Game of Thrones 3x10 Mhysa

By s. Monday, June 10, 2013 , 34 Comments
They've made a huge mistake. That is the first thought I had after seeing the finale to season 3 of Game of Thrones. I usually defend the writers but I don't know what they were thinking - Mhysa contains some of the worst decisions they have made in the show so far. To illustrate how much of a wasted opportunity that finale was - before seeing it, I'd say season 3 is the best season of the show so far. After seeing it, season 1 still holds that honor.

Game of Thrones 3x09 The Rains of Castamere

It is here. The dreaded and anticipated Red Wedding has happened and we are left with all our anger and grief. I'd be at loss to think of a sequence that I consider more cruel or more shocking. George R.R. Martin books were filled with prophecies and signs written in a way that as I reached that chapter I still didn't know what will happen. And then everything fell into place.

Game of Thrones 3x08 Second Sons

By s. Monday, May 20, 2013 , 32 Comments
When the writers stay close to the books, great things happen. New episode, Second Sons, was definitely a step up from last week's disappointing episode. We got fewer storylines here, but each of them had a nice pay-off, a lot of great acting and yes, even shy glimpses of hope. I saw a lot of people complain about the lack of great scenes with Peter Dinklage this season. Well, I guess they are all happy now.

Game of Thrones 3x07 The Bear and the Maiden Fair

By s. Monday, May 13, 2013 , 22 Comments
What is this saying? "It's always calm before the storm"? Well, apparently in season 3 of Game of Thrones things have to get really lame before they become great. Or at least I'm hoping it's the explanation for the quality and the content of the latest episode. The Bear and the Maiden Fair, the episode that was written - for the third time in series's run - by George R.R. Martin is unfortunately the worst episode of the season.

Game of Thrones 3x06 The Climb

By s. Monday, May 6, 2013 , 22 Comments

This week's episode of Game of Thrones wasn't quite the ride as thrilling as last week's, but we did get plenty of amazing things including one of the most breathtaking shots in the whole series and a shocking death, for book readers and non book readers alike. Unfortunately, we also get to see Sam and Bran.

Game of Thrones 3x05 Kissed by Fire

By s. Monday, April 29, 2013 , 22 Comments

Every week I think two things just before the new episode of Game of Throne airs - there is no possible way they can top last week and there is no way Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Gwendoline Christie can possibly deliver even better performances than in the last episode. And every week, I'm wrong.

Game of Thrones 3x04 And Now His Watch is Ended

By s. Monday, April 22, 2013 , 30 Comments
Last night's episode of Game of Thrones was easily the best in this season. In fact, while it's not as great as Blackwater, I'd rank it among the best episodes of the series so far. The amount of intrigue and politics reminded me of season 1. Also perhaps the show runners should see the correlation - no random tits - better quality of the episodes.

Game of Thrones 3x03 Walk of Punishment

Dear HBO,
You seem not to realize it, but it's really not that hard to see tits. I'm a woman. If I want to see them, all I have to do is look down. Here they are. Every woman who watches Game of Thrones can do so too. And as for guys, I'm sure if they google it, they'll see it. So why do you have this obsessive need to infest my favorite show with tits?

Game of Thrones 3x02 Dark Wings, Dark Words

By s. Monday, April 8, 2013 , 16 Comments
Ladies and Gentlemen, forever remember April 7th, 2013 as the day when we got to witness Game of Thrones episode without bare tits and brothel scenes. That's right. 57 minutes and not one brothel scene. This is mindblowing. It is quite telling how this is more noticeable than the lack of Khaleesi in this episode.

Game of Thrones 3x01 Valar Dohaeris

I didn't think they will do it. I didn't think they'll mange that. But yes, they managed to show tits in the season premiere of season 3. Not just tits - tits in a brothel. And Bronn almost taking off this chick's panties with his teeth. HBO, you are nothing if not persistent.
