beckinsale and Scott Speedman.
    100 minutes of Kate Beckinsale in a leather cat suit? That alone is worth one viewing!

    Plus Bill Nighy is awesome in everything he is in...
